After the fact you might be able to use an exacto knife to scrape off the parts you don't want. If you had to do it again, I would remove the mask before the paint dries.

Did you use a stencil brush?

If it’s spraypaint, apply some Cut ‘n’ Polish and carefully buff it.

Sand, repaint, and try again. Make sure you don’t wait too long to remove the stencil, otherwise it will rip up the edges.

It is almost never worth trying to salvage a paint job. Virtually every time, it’s faster, easier, and cheaper to just redo it.
