I've been doing temporary tattoos and I have been free handing simpler tattoos, as my expeirence has progressed my tattoos have been becoming more complex to where I need to use a stencil. I really don't want to go out and buy tattoo paper, does anyone now of any methods where I transfer a tattoo stencil onto the skin with supplies I can buy at the store or at like Hobby Lobby? Thanks!

I've been using normal tracing paper. Not as good as transfer paper but will do the job if you need it to.

the person that does my tattoos uses carbon copy paper (it's 3 sheets: black-white-yellow)

put the design over top with the yellow side up and trace over the stencil using a pencil.

to transfer it on the skin, use a gel deodorant and apply it to the skin then stick the carbon copy onto the deodorant.

if the person doesn't like it, it can be wiped off with rubbing alcohol and re-applied without having to retrace.
