I was also wondering if you can use one screen to print 3 runs with (3 different colors)? If so, does that mean I will need to let the screen dry after every run, or is there an easier way to dry the screen? Can I use a blow dryer or will that ruin the screen?
Yes- you can use the screen if it is a permanent stencil. But you have to wash and dry the screen in between. But you can use a hair dryer to make it dry faster.
Somewhere in this blog you mentioned National Geographic Adventure paper for stencils. I was intrigued so I ordered some from Amazon — that stuff is great! I see many stencil possibilities with this material. Thanks for bringing it to my attention!

Thanks for the YouTube video. The one on Martha Stewart was hard to follow b/c of buffering. I love your image and appreciate the directions!
Thanks for the great video. How do you heat set to dry?

Thanks again! =)
I air dry. You can use a hair dryer to make it go faster.
