Hello all,
I’ve just got Photoshop CS and I’d really like to use it to make some stencils.
However the images that I want to make stencils are very small (approx 35 * 50 pixels each). They are block colour, black images on a white background (like a shadow – i’m not very good at describing!)
I’d like to enlarge them to a much bigger size – A4ish (but not exactly A4, I don’t want to stretch it too far one way so it looks wonky! Something I could print out on an A4 sheet of paper). However I know by doing this, it will turn out pixellated. That’s fine as I just need a big, general template of which to hand trace a stencil out of.
Can anyone tell me how to do this?
Again, sorry for the newbie question which must seem blatantly simple to you – i used Paint for years 😉
Thanks
Rachel
