    image transfer with laminating pouches

    I have used clear parcel tape for image transfer but the limitation is the width. so I got to wondering if a sheet of laminating pouch would work.

    Well it does.

    Here's how. Iron a single layer of a laminating pouch on top of the image you want to transfer, between 2 pieces of parchment paper. I used setting 3 on my iron.

    Then cut out the image if you need to. Then place in a bowl of water. Hot works faster than cold. Then rub the back till you see your top image showing. You will have a transparent image which can then be stuck on to whatever surface you want.

    I've found that unlike parcel tape you don't get a residual stickiness so I use diamond glaze to adhere the image.
