Spraypaint a stencil birthday card

Salutation,
here is a small abstract on how to create a special spraypaint birthday card with a self-made stencil.

What do we need:
» vectorizable-worth images
» paper+paperboard, cutter, cans of desired colors
» repositionable adhesive (important)
» good mood & patience, patch for the dilettantes

What have I done:
1. vectorized and rearranged the desired images
2. printed an outline-verison on white paper
3. fixate it with the adhesive to the paperboard
4. spend around 3 hours to cut it (depending on detail and size of your image)
5. separating the white print from the paperboard again
6. Stencil done *whohoo

Creating the card:
1. Create a nice background for your stencil (girls often like pink!)
2. Cover your card with your previously made stencil and punch color through it

Wow - doesn’t look as bad as I imagined as my first attempt.

Added a couple more individual details to it and tryed
to cover the gift with the final product :D

Voila, mission accomplished. Sparkling eyes and
a extra steady hug is garanteed.

More to come …
