I am totally enjoying burying my angst with these back to school projects. Denial in the form of creativity. I like it. So, my next “denial” project is these personalized erasers – how cute are these? And would you believe I used Silhouette’s Temporary Tattoo Paper to do them?
The What

The How
Step 1: Create your text/names and then mirror them (I typed mine, added a frame and then mirrored right)
Step 2: I didn’t do the Print and Cut, but printed the text onto the glossy side of the tattoo paper (there are little pink marks on the non-printable side)
Step 3: Wait about 10-15 minutes for the ink to dry, then apply the adhesive sheet onto the top of the tattoo paper (ink side up), using your scraper to smooth it out
Step 4: Cut very closely around the text, then peel away the clear adhesive layer
Step 5: Use the wet cloth/towel to apply the tattoo to the eraser, patting it until the paper can easily slide off

Wow! That’s really cool! About how long do the images last?
Thanks, Jenna! I’ve had mine since August – we’ve used the “Drake” one and so far, the tattoos have held up nicely.
Awesome! I’m going to have to make some myself, then 🙂
Thank you for sharing this idea!!
Yay, Jenna! Let me know how they turn out 🙂
Love these! They make me want to use a pencil more often so that I can whip out my custom eraser. 🙂
Ha ha – thanks, Ras!
