I recently ordered a copy of this book by Mary Beth Shaw, the one and only original StencilGirl.
The book is great for both those just getting started with using stencils and for new ideas and projects for anyone who has already used stencils.
There are 18 projects in the book with wonderful step-by-step photos and instruction.
You will see many works of art by several contributing artists, such as the lovely piece below by Margaret Applin.
Who'd a thunk? Decorating cupcakes with stencils. I know I wouldn't have thought of this. Great idea.
All in all I think that if you are interested in using stencils in your projects, you will find lots of interesting ideas, tips and projects inside this book.
I've seen the book available at many online stores and you can also order a copy directly from the StencilGirl Products website.
