Damn, I was hoping there was an easier way. LOL

Thanks

Go ahead and say it. LOL

I was hoping there was a pattern just for better results, not for time/lazyness.

See this month's XRC. They have a tutorial on how to do them with contact paper. Cut them on the shelfpaper and transfer it into the body with transfer tape. Pretty simple method and far easier to cut on a table, versus inside the body.

i bet blue painters tape and wax paper would work as well

If you don't have contact paper handy, yeah, blue tape would do. You just are limited on width of the design.

It's called " I Got It and You Don't."

just kidding.


Wonderliner fine liner. I found it at Ace Hardware near the shelf paper. It comes in 12" wide by 60" long roll for $4.99.

It's about 1/2 as thick as puffy mat, so getting sharp edges should be a breeze with this stuff.

I shot it both ways, and the results are very similar...subtle differences. Not gonna replace puffy matting, especially for the Ghost CF look...but this stuff will have it's uses.
