Instead of using sheet protectors, get a roll of 3 millimeter mylar/duralar. I got the idea from 3mil_mylar, he does some good stuff. Over all, the stuff is cheaper than buying sheet protectors, and allow for much bigger stencils. I got mine from a seller on amazon here. It also works great with a heat based stencil cutter. As for adhering the stencil to the shirt, just use spray adhesive on the back of the stencil, wait for it to get dry and tacky, and then put the stencil on the shirt and cover your edges. Adhesive spray directly on the shirt will get icky and may not come off.
My only gripe so far is that I usually trace my stencils with a fine tip pen but the ink would smear on this stuff. However, the ink holds if I use a sharpie. I've been told that you can buy duralar that has a matte finish and works better to draw on. I also just ordered a stencil cutting tool which is recommended for Duralar, so hopefully it works well because I have some heavy detail designs I want to cut out but I really don't want to deal with the hours of cutting involved.
Is something like this what you're talking about?
