[@carolyntown9365]

Absolutely beautiful!

[@christinegurrera]

This is the stencil I have ready to go after a gift I have to complete! Great timing and I love the background 😊❤️ Thanks for the awesome lesson😊

[@StudioR12Stencils]

Yay! Thank you!

[@loribowen1295]

Wow! Impressive! I love all the different techniques ! I cant wait to try this! Thank you, Patty!

[@StudioR12Stencils]

Thank you Lori!

[@mermaid2997]

Love your channel and your stencils too!!❤

[@StudioR12Stencils]

Thank you!

[@dianedonato8121]

Love it. So much detail and the blending is great not to overwhelm. Definitely a fun project. Thanks for sharing.

[@StudioR12Stencils]

Thank you!!

[@norinemueller4588]

Another great videos and such a adorable project

[@StudioR12Stencils]

Thank you!

[@vickistroud9157]

This makes me want to sand over the one I already painted and start over. This is fantastic.

[@deeprose4]

It’s amazing, I really want to get this stencil and see if I can make it look as gorgeous as Patty did.

[@StudioR12Stencils]

You can do it!!

[@suebraun5978]

Loved the video so many great techniques

[@StudioR12Stencils]

Thank you!!

[@denisehall9044]

This is absolutely gorgeous! I have to admit, though, that Patty did so many things on the background that I wouldn't have thought to use all together because I would have thought it would look too busy, but it doesn't. It really makes the project pop! I love it!

[@StudioR12Stencils]

Agreed! When you think about color, texture, words, snowflakes, it sounds like a lot but they all came together so well.

[@denisehall9044]

@@StudioR12Stencils Yes, they really did! It's beautiful!

[@kellieventimiglia8792]

Loved the different techniques that Patty demonstrated on this snowman project. She explained each one perfectly. Thank you Patty.💕💕

[@StudioR12Stencils]

Thank you!

[@amysleik3885]

Patty, you knocked this one out of the park. Absolutely beautiful!

[@StudioR12Stencils]

Thank you!

[@patcoulson6025]

That background added so much to the whole project! Love it!

[@StudioR12Stencils]

Thank you Pat!

[@LAGg9035]

That background is gorgeous by itself. I am so ready to try all the techniques. Love how it turned out. Snowman ⛄️ came to life 😊 too.

[@StudioR12Stencils]

Can’t wait to see what you create!!

[@BarbaraMeier-c7q]

Love this! I have a few Christmas fairs coming up, these would be perfect! Not sure what to charge though! ???

[@StudioR12Stencils]

This is going to be determined by a lot of factors: Cost of wood where you live, supplies, stencil, etc. The time it takes you to paint it and how much per hour you want to charge. Plus the size of the area. In smaller areas, you may have to do a lower price compared to big cities. You can get on Etsy and see what people are charging for 4 or 6 foot signs and get an idea!

[@helgamertz8450]

Fantastic video ,I also love creating backgrounds! I ordered this on Amazon,I tried to oreder thru the Amazon link but wasn’t successful !❤️❤️❤️👍
