What an interesting New Technique challenge today - to print a photo in black and white on acetate and then to color it with Copics on the back side.
My printer had no setting for acetate so the black ink doesn't seem to be drying very well (I set it to glossy photo paper) - I tried blowing it some with the hot gun - but not sure if it's going to dry.
I tried coloring 2 photos before the two I have here (one on another post - Poppies) and found that by just tapping the copic against the acetate it gave a better look - not streaky and it came out looking like watercoloring against the watercolor paper I think.
I just attached the acetate to the card with brads rather then fussing with tape that would probably show through or smudge off the ink!
