I'd bet that it would be even nicer on silk or even poly satin. I wonder how long these inks would last on the fabric? Not that I had any plans to wash them, but it would be interesting to know. Also, I wonder what would happen if you pressed them on an acrylic painted canvas or cloth? Hmmmm, must try that too!!<br /><br />Miek - I suggest that you click on the link for the company and ask their marketing department if they have any European distributors. It might be called something else in your country.<br /><br />Judy - I think the best results are with National Geographics that are at least 10 years old. I read that somewhere, but really haven't tested the theory. I'm not really sure what I'll do with these, but you guys will be the first to know when I start using them. Right now they're too smelly, so it might be later in the year. I really doused them!! Also, these mags were in perfect condition, so no problems there.<br /><br />Linicat - keep tuned next weekend, because I'll probably be trying it. I probably won't use up an entire magazine this time, but perhaps a selection of a few choice pages.Anne Marie - Torontohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15841030304464450073noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7354055207141253864.post-52119013919024206972010-10-18T19:26:44.667-04:002010-10-18T19:26:44.667-04:00Great results!

I wonder if when still wet, the patterns would transfer onto fabric if you laid it on top of the pages?<br />Got some citrasolve, bought it online and have been meaning to try this, but if you try it first, let us know if it works please!liniecathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15643986273499722414noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7354055207141253864.post-85333013307218282582010-10-18T09:22:37.121-04:002010-10-18T09:22:37.121-04:00I have tried some of this in a class given by Rayn...I have tried some of this in a class given by Rayna Gillman. I was not that impressed with my results. Everything depends on the condition of your pages and what kinds of inks. Yours looks good. Just wondering what you do with it. Let us know.Judy Fergusonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04180946416704333537noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7354055207141253864.post-83914917904002731522010-10-18T06:26:40.824-04:002010-10-18T06:26:40.824-04:00Yes, I have used it to transfer to cloth.

By the way, I was wondering what would happen if you tried to transfer one of your gorgeous results to cotton at this point.Penny Berenshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15806619078160825540noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7354055207141253864.post-66889886996547054772010-10-18T02:29:02.467-04:002010-10-18T02:29:02.467-04:00This looks great.

Of course, I guess you could probably do it in the garage, but a cross breeze would be even better.Anne Marie - Torontohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15841030304464450073noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7354055207141253864.post-53675999773351514732010-10-17T22:16:55.038-04:002010-10-17T22:16:55.038-04:00ooh - I have the National G. in my stash already, ...ooh - I have the National G. in my stash already, planning to try this only got bogged down wondering where to get the Citra Solve. Never thought of the health food store!

Hmmmm......but that's for another day! But then again, I wonder what would happen if it met my mx dyes???Anne Marie - Torontohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15841030304464450073noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7354055207141253864.post-37387456665154582862010-10-17T19:25:57.094-04:002010-10-17T19:25:57.094-04:00Fabulous results, but i'm thinking already of ...Fabulous results, but i'm thinking already of doing it on fabric. i know it bleaches my clothes, esp when cleaning the bathroom.
