4. Place the stencil where you want on the board. Choose a different paint (not watered down) for the heart or star. Make sure it is either darker or lighter than the paint wash, so that it stands out. Apply the paint lightly with a damp sponge. If there is too much paint, it will leach under the lines of the stencil, so less is better. You can always add more if necessary. Dab the sponge over the cut-out. When you take away the stencil, if paint has spread, clean it away using a cotton bud dipped in a little white spirit. Don’t worry about wiping away the wash around the edges of the stencilled design – that will be fixed later.
