Step 2

Use your brush to apply a layer of varnish on the image.

Let it dry and apply another one (that will make the pieces harder and easier to play with).

Let it dry well.

 

Step 3

Cut out the extra cardboard.

 

Step 4

Use your pencil to draw different forms on the back of the cardboard.

 

Step 5

Cut out the pieces.

These are our puzzle pieces…

… and this is the completed puzzle.

And, that’s it.  You just finished your picture puzzle.  How did it turn out?  Let me know in the comments below.  And, don’t forget to add the picture to the comments…. I’d love to see how it turned out.
