Large Printable Letter Stencils
Stencil refers to a sheet of a certain material that has a specific pattern of hole on it. The hole lets the pigment enter the plate and the intacted side is to block the color to enter the object underneath. This makes the result well-defined. When it comes to a stencil lettering, it is a thin plate that has letters cutting shape. So, the result will show the shapes of the alphabet. To learn more about stencil letterings, we can download 8 inch letter stencils alphabet. This size is considered big. This is good for a beginner since smaller letterings need to be done as precisely as possible.
Before starting to create DIY stencils, we need to know how to use the stencil sheet first.
1. Stick the stencils on a medium that we want to add the lettering onto
Make sure we use easy-to-peel glue or adhesive so that the medium below won’t be messed.
2. Use sponge
Wedge sponge helps to spread the color evenly. The sponge prevents bleeding, the droplets of pigments stream randomly onto the medium.
3. Fill up the rest of the space smoothly
There is a tendency that the letters in stencils have some space inside the letters. So, it will create a look that the letters are not completed. To outsmart it, we can use a smooth paint brush and fill the blank space so the final result of the letterings looks seamless.

2. Prepare the following supplies: a paper, sticker, or mylar, craft knife, and cutting mat

3. Put the template below the media that we will use for a stencil
Remember, this is the step to help us begin the tracing. Make sure we stack the object, such as paper, sticker, or mylar, to be cut and the template without overlapping one of them.
4. Start cutting the material by following the outline of the template
Do this carefully so that the shape is perfect. So, the final result is defined clearly.
