Gather your materials and supplies including boxboard.
Using either scissors or a Utility knife cut pages to 6 1/2" X 10 1/2".
You will need at least 4, but make as many as you like.
(The images shown have holes punched in the pages.  
Do not do this prior to class).
If using cereal or snack boxes one
side might have a shiny printed
surface.  Sand this both
horizontally and vertically.  Not all
of the image needs to be
removed, but you must at least
sand it enough to break the gloss.
Lightly coat all sides of your
pages with a coat of Gesso or
primer. The pages with images
need not be completely obscured.
