Hi. I just absolutely love you and your work. I do want to work in mixed medium. I just don’t have many materials yet. I hope I can push myself to let go and have some fun. Thanks
Hi Susan... yes it takes time to get supplies together.. I still have some Inspiration Kits available in the Gallerie and it’s a great way to start.. 😘
Hi Kat, I have always loved doing transfers in my art, so this tute is amazing! I enjoy your comparisons of products used as well. Thank you so much. Was worth the wait!! Lynn p.
I absolutely love watching your videos. I really enjoy transfers but kind of forgot about them. The first transfer I did was at a friend’s house when I was in 4th grade. We transferred flowers onto a dome plaque and put crackle on it. That was many years ago but it imbedded my inborn love of creating art. I wish I could thank her mother for taking the time to plant a seed inside me.
Brenda Parker Hi Brenda! Thank you for watching! We so appreciate it. What a great experience to have as a child, such creative support... it makes such a difference, doesn’t it! Thank you for letting me know and taking the time to comment. It means so much! 😘
Thank you for this video. I’m going to try these methods. I have not been successful with image transfer. I thought because I do not have a toner printer.
Hi my friend, Today is 4-5-2020 covid days. I watched you in this lovely video while I enjoyed my first restaurant meal in many weeks but of course it was curbside pick up. It was “yummy.” 😊 So were your papers and transfers. I learned a lot. Thank you. My orchid says hello to your IG orchid. Lol 🌿🌸🍃
Janice Robinson LOL my orchid says Ciao Bella! right back! So glad you enjoyed the video my friend! Working on a new one, of course! Enjoy that curbside yummy meal.. we live in the twigs.. so I must make all our food! Thank you for letting me know that you enjoyed it! Sending big hugs your way! XXX 🌸💓🌿💚
Howdy Cat, I'm re watching this tute once more. Have to say, because of your suggestion, I did try the bumpy-ish cloth to take off paper layer and LOVED that easy technique! Thank you again for this idea! LOVE this tute!! Lynn P.
Lynn Parise Hi Lynn! All my white kitchen cloths end up in the Studio! They work so well! Thank you for letting me know that you tried it! 😘 so nice to hear from you!
oh what an awesome video! I enjoyed it so much and I literally have butterflies from that beautiful paper. I cannot wait to try that, your paper was just beautiful. Have a great time on your vacation and can't wait to see more when you get back!
I tried it with Golden matte medium on unbleached cotton and watercolor paper and the results are fantastic. Thank you so much for sharing this technique.
This is a cool technique Cat!!! I have seen people do this before but not quite as beautiful as you have done here. You make it look so easy!!! I have a laser printer, so can not do this with you. I will check the library and see what kind of printer they have. Have a wonderful vacation!!!
Love your videos Cat! I was excited to see it was on image transfers and I was really surprised to hear you say to use inkjet and not laser prints. Other videos I've seen showing the process have said they have to be laser prints. I can't wait to go and experiment. Have a great vacation ❤
Hi Elvy! Yes! I am just finishing my 3 part series on a fabric book and as soon as we finish it, I will be doing a fabric transfer video. So stay tuned, click the notifications bell!
Hmmmm love your part 1 but can't find part 2 looking to transfer on to muslin for a Journal cover. Is it the same process for fabric? Just discovered your beautiful channel recently!!! Very inspiring!!!!!! Thx
I been wanting to play around with transfers. I recently bought a book with old pictures from vogue magazines from over the years and the pictures are on the bad quality side but the contrast is strong so I am thinking as transfers they will be amazing. I have fluid matte medium not gel (not sure if that would work or not) I have a problem of being on the heavy hand side so clear gesso might be a big mess for me. I might just have to get a coupon and get the gel medium. And this might be an excuse to start to buy some golden paints ... they are a little out of reach for me since I am still learning but those paints just look yummy. (I mean even the zinc white!)
Well Golden is a professional brand, and it IS pricey, but they work so well, and a high contrast is perfect for a transfer, and yes just a bit of clear gesso goes a looong way, Lady in the Tree! thanks for watching and commenting!!
Julie Houck Hi Julie, no you shouldn’t need to pretreat the paper .. any paper when making a transfer because you will be applying whatever you use to transfer the image on both the copy and the paper. 😘
i would love to know what type of fabric i should buy? i tried to google a bumpy-ish fabric but that did not really work:((( hope to hear from you and THANKS i love this tutorial and am subscribed to your channel:))) best wishes/ alice
Alice Saga Hi Alice! Thank you so much! Glad you liked the transfer video.. so! I assume you are referring to fabric that I used in a video.. which video is it and then I can let you know which fabric I used. 😘
Thanks for sharing!! Your base paper is a laser photocopy or just an inkjet one? I haven't have good results with inkjet prints, I need to try more I guess.
Annie Gabriel Hi Annie, transfers are used for many different purposes in mixed media. If you transfer an image, you can paint, gild, collage and sand the image.. it takes more abuse than a simple collage piece. It is far more interesting visually, to mix different media and techniques.
Thanks for clearing that up, it’s always been a mystery to me. I’ve never done transfers, for a few reasons - I don’t have a printer, I can draw and paint faces and other figurative elements really well, and I have a large collection of collage pieces of all kinds. I often make my own collage pieces, as well, so I have a ton of those. So today, I am playing around in my studio with transfers, on and off the gelli plate. Let the fun begin!
Hello, New Subbie here, I would love if you would ever do a video showing how to print images from your printer, onto cloth! How to put cloth & is it wax paper?, into your printer...for it to flow smoothly through your printer. And of course I understand if you don't plan on doing a tutorial like that! :) Thank you in advance! Sue
You are awesome. I love this video.
thank you so much for sharing this x
Absolutely! 😘
I'm enjoying dipping into your videos. I love your warm, enthusiastic spirit, your sharing with all of us.

