We are going to learn how to do a frame with a cardboard stencil.
Before we start you should read this 2 posts:
What we need:
- rolled paper tubes,
- rolled paper coils,
- cereal box,
- glue,
- scissors,
- craft knife,
- old paper,
- varnish, transparent,
- white paint, or any other color you like best,
- paint-brush.
- Roll about 60 paper tubes;
- Roll a few coils too, minimum 4 like the tutorial;
- Use the scissors to "unmount" the cereal cardboard;
- Keep the 2 larger pieces, one will be the frame back, the other will be the stencil;
- Use one of the big pieces and draw your image, the one you want to appear in stencil, in this tutorial is a flower, draw always on the backside;
- Cut it;
- Paint the front side with the color you chose, we used white;
- In the second big card piece, same size as the first one, glue the paper tubes, leaning against each other;
- Leave about 0,5in at the top and at the bottom, just like the image;
- Take you paper coils and glue them in the cardboard piece corner;
- Wait to dry;
- Cut the excess rolled paper;
- Apply glue both in the coils and in the stencil base;
- Glue the stencil to the base with the rolled tubes, just like the image;
- Press and let it dry, we used small paper clamps;
- Glue small pieces of paper around the edges of the frame.
- Let it dry;
- Varnish it;
- Let it dry again;
Et voilá!
Paper all the way!
Enjoy!
