Watercolor Transfer
For this project, the primary tool used to transfer our image was mod podge. We started out by picking the image and adjusting the size in Adobe Photoshop. We then printed the picture(s) which we kept until later. After this, we used water color paper to paint a design onto the water color paper. Let this paper dry fully so you don't have complications!

After letting the paper dry, you will now take the picture you printed and smear a thick layer of mod podge directly onto the image. Make sure to do this quickly so the mod podge doesn't dry put! For the next step, you will grab your image and flip it onto the the water color paper. (The front of the image and mod podge will be directly touching the water color paper. Next, carefully use a squeegee to get the bubble and excess mod podge out from the middle. Simply press and swipe through the top of your image being careful not to rip it. Again, let the mod podge dry overnight.

Now, after its dried, you will take your image/watercolor and a cup of water. Dip your fingers into the water and start rubbing on the white paper where your image is. The paper should be coming off, leaving the ink on the water color paper.
If I could re-do this project, I would definitely tr to take more of the white paper off even though I did the process about three times. I would also try changing the design of the water color background.
