I've been seeing posts everywhere talking about the wonders of freezer paper stenciling. SOme of my favorites are here and here. I recently found some amazing fabric paint for an unbelievable price. I figured this was the perfect time to finally try it. However, I jumped the gun.
50 cents for the jar. How could I say no?
I was using my Mom's Cricut making some Thank You cards and I though, 'Why not use some thick paper for a stencil?' And off I went. I don't think anyone will be surprised when I say it didn't go exactly as I wanted.
I used black paper so, when the paint seeped under the edges, it darkened in places. Not a crazy amount but enough to notice.
I guess sometimes you have to do something wrong to see why you HAVE to do it right. My new plan is to do what I did last time EXCEPT use freezer paper and iron it to the fabric so the paint won't seep through and won't change color.
Post to come of the results.
