Mixed Media with Ransom Note-Style Text!!!

OK, so I used a lot of really cool techniques in this video!

I have had this idea in my head for some time now, that I wanted to try to use magazine image transfer to make ransom note-style letter blocks that I could then use in my mixed media collage.

I had no idea if it was going to work! (Anyone who’s tried magazine image transfer knows that it works when it feels like it, lol, which is not very often. 🤣🤣🤣)

I was so pleased that I got it to work, at least enough for this project! I hope you give it a try for yourself!
