Most scrapbooking images come in large high quality resolution. Make sure your images will be large enough for your project before you purchase the kit. Next you’ll need to print and cutout the images. Quality is key so you may need to have the images printed somewhere like Walmart or OfficeMax.

Cut a piece of contact paper to fit your image and gently peel away the backing of the contact paper so the sticky side is face up. Don’t completely peel off your backing so you can easily stick it back on.

Carefully put your cut out images face DOWN on the sticky side of the contact paper being very cautious not to collect air bubbles. Use a license or credit card to smooth any air bubbles out.

Now cut the images out again leaving about 1.4 inch edge of contact paper around each image. This is how it sticks to the wall so don’t miss this step!

Lastly, remove the backing paper and stick your image to the wall! Scrapbooking images can really set off a room. Plus the contact paper should come off the wall without peeling paint off!
