Our stencil sheets are made from a medium weight stencil film. They can be machine cut, die cut, or paper punched and used with wet and dry applications. The see-through quality of stencil sheets, makes stencil placement easy—this is especially useful if you are layering images. Stencil sheets are the most durable way to go if you are hoping to reuse a stencil over and over again.</p><p style="border: 0px; font-family: inherit; font-size: 13px; font-style: inherit; line-height: 1.85em; margin: 1.3em 0px 1.625em; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"><strong style="border: 0px; font-family: inherit; font-size: 13px; font-style: inherit; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"><a href="https://www.closetomyheart.com/retail/Products.aspx?CatalogID=218&utm_source=blog&utm_medium=augustpost&utm_campaign=stencils" rel="noreferrer noopener" style="border: 0px; color: #30a1b0; font-family: inherit; font-size: 13px; font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;" target="_blank">Cardstock</a></strong>. Stencils cut from cardstock have a limited use but are very economical. Placement can be tricky, however, since you can’t see through the stencil. Cardstock is great for edge stencils and positive shapes.</p><p style="border: 0px; font-family: inherit; font-size: 13px; font-style: inherit; line-height: 1.85em; margin: 1.3em 0px 1.625em; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"><a href="https://www.closetomyheart.com/retail/Product.aspx?ItemID=10313&utm_source=blog&utm_medium=augustpost&utm_campaign=stencils" rel="noreferrer noopener" style="border: 0px; color: #30a1b0; font-family: inherit; font-size: 13px; font-style: inherit; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;" target="_blank"><strong style="border: 0px; font-family: inherit; font-size: 13px; font-style: inherit; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">Vellum</strong> <strong style="border: 0px; font-family: inherit; font-size: 13px; font-style: inherit; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">Paper</strong></a>. Vellum stencils work a lot like those cut from stencil sheets, but with one major drawback. These can only be used for dry applications and cannot be washed off.

Get the most out of machine-cut stencils by choosing layered shapes. Always keep all of the negative pieces and store them together with the stencil. You never know when you may want to use one of these pieces for additional texture, color, or dimension in your art. </p><figure class="wp-block-gallery aligncenter columns-1 is-cropped" style="clear: both; flex-wrap: wrap; list-style-type: none; margin: 0px auto; padding: 0px;"><ul class="blocks-gallery-grid" data-carousel-extra="{"blog_id":1,"permalink":"https:\/\/blog.closetomyheart.com\/2021\/08\/25\/tips-for-using-and-creating-your-own-stencils\/"}" style="border: 0px; cursor: pointer; display: flex; flex-wrap: wrap; font-family: inherit; font-size: 13px; font-style: inherit; list-style: none; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"><li class="blocks-gallery-item" style="align-self: inherit; border: 0px; display: flex; flex-direction: column; flex-grow: 1; font-family: inherit; font-size: 13px; font-style: inherit; justify-content: center; line-height: 1.75; margin: 0px 0px 1em; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; position: relative; vertical-align: baseline; width: 633.359375px;"><figure style="align-items: flex-end; display: flex; height: 432px; justify-content: center; margin: 0px;"><a href="https://i0.wp.com/blog.closetomyheart.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/Stencils-2-flowers-1024x683.jpg?ssl=1" style="border: 0px; color: #30a1b0; flex: 1 1 0%; font-family: inherit; font-size: 13px; font-style: inherit; height: 432px; margin: 0px; object-fit: cover; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; width: 633.359375px;"><img alt="DIY Stencils #closetomyheart #ctmh #diystencils #makeyourownstencils #stencils #stenciling #stencilling #cardmaking #scrapbooking #papercrafting" class="wp-image-15855 jetpack-lazy-image jetpack-lazy-image--handled" data-attachment-id="15855" data-comments-opened="1" data-id="15855" data-image-caption="" data-image-description="<p>layering-stencils</p>

Use basic shapes to weld images onto and to restructure shapes for easier stenciling. To create the cloud stencils, above, we welded cloud shapes (#M418DFA) onto a rectangle base. If your shapes don’t quite cover the size “base” you need or want, remember that you can easily duplicate and resize your shapes to make them work. When you are using a stencil like this one, move it around on the page as you add the color, or flip it over and use the back, to create variety from the one stencil pattern.</a></p><p style="border: 0px; font-family: inherit; font-size: 13px; font-style: inherit; line-height: 1.85em; margin: 1.3em 0px 1.625em; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"><a href="https://i2.wp.com/blog.closetomyheart.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/Stencils-3-clouds-1024x683.jpg?ssl=1" style="border: 0px; color: #30a1b0; flex: 1 1 0%; font-family: inherit; font-size: 13px; font-style: inherit; height: 432px; margin: 0px; object-fit: cover; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; width: 633px;"><strong style="border: 0px; font-family: inherit; font-size: 13px; font-style: inherit; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"><span class="has-inline-color" style="border: 0px; color: #daa105; font-family: inherit; font-size: 13px; font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">TIPS FOR USING DIE-CUT STENCILS</span></strong></a></p><p style="border: 0px; font-family: inherit; font-size: 13px; font-style: inherit; line-height: 1.85em; margin: 1.3em 0px 1.625em; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"><a href="https://i2.wp.com/blog.closetomyheart.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/Stencils-3-clouds-1024x683.jpg?ssl=1" style="border: 0px; color: #30a1b0; flex: 1 1 0%; font-family: inherit; font-size: 13px; font-style: inherit; height: 432px; margin: 0px; object-fit: cover; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; width: 633px;">4.

A few additional supplies I played with on this were Dina Wakley Media Fuchsia glossy spray and Asteroid Stickles Glitter Gel. The netting I used for some extra texture is dry wall tape that I rubbed with black ink. The large flowers were die-cut from vellum using the 3D Thin Cuts and colored on the backside with alcohol markers and then dabbed with 91% alcohol to make the colors run and blend. All the colored inks are Distress Oxide Inks.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-6PATRUOHLfo/YD1rtbMkUDI/AAAAAAAAEn4/pGVr0Im-IGMd7z1OGWOb39KGkT5V2bJgACLcBGAsYHQ/s2048/BF5E8BF2-27E3-4949-B197-E82BEE08CB84.jpeg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1453" data-original-width="2048" height="349" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-6PATRUOHLfo/YD1rtbMkUDI/AAAAAAAAEn4/pGVr0Im-IGMd7z1OGWOb39KGkT5V2bJgACLcBGAsYHQ/w488-h349/BF5E8BF2-27E3-4949-B197-E82BEE08CB84.jpeg" width="488" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div></div><div><br /></div><span style="font-family: arial;"><b><a href="https://kburrows.closetomyheart.com/ctmh/promotions/sotm.aspx"><span style="color: #741b47;">Winged Masterpiece</span></a><span style="caret-color: rgb(107, 107, 107); color: #2b00fe; font-size: 14.85px;"> </span></b></span><span style="font-family: arial;"><span style="caret-color: rgb(107, 107, 107); font-size: 14.85px;"><span style="color: #6b6b6b;"> </span>is available only through the </span></span><span style="caret-color: rgb(107, 107, 107); font-family: arial; font-size: 14.85px;">month of March. </span><span style="caret-color: rgb(107, 107, 107); font-family: arial; font-size: 14.85px;"><span face="">A</span><span face="">fter seeing all the great ideas in this blog hop, you're going to </span></span><span style="caret-color: rgb(107, 107, 107); font-family: arial; font-size: 14.85px;">want to add this stamp of the month to your collection.
