WHY WE LOVE IT

In this day and age of computers, word processors and graphics programs, it seems that hand stenciling posters and signs is a thing of the past. We love that this (unused) set of stencils allow you to create by hand again for a unique and retro look!

CREATIVE USES 

There are lots of clever ways you could use this set of stencils! Here are some ideas:

• Greeting Cards and Gift Tags – Use the various size stencils in this set to create custom, handmade greeting cards and gift tags for all your gifts. Your cards and tags will look like mini-works of art! You could even punch out the letters and use the letter as your gift tag.
• Journals and Scrapbooks – The stencils can be use to embellish journal pages, scrapbook pages, or even altered art projects. Use one or more stencil on each page to get the look you want. For example, for a journal page, use one letter to start the first word of a paragraph, then continue the paragraph using your own handwriting. 
• Unique Framed Art  – Punch out all the letters, then use the stencil sheet as a “matte” for a photo collage. Tuck photos behind each letter then frame under glass.
