Packing Tape Transfers

	Clear Packing Tape – as wide as you can get	Scrap Paper (to cover work space)
	Laser printed images	Paper Trimmer or Scissors
	Pre-made Coloured Backing card – eg: Alcohol ink coloured	Water

	Print black and white / coloured image using a laser printer, make the image slightly larger than the width of the packing tape being used. Glossy magazine images can be substituted if necessary.
	Cut packing tape to length of image and carefully lay tape over image (right side up), smooth tape with fingers to remove any air bubbles or wrinkles.
	Immerse taped image in water or under a running tap, gently begin to rub the paper with fingers, this will remove the paper from the tape leaving a transparent image. Continue to work paper until it is all gone. Place tape sticky-side-up to dry. When dry check for paper remnants, if any paper remains repeat step 3 and leave to dry again.
	When dry and free of paper mount image onto pre-prepared background card/paper and trim to size.
