Celtic Stencils

Good Morning Guys!

I’ve added a set of 9 Celtic themed Stencil SVGs and Storage Envelope to the Store. 5 of the designs echo the cards in the Celtic Charm Collection but there are 4 extra designs including a second Celtic Cross, a square Knotwork Frame and 2 Knotwork blocks:

These stencils can be cut from stencil material like Mylar or just from regular Acetate that you may already have in your stash or even plastic packaging.

I recommend using a thicker plastic for dry embossing (with your die cutting machines) or adhere 2 thinner stencils together to acheive a deeper emboss. I recommend using thinner plastics when you wish to ink through your stencil with a blending tool to acheive a crisper edge.

When you ink, paint, spray, paste or glitter through your stencil you may need to add a little repositionable adhesive to the underside of your Stencil to acheive crisp results and avoid leakage, I used Stick and Spray by Crafters Companion.

If you chose to cut all of your Stencils at the provided size you can store them in the Storage Envelope included in the collection:

There are so many fun and inspiring stencil techniques on the internet which I encourage you to take a look at but I thought I’d share a few of my favourites:

Doily Thanks Card

Hi Guys!

Doily Thanks Card

It’s my Birthday Week so I thought I’d share a Freebie with you and I’ve made it a Thanks Card to Thank You all for all of your support. You guys are awesome!

Your Card comes complete with its own Envelope and I think you could easily swap out the Sentiment for any other and you’d be able to use this Card for any occasion.

You can find your Freebie at my SVG Store by clicking here :)

In other news, I’ve been a little quiet for a while as I’ve been busy moving my Freebie Cut File Archive over to the Store and I’m so happy to say that it’s all completed, they can now be found all in one place again. Offering my Freebies in the one format (SVG) means that I have been able to re-size and seperate all of the pieces in each project and save them individually, I also coloured them (and grouped the pieces according to colour) and tweaked a lot of the files for easier cutting too. Oh, and they’ve been bundled for quicker and easier downloading :)

Following my Celtic Charm SVG Collection, there is a Celtic Envelope set in the Store now and I have also compiled a set of Celtic themed Stencils too which will be in the Store soon, I just need to film the technique video which will have some suggested uses for them.

Ok, enjoy your freebie guys and have a great weekend! :)
