Tonight I tested to see if colored pencils or permanent markers (the Bic sharpie-equivalent) would work better for transfering a colored image. Colored pencils won by a landslide – some of the “permanent” markers started to dissolve into the water, and it all rubbed off.

Which may also explain my “spotty” results with the technique! My preference is just to cover the tape with matte medium and leave it alone. But experimentation is always worthwhile! Thanks Jen!
