STEP 2: Cut out graphic from template to make a stencil. I put mine through my Cricut machine. You can also use an exacto knife or scissors to cut out the graphics.

STEP 3: Cut a piece of cardboard the size of your bag and insert into bag. This will keep the paint from bleeding through.

STEP 4: Tape your stencil to your canvas bag.



STEP 5: Use black paint and sponge brush to paint the stencil onto the bag.
