1. I opened my chosen image on Adobe Photoshop, I then cropped
 out all of the background. This will make it easier to later filter
 and select certain areas of the image.

2. I turned the contrast and brightness of my image very low to
make the image was more detailed and joined together when
turning on the stamp filter. I then save this image
3. I reopened the image in Corel Draw. I used the tracing tool
to outline all of the image in orange so I could see what would
 be cut out.
4. I then deleted the filling to the images so I would just be left
with the orange lines. Next, I sized the image so it would be
cut out the size I wanted.

5. Finally, I opened the image on the laser cutter printer and
positioned it so I would not waste materials.
Above is my final piece. To help support the image I stapled it to an old canvas frame. I then wrapped thread round the whole piece to represent the elastic bands which round the face. I am very pleased with outcome and I have found that I enjoy working in a physical method.
