if i were to make the stencil from scratch, what material should i use, plastic? thank you :) xxx

[CuttingEdgeStencils]

Yes, plastic is one option. I like to use a somewhat softer plastic like the one document folders sold in Staples stores are made of, its easy to cut with exacto knife. For finer stencils I used ordinary shelving paper which is essentially thin vinyl. You can also use cardboard or oilboard, but these stencils will not last long. Hope this helps! ~Janna

so cool! Can you do the sponge technique with the stencil? I want when i take it off, just that area has sponge depth

[CuttingEdgeStencils]

Thanks! Yes you can definitely sponge with stencil, but the result may be not as crisp, the image will have "sponged" look. I've done this technique many times on large stencils. Use spray adhesive to get crisper edges and less paint bleed.

I have never used a stencil. I would like to stencil BRICKS on a wall, having a rather rough appearance. Should I use a sponge, or would it be better to use a roller and do something to "rough them up" after painting the first coat?

Sweet!
