Additionally, you will probably need to make the image with the saying smaller to fit on the stone. But you can do all of this with simple programs, including “Paint”. Simply select the “Select” function in the bar at the top and then select the image. You can now reduce or enlarge it and then flip it horizontally under “Rotate” in the case menu.
Then print out the lettering and cut it out. Apply clear varnish to the surface of the stone where the saying will be and allow it to dry. Pour a little of the alcohol-containing liquid into a lid or other container and place the cut-out saying in it for 3 to 5 seconds. Then place the paper on the stone with the writing facing down and gently press it down. Wait 30 seconds and remove the paper. The lettering should now be on the stone. Fix the lettering with clear acrylic varnish.
