Altered Canvas - Contact Paper Transfer Technique

I used a contact paper transfer technique to create this mixed media canvas for this month's Altered Electrics' challenge. 

To create my canvas I collaged different designer papers, napkins, and dictionary papers on my canvas along with postage stamps.  I also added some stamped sentiments and spots acrylic paint.   

A collection of magazine images and photographs and contact paper  were used to create the top layer. I photocopied my images then added then to my contact paper.  Once I had my images attached to my contact paper I soaked  the backs of of the images to remove the backing of the images leaving just the outline and added the images to my canvas. 

I used the following sites for inspiration and directions how to do the transfer technique.
