Predominantly, the L’essentiel Embossing Stencil Paste<\/a><\/em> was created to make decorative raised stencils. Raised stencils look amazing on furniture and other decor items. Oh and let’s not forget in journals and artistic collages. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

How to make a raised\nstencil?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Raised stencils is a technique where you ladle an even paste over a stencil. When lifting off the stencil, the Embossing Stencil Paste<\/a><\/em> leaves a raised appliqu\u00e9. When dry, this can then be painted or antiqued with great affect.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Coloured raised\nstencils<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Have you thought about coloured raised stencils? That is an option too. You can add Botanics paint to the stencil paste to tint it. Just ensure you don’t dilute the thickness too much. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
