Making a quick spray paint stencil, and using it on clothing

This idea came from my year 8 art assignment. The challenge was to make something ordinary extraordinary. While this isnt the best idea nor the most unique I like the result and am wearing my extraordinary pants right now.
A stencil is a useful tool to have as it can be reused and provides many different applications. It can be put on different surfaces and materials and will, with a good design and better application, provide clear markings that are attractive, formal, warning, or anything you can cut out.

Step 1 Materials

This bits really simple.  Basically you will need:
Cardstock or
Paper
Craft knife
Krylon Spraypaint

Optionally you need a computer and a printer

A thin card instead of paper will provide much better results.

that thunderbird/eagle/hawk design is really cool ! spray adhesive works well to stick a stencil onto cloth, especially fi theres lots of small areas that its easy for the spray to get under..
