StencilStencil is a device or a template that can be repetitively used to create patterns or designs on a paper or cloth as well. One can draw symbols, alphabets, numbers, shapes, etc. with the help of a stencil. Stencils were first used for making coloured patterns and designs on a cloth, especially on silk. In many countries, the stencil colouring technique was used on playing cards. Interestingly, the first book that was printed with the help of a stencil was the Holy Bible.
