Comment by Katerina Nikoltsou (MomKat) on December 1, 2010 at 10:09pm: or...put the tape across an image of the Sunday newspaper, and barely let it stick, lift quickly...no laser printer needed, no water. What remains of the newsprint is very little but a nice texture, and the printer's ink is easy to stick. My transfers were immediate...no water, no waiting..

Comment by Julian Grant on December 1, 2010 at 9:31pm: Print an image using a laser printer. Stick packing tape down on it. Burnish with spoon. Wash off paper and the image is there in all it's glory. It can be wonderfully expressive. JG
