Have you ever gotten stuck with the same old feeling when you reach for a stencil?
You may say “I’ve used this so many times” or “this is all I have” or “boring”… I’m very lucky to have such a variety of stencils for different looks in my art, but when I got my hands on the DecoArt Urban Ink tattoo inspired stencils, I honestly thought I hit the jackpot.
The new line of Urban Ink stencils from DecoArt are edgy tattoo inspired stencils with fonts and design elements that have inspirational quotes, words and beautiful imagery that when combined, they can stand on their own on any craft or mixed media art project. The picture shown is the “Beliefs” design.
You can check out more details at the DecoArt website.
