Raised 3D stencilling
In this Autumn Welcome Sign tutorial, in addition to my regular stencil technique, you’ll also learn how to:
- stencil 3D raised or embossed designs using TWO different mediums
- create a shadow effect to make your stencil look 3 dimensional
As I show you these tips using Essential Stencil’s Hello Autumn stencil (currently no longer in stock), you can apply these same techniques with ANY of your favourite stencil projects, using Essential Stencils HERE (use code IRESTORESTUFF & save 10%)
