| The final four! |
 |
| The ambigram printed 8-up on a sheet of temporary tattoo paper from http://temporarytattoopaper.net I let it dry for 36 hours. |
 |
| I trimmed the paper and the adhesive sheet in half, and the peeled back the the adhesive sheet to begin to apply it. |
 |
| I gently rubbed the adhesive sheet with my fingers, and used the tip of an X-Acto knife to poke any air bubbles and worked them out. I gave a good final rub with an 30-year-old burnisher used in the past for transfer lettering sheets. I let this dry for 18 hours. |
 |
| Cut apart |
 |
| And trimmed close to the edge of the artwork. It seemed like leaving .187"+ around the artwork is the best idea, since the adhesive material can sometimes tend to curl back on itself when you remove the clear backing. Things you learn upon “doing.” |
 |
| My first attempt failed as it was way too humid in the bathroom after our shower, and the tattoo curled up on itself. My second attempt -- success! |
