@@CookieEngineering thank you for making such great videos. I've watched at least a dozen before I found yours. I'm subscribed now and you are bookmarked as a favorite!
This is the same process I ended up using, but the lint roller and clipboard tricks are genius! I can't wait to see what else you post! Do you have an instagram, blog, etc.? I'm a hobby cookier and love learning new things.
What’s the difference with the result on a cookie if you use silk screen or the acetate film stencil? Your tutorial is very clear and precise by the way! Learned a lot!
Hi Mary, thank you for watching my video and the feedback. If I understand you correctly the silk screen does not require bridges. Bridges are required for what you call acetate. I also create stencils with stencil material, which is similar to acetate.
Thanks for watching. It really depends on how you care for your stencils. I have reused the stencils at least 100 times over 2-3 seasons. It's important not to submerge the stencil in water. I rinse with lukewarm water and pat dry with a dish towel.
Oracal says that the Oramask Stencil Film is a low tack removable water based vinyl, I am concerned about it's durability? Does anyone know approximately how many washes before it loses its tackiness, or begins to peel off? Thanks in advance.
I built a 3 piece in cricut design but did not center them. I duplicated 3 times then remove what I needed to remove the word or design in each one so that when I put them on top of each other the three pieces where placed where they fit on top of each silk screen to make the one design. On the video you centered each one so when you placed the stencils on top of each other at the end you could not figure out why they did not line up. This may help others. Show less
Great question Kimberly, thank you for taking the time to ask. I prefer stencil material or vinyl over HTV simply because of the price point. The same results are achieved with any of the three materials.
Loved your video and I just purchased my Cricut a few days ago. I can’t find the paper transfer you used in the video all I see is vinyl transfer film and it didn’t stick at all to the silk mesh. Can you share where you purchase it. Thanks.
Based on my research the materials I use are non-toxic. So not necessarily food safe, think of glitter or Elmer's glue. It is recommended that you do your own research, and determine if you want to use silkscreen stencils. I provide informational videos for the creation of silkscreen stencils. Thank you for watching my video and the quesiton. Happy creating.
Hi Briana, I prefer the vinyl against the cookie (mesh up). It's more of a personal preference. I run the stencils under warm water to wash/rinse. Pat dry with a dish towel.
what is the name of the stencil film, I have looked and there are seveal kinds. I used the cricut brand and I feel it wasn't sticky enf t stay on the silk screen.
Hi Catrina, it's really personal preference. When I use these materials I do not mirror the image, and place the stencil material on top of the silkscreen mesh.
@@CookieEngineering i know this is an older comment but i was wondering what you dont like about it please? i'm tying to decide if i want to invest in an airbrush for my cookies!? :)
@@teem9010 I just perfer royal icing with stencils, but I own an airbrush and I love it. I use it for stencils too, but mostly adding dimension to cookies.
@@CookieEngineering. I have a stencil..10 mil thickness...I want to add a piece of mesh....what kind adhesive could I use to do that....everyone's video s are using a circut with carring adhesive to it already..what would I use only having a 10mil stencil to start with ..tia
