Adhesive Stencils for Etching
Help! I am looking for stencils that adhere to glass for etching.
I bought some Martha Stewart stencils today Michaels but they were not self adhering so my etching came out like a big blog because the cream went into the creases.
Any recommendations for self adhesive stencils and where to get them?
I was doing a nautical theme with the stuff if that makes a difference.
Re: Adhesive Stencils for Etching
Do you have an exacto knife and masking tape?
It's a little time consuming, but you get exactly what you want with your etching projects. I used the stencil to draw the design in sharpie on blue painter's tape and cut it out with an exacto knife.

Yes, using vinyl. I've done it and it works very well.

I could use the Cricut if I had the right cart for the project but unfortunately I do not have a cart that is nautical themed or anything related to that topic.
Oh man - that's a pain! I am sorry
I used clear contact paper to make stencils but I do not have a cartridge based machine. I think Reine's suggestion should work well for you with the masking tape...I've seen tutorials doing it this way. Good luck!
