These are techniques I've wanted to try, but I never trusted myself. Courtney made it look so easy that she boosted my confidence to jump right in without fear. I originally wanted to learn how to do this for journaling, but now I am picturing transferred images everywhere - my make-up mirror, cigar box project that I've been thinking about for way too long, etc. I am excited to check out more classes taught by Courtney Certuti.

There is so much potential with image transfers that I have heard of a couple of these before, but never tried them. I now am inspired to actually do some of these techniques. Thank you Courtney,
