- Cut out the rainbow frame. Carefully follow the outlines of the rainbow suncatcher template with scissors.
- Position the rainbow outline. Place the rainbow template onto the sticky side of the contact paper or self-seal laminating sheet. If using white cardstock shapes, be sure the printed side faces down.
- Attach the tissue paper. Fill the rainbow frame with tissue paper pieces, trimming as needed to fit smaller details like the arcs. Layer the pieces until the entire frame is covered for a vibrant stained-glass effect.
- Secure the design. After the tissue paper is in place, cover it with a second adhesive sheet to seal everything. Then carefully trim around the edges of the suncatcher frame with scissors.
- Display your window decorations. These contact paper suncatchers bring a cheerful splash of color to any window, brightening the room—especially on gray early-spring days. Hang them using double-sided tape or sticky tack.
