Notes
With your metallic silver Sharpie, fill in the stencil slowly. I didn’t notice any bleeding, it came out nice and sharp (get it? pun intended) The Sharpie will not dry quickly. It’s been 2 days and will still smear in some spots so remove the vinyl carefully, very very carefully! The nice thing is that if it does smudge a little, you can rub it and it’ll come right off since it’s a vinyl fabric. Although you can’t touch it (and why would you want to since it’s to display!) it sure is pretty to look at.
