Review on Enhance Your Craft Projects with the Tim Holtz Layered Blossom Stencil by Stampers Anonymous by Sasha Hsiao

This stencil and the Wildflower Layered Stencil are my FAVORITES! I like how they look when used separately and I like them both used in the same project. CUTE! I will accept that I have too many stencils. Okay, art supplies in general. (I don't have a husband to tell me to stop buying these things haha) It's the same quality that Time Holtz, Stampers Anonymous and Ranger are known for. The Mylar stencil material is the ideal thickness: the stencil is strong, the design is fully cut out and thick enough to apply modeling paste (or any other texture) very easily. He is strong, as much as there can be a template that has more negative space than positive. I've always had problems with stencils made out of cheap mylar - the small parts of the pattern (hanging or protruding parts) will always flex or allow the material you're working with to pass under the stencil. This doesn't happen with the Tim Holtz stencils I use, and there were no problems at all with this stencil in particular. You have to be a lot more patient and careful than me when cleaning your stencils so your stencils don't end up with little bent bits like you normally would. (Which is my own fault - using a toothbrush, especially an electric one, is overkill in this case. A little.) Easy and quick to clean. Holds up well - the picture is at the 92. Times as clear as the first time - Mylar plastic does not degrade. Haven't found an art object that doesn't work well with them yet - besides adding textures, I like to use watercolors on the texture paste I use (I really like Faber-Castell's Whipped Spackle - a new edition for me, this is just STONE! ), and then soak up the paint from the edges with a paper towel to make the design look like it's melting onto the board. I can't imagine the stencil trend slowing down anytime soon, making them a great investment with truly endless uses. Making art is fun when quality materials are used - and it's perfect for this category! s merges with the board.
