Fun with Stencils

I mark my lures with a little stenciled blue crab. I think I let it get a little out of hand! The yellow crabs don't show up too well on the photo of the wonder-crab lure.

Nice
Great pearl white.

Standing on the water, casting your bread
While the eyes of the idol with the iron head are glowing
Distant ships sailing into the mist
You were born with a snake in both of your fists while a hurricane was blowing

You can get sheets of those little stencils, all different kinds of stuff. I bought some a few years ago with the same intent just havent found my roundtoit yet.

Nice job.

Thanks for the comments. The eyes are just done with a Dremel and the tubular sanding disks. I think the stencils are made for fingernails. I picked up a pack with a coupon at Michaels or A.C. Moore.

Pour lighter fluid on one side an light it on fire.
