Day 17: More Image Transfers on Packing Tape

I liked the fridge cling-ons that I made last night so much, I decided to do it again today.  This time I used some images from an old Life magazine.  These were much easier to rub off than yesterday’s images.  I kind of want to decorate every smooth surface in my home with these little images.  Yesterday’s project and instructions can be found here.

Day 16: Image Transfers on Packing Tape

Today, I made some cling-on images for any smooth surface.  I took an image I liked from an old Time magazine and covered it in clear packing tape.  Then I cut the image out, placed it in a bowl of warm water andlet it soak for a while.  I rubbed the paper off the back with my fingers, and I was left with a translucent image that will stick to any smooth surface!

Tips:  The magazine image must be glossy.  Don’t rub the paper off with your fingernails.  Images look really neat when stuck onto a transparent surface.
