Personalize your Space with Sick Ons!

Stick On Monograms by Midnight Oil Scrapbook Design (MOSD) are great for personalizing your walls. These are like rub-ons but better because you can alter them to make them match whatever project you are working on. You can use alcohol ink, solvent ink or paint to make them whatever color and design you want. In this example, I created the phrase "Scrap Zone" with the Monograms. I used Eggplant, Lettuce and Butterscotch Alcohol Ink by Tim Holtz. Then I outlined the outer circle with Stickles. In hindsight, I would recommend applying the Stickles after you have adhered your project because it interferred with the transfer sheet. After you are done altering the Stick Ons, let them dry then use the Transfer tape that is on the back of each letter. Essentially, it works like a rub-on....you place the transfer tape over your Stick On, rub it then peel it off with your Stick On attached. Next you place the transfer tape and Stick On onto your project, rub it and peel off the transfer tape - leaving behind the Stick On. Easy!

Before - un-altered Stick On Monogram



After - Altered with Alcohol Ink
