Valentine’s Day Heart Stencil Craft Tutorial:
- To start your project, you will want to base coat your surface with Dixie Belle Paint in the color Fluff. Use your synthetic brush to cover the entire surface and let dry.
- Next, place your stencil on your surface and secure it with a piece of painter’s tape. Now you will use a makeup sponge to paint the stencil using Dixie Belle Paint in the color Soft Pink. You will see in the video tutorial that pouncing the paint onto the stencil works best. Don’t rub or smear the paint.
- Finally, you can add a bit of the color Peony to the outside edges to create an ombre’ look. This step isn’t in the video, but was something I added after the fact and I really like how it turned out. Here’s how you can add the Dixie Belle Chalk Paint in the color Peony ~ Paint like we did in the live, but before removing the stencil add a little of the Peony chalk paint to your sponge and blend with the soft pink. Be sure to go all around the outer edge being careful to not flip your sponge. You want to keep each end in the correct colors and not use the Peony in the center or inside of the heart.
