I have a friend who wants a cake that involves a red background with a black design. Those two colors are half the reason I bought an airbrush!

The logical solution would be a FBCT, but I don't want to have to dye the buttercream black. Blah! So a stencil seems like the right solution.

So... how to? With wax paper? Is there a better type of paper to use? I'm wondering if there will be a problem with airbrush color creeping its way under the edges of the stencil.

Mind you, I haven't tried this, but how about plain brown paper, similar to the kind used for paper bags. You don't want a waxy surface, the excess spray could run. Seems the brown paper would hold its shape and be easy to draw on and then cut out.
