FAQs
What are the dimensions of the stencil?
The Tim Holtz Layering Stencil - Roses measures approximately 4 1/8 inches by 8 1/2 inches.
Can I use this stencil with texture paste?
Yes, this stencil is excellent for use with texture paste and other dimensional mediums to create raised effects.
How do I store this stencil?
It has a convenient hole at the top, perfect for attaching to a cable binder ring with other stencils for organized storage. Store flat to prevent warping.
What makes this stencil 'layering'?
Layering stencils are designed to be used in combination or on their own to build up complex designs and textures by applying different mediums or colors over previous applications.
Is the 'imperfect' design a defect?
No, the intentionally imperfect design is a characteristic of this stencil line, intended to add unique texture and an organic feel to your projects, rather than a flawless, uniform pattern.
What kind of projects is this stencil best suited for?
It is ideal for mixed-media art, card making, scrapbooking, journal decorating, altered art, and any project where you want to add a decorative floral element or texture.
Troubleshooting
Uneven ink/paint application
Ensure your applicator (brush, sponge) has a moderate amount of medium, not too much. Use a light, tapping motion for inks and paints. For sprays, use light, even mists.
Medium bleeding under the stencil
Ensure the stencil is pressed firmly against the surface. For porous surfaces, consider applying a light layer of gesso or a similar sealant first. Use less liquid medium.
Difficulty cleaning stencil residue
Soak the stencil in warm, soapy water for a few minutes before cleaning. Use a soft-bristled brush to gently scrub intricate areas. Avoid abrasive cleaners that could damage the material.
Stencil shifts during use
Secure the stencil to your surface using temporary stencil adhesive spray or repositionable tape. Ensure the surface is flat and stable.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: No specific setup is required. Simply position the stencil on your desired surface. For optimal results, use with a stencil brush, foam applicator, brayer, or spray mister.
Compatibility: This stencil is compatible with a wide range of crafting mediums including inks (dye, pigment, distress), paints (acrylic, chalk), sprays, texture pastes, gesso, and embossing paste.
Care: Clean the stencil immediately after each use to prevent medium from drying and clogging the details. Use warm water and a mild soap or a specialized stencil cleaner. A soft brush can help remove stubborn residue. Rinse thoroughly and allow to air dry completely before storing. Store flat in a cool, dry place, ideally with other stencils, perhaps attached to a cable binder ring.
