Learn How Easy it is to Stencil Swipe

This week’s tag tutorial features a fun stencil swipe technique that creates a one-of-a-kind background. Instead of applying color through the stencil, the color is swiped directly onto the stencil itself and then transferred to the tag. The result is a beautifully layered design with soft, organic patterns that are different every time you create it.

After creating the inked background, I layered stamped tissue paper over the surface to add even more depth and visual interest. The delicate blue butterflies coordinate beautifully with the inked background, while the translucent tissue allows the colorful layers underneath to remain visible, creating a soft, dimensional effect.

The close-up image above highlights the beautiful visual texture created with this technique. The transferred ink produces subtle variations in color and pattern, while the layered tissue paper adds another level of depth, resulting in a rich, artistic background that is full of character.
