• Method of coloring the background, we recommend chalk pastels since they blend so beautifully
• Spray fixative - only if you are using chalk pastels, it prevents the pastels from smearing.
• Method of gluing the scissor cut to the background. We recommend spray adhesive since it is repositionable. You may use any other method as well, such as glue stick or double sided tape. Just remember, these are permanent the first time you glue your papercut down.
