I am so happy with the end result, and I think painting will make a great birthday present for O's Guh-guh! I am also looking forward to trying this same technique with handprints, which would make great Christmas gifts for grandparents!
O asked to do more sticky paper paintings, so I cut out another silhouette on Thurday. This time we used both pieces of the contact paper, and we are so happy with the results!
Here are the paintings before I pulled off the contact paper.
Here they are after removing the contact paper.
Elliott really likes this one...good thing since it's going to be his birthday present!
O wants to hang this one in her sister's room :)
I am also really excited about turning these paintings into scrabble tile pendants!

I love that! We will definitely have to try this!
Those are awesome!!

Just gorgeous! I love how you took it one step further! We will have to try it on canvas. Love the colors too! Thanks for linking!
Those are beautiful! Great idea for some meaningful, DIY art and sophisticated looking too!!
Love this! How did you make the silhouette? (I know, silly question, but I need help.)
Thanks!
Oh wow! Those are SO beautiful! What a great twist on the silhouette's I've been so wanting to try.
Also, if you get a chance to answer: Did you follow the technique to the link you posted? Putting the picture on a window and tracing it? I remember you (or somewhere) posting about cutting a picture out and using that as a template?? Thanks, I love it w/ the canvas too.
