TAPE TRANSFERS

where you transfer images to tape!

TAPE TRANSFER

1. Cut out an image you like from a magazine.
2. Place your image FACE UP on the table
3. Place packing tape over it. Make sure the pieces of tape overlap so there are no gaps. Make sure there are no air bubbles and that the tape is pressed onto the the image well.
4. Flip your taped image over (sticky side is now up and you see the back of your image).
5. Sprinkle water onto the magazine paper .Let it soak for a few seconds.
6. Keep wetting the back of the paper and your hands or it will tear.
7. Slowly rub ALL the paper OFF. Do not peel the paper off all at once.
8. Once you have rubbed all the paper of the back, you now have a see-through image you place over anything (paper, glass, wood, fabric…)
