Collage Monogram
Materials: large Masonite letter (available in craft
stores), white spray primer, acrylic paint in your choice of color for
background, sponge brush, family photos, copy machine, scissors, glue stick,
X-acto knife, clear plastic adhesive sheet (such as Contact Paper) large enough
to cover letter.
1. Prime Masonite letter. Allow to dry.
2. Paint sides and front of letter with acryllic
paint. Allow to dry.
3. Make black and white copies of photos, reducing
size if necessary.
4. Cut out photos and glue in desired positions to
letter. Allow glue to dry thoroughly. Trim photos to edge of letter with X-acto
knife.
5. Carefully apply clear adhesive film to top of letter. This can be
tricky. The easiest way is to cut a piece slightly larger than the Masonite
letter. Pull away the backing sheet on one edge and tape the two corners of the
sheet, sticky side up, to a flat surface. Slowly remove the remainder of the
backing sheet and tape down the remaining corners. Place the letter face down
over the adhesive sheet. Using a scissors, trim away excess close to letter. Turn
the letter face up and burnish the film. Then using the X-acto knife, trim the remainder
of the film even with Masonite.
