Packing Tape or Clear Permanent Contact Paper Transfer

Packing tape or clear permanent contact paper transfer

1. Lay trimmed contact paper (backing paper removed) or packing tape(overlap strips of tape to achieve desired width) over toner based or uncoated magazine image.
2. To achieve a good transfer, burnish the image thoroughly with a bone folder or the back of a large spoon.
3. Turn your work over, lightly sand the paper backing, moisten with water and gently rub the paper off with your fingers or a soft cloth. Be patient, keep the paper moist and continue to rub until the paper is gone. The ink will stick to your tape or contact paper, which may then be adhered to your art. DO NOT, DO NOT put paper rubbings down your sink drain.
