Hmmm. I've learned that a little means a lot.
I gave it a go at image transfers yesterday. Used a foam brush. Fine. I now know that it's probably best to put a very thin layer of medium on. The green version (go figure) was as if just the excess had transferred . The brown version of my grandmom and her older sister was from what was left on the transparency--and little medium. I also learned to even burnish it evenly. You can even see my white burnisher from when I took a graphic design class a while back. Oh, the joys of Letraset and transfer sheet fonts. And...reverse the image! And yeah, that's me looking through the transparency before the goo.

interesting. i am so not up to this yet. i'd love to see more step by step photos.
Elle - you inspire me to try Image transfer.......its on my list of things to try this year and I have been saving articles, emails, etc.
I remember reading Lesley Ryley saying to practise - so you at least got an image to show up so I think its GREAT! for the first time.
Elle, did you figure out how to flip fonts? I could do images but not script.
