Exploring the Art of DIY Stencil Creation: Using Die Cuts to Elevate Your Stencil Designs

Crafters, get ready to embark on an exciting artistic journey as we delve into the world of Bigfoot-themed stencil art. In this blog post, we’ll explore the innovative technique of utilizing the Bigfoot 2 die along with the Bigfoot Footprint stencil to craft a captivating scene through ink blending and masking. Whether you’re a seasoned crafter looking for a new challenge or a beginner eager to experiment, this creative project is bound to spark your imagination!


Creating Your Own Stencil


To kick off your Bigfoot-themed masterpiece, begin by securing the Bigfoot Footprint stencil onto your crafting surface. Then die cut the Bigfoot 2 die from some thin copy paper to use as a stencil. Blend through your makeshift stencil with black ink. Remove your makeshift stencil and then blend on greys and brown inks through the Bigfoot Footprint stencil. Remove the stencil and see your Bigfoot peeking through the footprint. The Bigfoot Footprint stencil is generously sized to fill nearly an entire A2 card front. It is the perfect starting point for building your scene.


A stamped sentiment from the Sentimental Sasquatch stamp set along with Gloss Black Sparkle Gems finish off the card.


Let Your Creativity Roam Free


As you embark on this Bigfoot-themed crafting adventure, remember that there are no limits to where your creativity can take you. Experiment with different stencils, colors, and techniques to elevate your artwork and make it truly your own. Embrace the joy of crafting and unleash your imagination with every brushstroke and blend of color.


So, gather your stencils, inks, and crafting tools, and let’s bring the mythical world of Bigfoot to life, one footprint at a time. Happy crafting! ~ Alanna
