  1. Mind blown- AGAIN!
    ❓What is the name of the larger stencil at the top right? You used it for the small pink & blue flowers. I found all the others, thank you for the links. Can’t wait to get all the supplies and make your design (:

    1. The succulent stencil has 2 stencils in the package. I think that's the one that you're referring to.

  2. Hello,
    Are these thicker than regular acrylic paint?

    Thank you.

    1. Yes, they are. DecoArt also just came out with Traditions Tube Acrylics which are also amazing. I'd use either of these! Traditions are more opaque than the Premium Tube Acrylics. Just depends on the look you want. Have fun!
