• So evenly place the powder over the top
• If you have used too much rub a bit off with your fingers
• Your fingers may need a cloth to wipe them with, for they will get a bit messy

Step 6

• Place your letter template over the top of your coloured watermarked image.Trace around the edges

Step 7

• Take off your template
• Cut around the edges

NOTE: WHEN CUTTING CUT ON THE

INSIDE OF THE LINE SO YOU WON’T SEE ANY OUTLINE

Step 8

• You may want to ink around the edges with a dark ink pad

Or another option

• Place double sided tape on the back of the letter
• Take off the backing
• Adhere onto some contrasting coloured cardstock as a background

Then cut out, leaving 3mm edge all the way around
