Another piece of art for the calendar!! We did some packing tape transfers for this piece which was really fun and new for this group of students. I created the ART graphic, printed it with my laser printer, applied the image side to the sticky side of a piece of packing tape and burnished it really well. Just before class I put them to soak so they would be ready as soon as class began. We simply removed them from the water, laid them packing tape down and started gently rubbing the paper with our fingers and the paper just started peeling off!! These are a really cool way to apply a printed image to a layout, journal page or any other surface.
NOTE: In response to a few emails about this technique I found a great tutorial online for this technique. You can check it out at Little Junk Shop!!
The students applied theirs to labels (ornamental - TH) cut from decorative cardstock and then trimmed the transfer to the edges of the die cut. We layered them onto shiny silver foil cardstock which we had embossed and added our little glittery hearts!!
This one is going to be the first page of my calendar!! Love art!!
