Painting a tropical flower stencil as a solitary adornment or in the middle of a jungle of greenery is a great way to set the mood for your own private rain forest!
Just right click on the stencil and select print or save if you're on a PC or drag it into a document if you're on a MAC.
This stencil closely represents a hibiscus flower with a couple of green leaves. The ways it can be weaved into your arts and crafts is unlimited. I hope you enjoy it thoroughly!
This Tropical Flower Stencil is part of our extensive Free Stencils Collection. We have so many to offer that they are scattered throughout this web site. Please come back for all of your Stenciling Ideas. I'm sure you'll find everything you are looking for and a few surprises too.
Working with paper stencils like this free Tropical Flower Stencil has a few advantages. You can adjust the size of your paper stencil to fit the size of your project. Just take the page to a copier and reduce or enlarge. Then cut out the stencil openings. It's that easy and you can’t do that with a plastic stencil.
Are you new to working with paper stencils? If so (or even if not) you should know that you can prepare your paper stencils so that they can be used again and again. Yeah! That’s right. The one you just printed can become a long term free stencil. It’s easy. Do you have some of that clear, wide packing tape? Just use it to run even strips covering all of the paper surfaces before you cut out the stencil. Burnish or rub the tape down to get the air pockets out. That’s it.
Like I said earlier...there are countless ways to use stencils in crafts. One of my favorite ways it to cut the pattern out of fabrics to create appliques and then sew those onto just about anything (like purses, quilts, jeans, jackets...etc.). To find out more about this creative option go to Using Stencils to Create Appliques!
For more on working with paper stencils see our article on
Stencil Downloads.
If you think you’re going to become a downloadable stencil fanatic then get yourself some clear shelf liner paper to cover your stencils before cutting them out. It’s so much easier and it’s really not expensive at all. You’ll love the ease this provides.
By the way, I like to do just the top side of the paper. If the bottom is slick it can encourage paint to bleed under the stencil and smudge your surface. The underside may get wet when you wash it but just let it dry and you can flatten it back out by storing it in a book.
If this free tropical flower stencil was just what you were looking for then don’t miss these Cool Stencils and the Stencil Print Free lineup we have of all the free stencils with plans.
