Hello-

Recently a very good friend of mine fell in love with henna tattos.
I've never done it before, but I got a PPD free Tribal Black Henna
Kit from http://www.thehennapeople.com/ and figured that this would
be the way to get started.

Being that I am a bit of an artist, I'd really like to make my own
designs for myself and my friend. I've seen stick on rubber stencils
and the like for sale on-line, but haven't seen "blanks". I did read
somewhere that you can take contact paper, draw on your design, and
cut out the pattern with an x-acto knife. Is this the best way, will
it cause a skin rash when removed? Does anyone have suggestions for
getting computer printouts transferred to the blank stencil?
Anywhere to buy rubber stencil blanks, or blank materials
specifically for making stencils?

Any help, suggestions, or links to guides for newbies, would be
greatfully accepted. I thank you in advance for your help.

-David aka Isildur
