Materials: Mat with 1/8" grid Repositionable adhesive Craft knife Ruler with cork backing Mosaic Moments? grid paper 7-10 photographs with similar lighting - Begin trimming the photos by positioning on the grid mat, then use the ruler and craft knife to cut each photo (figure A) into 1" squares. Tip: For easier positioning and cutting, apply a few lines of repositionable adhesive on the back of each photo before cutting.
- Next, transfer each photograph square onto the grid paper (figure B). Arrange and adhere as desired.
