Some Stencil Fun

Sunday night, Reagan was being all artsy, working on some stuff for Piper’s birthday. She was having so much fun cutting up paper and stuff, that I decided to get in on the action. I got this great idea to draw and cut a stencil for the grip tape on my longboard. So I pulled out the pencil and x-acto knife and went to work. This is what I came up with.

It didn’t come out exactly how I wanted it to on the longboard, so I painted one of my freestyle skates, also. I found that it was tough to get the stencil to lie correctly because of the concave in the deck. Oh well. I don’t feel like it was time wasted.

  1. Nice work. I’ve always used spray adhesive on the back side of the stencil to keep it in the correct position. That might fix your problem with the concave skateboard.

  2. @Col: Adhesive definitely would have been the way to go. Unfortunately my arsenal of aerosol art supplies doesn’t run that deep. I was lucky to even be able to dig up some white spray paint. Hahahah
