Hearts Clubs Diamonds Spades Stencil

Hearts Clubs Diamonds Spades Stencil - Reusable - 7.5 MIL (190 Micron) Thick Mylar

The symbols on a deck of cards – hearts, clubs, diamonds, and spades – are universally recognized. They are based on the traditional playing card suits of French cards, which have a history dating back to the 14th century. And now we have brought these symbols to you in a format that you can use for any DIY project imaginable with our Hearts Clubs Diamonds Spades stencil. Just think of creating your own handmade deck of cards, creating card art, or decorating a wall in your rec room where you host Saturday night poker. Or maybe you are decorating the set and making costumes for an Alice in Wonderland play. There is no limit to what you can do with our Hearts Clubs Diamonds Spades stencil, in part because we laser-cut the stencil in a range of sizes, including: 5” x 6” 8.5” x 11” 18” x 12” 24” x 18” 36” x 24” 48” x 32” 55” x 35” As long as you have the right paint for the medium, any surface is fair game, such as walls, glass, paper, canvas, concrete, metal, and wood. You can even create playing card t-shirts. There is so much you can do with the Hearts Clubs Diamonds Spades stencil. And the symbols are arranged in a neat pattern that you can paint all together to form a motif or individually to create completely one-of-a-kind designs. When you are ready to paint, simply secure the stencil in place and use the colors of your choice to create your art. You can go with traditional black and red or mix things up with some totally unique colors. And when you're done, you can easily wash this reusable stencil and store it away until you or someone you know needs it again.

Here are some advantages of using Mylar stencil material:

• FLEXIBLE: Mylar can wrap around cylinders and uneven or irregular surfaces, and can be rolled for shipping and storage.
• EASY TO CLEAN: Our Mylar is solvent proof, so cleaning up paint or ink is quick and simple.
• REUSABLE: Our stencils are built to withstand normal painting wear and tear, and keeping your stencil template clean is the best way to ensure a longer life.
• DURABLE: Mylar sheets are reputably the strongest type of stencil material, and maintains durability without compromising the pliable structure.

• Reusable as long as they are kept clean and well maintained

WHY DO WE RECOMMEND MYLAR?

As mentioned before, the best way to achieve a perfectly painted stencil with a very nice paint edge is to use a stencil material that is as thin as possible for your project. At the same time, you also want a material that wont absorb paint or any liquid because this will cause the stencil to deteriorate. A stencil made from paper, cardstock or paperboard will become saturated with paint or ink rather quickly, and this causes a crusty, uneven edge that can never be removed.

Another option for stencils, and one that quickly comes to mind when we discuss durability, is metal stencils. While these thick, unbendable stencils do have their place for some industrial applications where paint overspray and running doesnt quite matter as much, they can be very expensive and heavy to ship.

There are some other plastics that are used for stencil manufacturing, but these are typically cut with a die cutter so there is a limited amount of detail that can be achieved. And because this older, traditional process takes so much work and expense to set up for each stencil design, the minimum are often in the 1000s.
