Hello!

I would very much like to play with transparent print-outs. I found a copy shop where they print on transparent foil. Now I have a question. I found some nice images that I would use for myself as earrings and pendants. I found some black birds on black trees with a white background. The thing is that I think that background with turn up white and not transparent. Same with some other images. I would maybe like to have some orange and black pattens with no background color at all so I could play with resin colors a little. Are there any collage sheets out there that are already done that way? Or how how I do it if I just want something that looks like it is painted on glass?

Thanks!!

Kathy

Hi Kathy,

It has been my experience printing on transparencies that the white of the paper doesn’t show up on the transparency. You can see what I’m talking about in these tutorials:

Have you tried printing yet?
