Free Dog Stencil Patterns and A Cartoon Doggie Too!You must be a dog lover so I know you’ll go barking mad for this free dog stencil with the breed variety and don’t miss the Cartoon Doggie below!Just right click on the stencil and select print if you're on a PC or drag it into a document if you're on a MAC. 
Like I always say, if you want unconditional love, get a dog! When you think about the years of love and pleasure they give us how can you help but want to surround yourself with everything to do with them?
This dog stencil is a collection of designs I sketched over the years while I was making things for myself or for friends with special breeds. I’ve used them on tote bags, framed art, furniture, scrapbooks and most of all I like to use them for gift bookmarks (they are a requested item now!) Don't miss the project idea video at the bottom of this page! Alright since I mentioned bookmarks I have to tell you my neatest gift trick. Paint your dog stencil on a thick piece of paper. You can use the specific dog breed with the “I Luv My” text or dog bone or paw print - just mix it all up. Write the dog’s name and some other personal sentiment. Then cut it out in the shape of the book mark and laminate with a strip of clear packing tape on each side. Trim it out and woof - you’re done. You could even trim it with some of those cute craft scissors that have the scalloped edge. They are so cute and my friends love them. I hang them from gift bags instead of ribbons.
Well, there are so many breeds of dogs that I couldn’t put them all here. I’m working on a book that I hope to publish soon with many, many more breed specific stencils. In the meantime, if you didn’t see the likeness of your best friend here or maybe you have a beloved mutt (like my two) than maybe this cartoon puppy will fit into your stencil art. I hope so!Working with paper stencils like this free Dog Stencil has a few advantages. You can adjust the size of your paper stencil to fit the size of your project. Just take the page to a copier and reduce or enlarge. Then cut out the stencil openings. It's that easy and you can’t do that with a plastic stencil. Are you new to working with paper stencils? If so (or even if not) you should know that you can prepare your paper stencils so that they can be used again and again. Yeah! That’s right. The one you just printed can become a long term free stencil. It’s easy. Do you have some of that clear, wide packing tape? Just use it to run even strips covering all of the paper surfaces before you cut out the stencil. Burnish or rub the tape down to get the air pockets out. That’s it.For more on working with paper stencils see our article on

By the way, I like to do just the top side of the paper. If the bottom is slick it can encourage paint to bleed under the stencil and smudge your surface. The underside may get wet when you wash it but just let it dry and you can flatten it back out by storing it in a book.
