    So I wanted a new sign for my home and I thought I'd show you. A really cute air dry clay tutorial for you next week. What would you like to see in future videos???

    Thank you so much because you helped me so much. I have been trying to do stencils and could not do them to save my life. I was even praying saying God please help me do these stencils. Lol. Yesterday after I watched you I went and gave it one more try and it worked. Come to find out, what I was doing wrong was not unloading my brush enough. All this time that's been what it was. Now my stencils turn out perfect because I learned to build it up. Thank you so much.you just don't know how much this means to me because I have been wanting to do stencils so extremely bad. Not to mention all the money I have wasted on stencils and I did not want them to go to waste. 💖💝

    • @RedRockingBird
      @RedRockingBird  Рік тому +1

      You could do and then varnish them, could make a little stencil, but I find the bigger the lettering the easier it is to cut diy stencils. Lolly sticks are always a good alternative to stencil onto. Best of luck.

      @@RedRockingBird got it. Just a tip for non lettering people doing stenciling crafts that print the patterns in sections , add an arrow showing top. Also for letters that are thick thin stroked it's easy to flip the pattern so mark those "front" to avoid getting the letters flipped. Common letters are W V M U A. Much love from Johannesburg, South Africa.