Hi Cat! Love this video. Can u use the same technique on fabric. Such as muslin
TFS-Rebecca
Thank you for this video. I’m going to try these methods. I have not been successful with image transfer. I thought because I do not have a toner printer.
Cat uses an ink jet printer by HP and gets good results.

Laurie Crater Laurie, you are so kind! Thank you! You can probably get cheap prints made at Walmart too!
Loved this video.. Thank you so much!
Thank you! We will be doing one for fabrics soon! 😘♥️
ink jet??? i understood inkjet runs because it's water soluable and the way to go was laser prints. you got some good results! thanks for sharing!
Love your videos Cat! I was excited to see it was on image transfers and I was really surprised to hear you say to use inkjet and not laser prints. Other videos I've seen showing the process have said they have to be laser prints. I can't wait to go and experiment. Have a great vacation ❤

chloe grl Hi Chloe.. sorry about that.. guess he forgot to label it.. here is the link! 😘 ua-cam.com/video/td3l9C0amY8/v-deo.html
Do you also show us in any video how to transfer onto linen fabric?
It would be the same technique, though you might need to tape the linen fabric to keep it from wiggling..

Do you gesso or put any medium on Khadi paper before the image transfer with matte medium?
Julie Houck Hi Julie, no you shouldn’t need to pretreat the paper .. any paper when making a transfer because you will be applying whatever you use to transfer the image on both the copy and the paper. 😘
Caterina Giglio Thank you!😘😘🙏🏼

@@CaterinaGiglio yes it is the image transfer video:))))
and yes about the fabric!!!:)
Alice Saga I will view it again, I thought I only used paper in that video...will get back to you 😉
@@CaterinaGiglio thank you:)))) it looks so easy to not use ones fingers and instead use the fabric/ cloth you are using:)
You are my favorite ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Thanks for sharing!! Your base paper is a laser photocopy or just an inkjet one? I haven't have good results with inkjet prints, I need to try more I guess.
Lizzy, they are all ink jet copies.. Try having them professionally copied..
Thank you, I will try inkjet because that's what I have at home
are you using an inkjet printer or laser?
Yes, HP inkjet.. thanks for watching!
I am a little puzzled - why not just collage the papers straight into the journal? Am I missing the point?
Annie Gabriel Hi Annie, transfers are used for many different purposes in mixed media. If you transfer an image, you can paint, gild, collage and sand the image.. it takes more abuse than a simple collage piece. It is far more interesting visually, to mix different media and techniques.

Annie Gabriel Have fun playing with transfers and push them as far as you can.. enjoy! 😘
What kind of paper are the images printed on?
Sheena Vee Sheena, I just used plain printer paper, very simple thanks for watching! 😘
Hello, New Subbie here, I would love if you would ever do a video showing how to print images from your printer, onto cloth!
