Do It Yourself
While using these stencils, make sure that you use sponge instead of a brush to paint the larger area. Outline the design to highlight the features, apply dark colors first and wait for the previous layer to dry before applying the next layer.
Requirements
- Acetate or polyester
- Knife and scissors
- Marker
Steps
- To begin with, place the stencil material (acetate or polyester) on the downloaded design. Draw the outline with a marker.
- Place this acetate paper on a hard surface to make the next step of cutting safe and easy.
- Cut the outline of the design (along the dotted lines), using a scissor or a sharp knife. While cutting stencils, keep in mind to cut only the area that you want to be painted on the face.
