How To Transfer an Image using a Blender Pen



Using a Blender Pen is the easiest way to transfer an image.  Some of the pens are toxic, so you’ll need to use them outdoors or in a ventilated area.


Supplies:
Blender Pen
Photocopy of image you wish to transfer
Paper, fabric, or wood to transfer image onto.
Burnishing tool such as a bone folder, plastic spoon, or even the TV remote. 
Optional:  Masking Tape

Steps: 
1) Pick the image you want to transfer.    
2) Lay your image face down on the surface you want to transfer the image onto.  I tape mine in place, just to ensure success.

3) With a blender pen, swipe across the backside of the photocopy repeatedly, overlapping your strokes.
4) Burnish this area. 
5) If you have a large image to transfer, do it in sections (swipe then burnish). 
6) Lift a corner up and see if you’re happy with the transfer.   If not, reapply the blender pen and burnish again until you’re happy with the results.
