Recently, I had the kids paint their silhouettes for their Daddy. I got the idea from this blog. I didn't follow those directions exactly. Instead of tracing the silhouette onto the contact paper before cutting, I just placed the silhouette photo over the contact paper and cut through both pages. It worked fine. I used the contact paper that I had on-hand which was not specifically removable, but I didn't have any trouble peeling it off. I used water color paints on drawing paper. I am so pleased with how they turned out.
Here's my daughter...
Last year, I gave my husband silhouettes of the kids. I think this may be becoming an annual tradition!
These are very cool. Maybe I will do this with the kids...someday...maybe for the grandparents as a collage framed print??
