Book Description
Knowledge is power. That would be the motto of Lander University, had it not been snatched up and used to death by others long before the school was founded. For while Lander offers a full range of courses to nearly all students, it also offers a small number of specialty classes to a very select few. Lander is home to the Hero Certification Program, a curriculum designed to develop student with superhuman capabilities, commonly known as Supers, into official Heroes. Five of this year's freshmen are extra special. They have a secret aside from their abilities, one that they must guard from even their classmates. Because for every one person in the world with abilities they can control, there are three who lack such skill. These lesser super beings, Powereds as they are called, have always been treated as burdens and second class citizens. Though there has been ample research in the area, no one has ever succeeded in turning a Powered into a regular human, let alone a Super. That is, until now...

In The Complete Book of Stencilcraft, artist and teacher JoAnne Day has updated older stenciling methods and applications, and the result is an easily affordable sourcebook that enables even beginners to create a multitude of eye-catching designs.

Skills needed to cut stencils are easily acquired, and patterns can be applied directly to just about any surface or material, including floors, walls, ceilings, furniture, fabrics, canvas, leather, and tin.
