Some of them are a lot easier then others. The ones that I cut out are much more time consuming. I keep my eyes open for things that I can use for stencils which are the easy ones, I would rather spend a few dollars on something then spend 15+ hours cutting out the same exact shape. I only cut patterns when I don't have something that will work.

Yeah that's one of the reasons i've been dreading putting together a halftone stencil. A.D.D. would kick in a quarter of the way thru. I guess i'll have to keep and eye out for something that will work i guess. Thanks.

If you are going to spend the time doing it, cut it on something durable, that way you can reuse it on future projects. You never know when a pattern will come in handy. Over the years I have made and collected a number. They come in really handy sometimes.

Thank you. You are to kind, it is far from perfect. Well the process by which I work is a little different. I taped off all the black and then painted each separate color area. Each of them ends up being two or three layers. Some of the gradient stencils I can use more then once. All told it ended up being about 17 layers I think So one of these takes me a while to do. Since the black is taped off it makes the painting one of a kind, I can't recreate it exactly ever again.
