Can you print an outline and then hand-color it in (as you color regular shrinky-dinks)? Or does hand coloring not work on these? Thank you!

You most certainly can color on the ink jet plastic before and after it is run through the printer. If you want to color on it before its printed you will need to use a water based marker. Don't do a lot of scrubbing when coloring as it may remove the coating. If you want to finish or color places after it is printed on, (like adding a name) can use a permanent marker on the printed areas, and a water based marker on places that do not have any ink jet ink applied.

You can only use the printer with it. You cannot color it in after it is printed. You would need to use a program, like Photo Shop, to color it in on the computer before you printed it. My daughter has tried coloring it in with a colored pencil and it would not work.

I have only used pictures off the computor for the shrinky Dinks, but I think they make a special one for hand color, it will tell you on the cover.

I print them on 60# card stock, and I use it for the Hallmark program to make cards. I did try laser photo paper but found the finish was not glossy as I expected. Hope this helps...

Just to test the machine, I created a couple of simple geometric shapes using the Silhouette software and it worked just fine. I will be getting into decals for my locomotive which is from the Chicago & Northwestern Railroad. 3 color logo: black, white and red. From what I have read, you can print your own decals on one type of low gloss vinyl and then cut it out. That's one of the reasons I bought this particular machine.

Hi, these markers bleed through paper, some colour at the first time, others if you colour the same area more times to define outlines better. You need heavy paper to avoid this risk or double sheet of paper in order not to look at the back of coloured sheet. Hope to have been useful!

ummmm if you have a vivid imagination LOL NO you can not, this "toner" is for a black & white laser printer i.e. it prints black/gray tones on white paper .. however I have done some photo work with it and hand painted with water colours and or used translucent coloured markers to make " custom coloured prints" I hope this helps ? All the very best~john

Not at all. :) I draw with pastel pencils, then scan the drawings in to my laptop and soften them using paint shop pro. I have the very basic Canon printer and the drawings come out looking like they've been professionally printed. :) When the ink starts to run out I will see faded lines in the prints, like with all inks. Never a problem with one color running out before the others...very pleased.

Strictly for sketching outlines. There's not enough ink in these gel pens for coloring. I use mine for outlined only.

Hi, thanks for your patience as we conducted tests on putting our paper through a printer. If cut into small pieces (6" x 4") like a photo size, the paper will feed through a printer, and the ink will apply with no issue. Of course it is dependent on the brand of printer, brand of ink used and the colors selected. We would always recommend using the paper with Chalk This Way markers for the brightest, boldest result and cutting with a pair of sharp scissors ideally to ensure a neat, clean edged cut. We trust this is of assistance. Regards, Paul Davidson Chalk This Way

you can draw on them with markers.I don't think pens or pencils will work. I never tried those.

I like Noodler's, even though it doesn't "cure" as fast as the Fast Dry Private Reserve. I can reactivate Noodler's with a light wash and watercolor brush for a time after laying down line work. Even though it may seem dry to the touch, Noodler's can still smudge for a while. This is great if, like me, you wish to use it for quick ink washes. Not so great if you want to lay in clean color during the same sketching session, or if you want to use it for lettering and have a tendency to work with the side of your palm touching the paper. (I would imagine this would be particularly so with southpaws who must work from left to right over their freshly inked lines.) I use Noodler's in a couple of vintage fountain pens and have no problems whatsoever; it is the only ink I'm currently using in my Lamy medium nib pens.

I have not run across this problem yet, but I believe if you print in black you should still be able to print without replacing the color that has run out. Hope this helps.

Yes, they will work beautifully. Just be sure you change the settings on your printer. When you hit print, go to properties , then open the features tap. Now change the paper type to sticker paper or whatever option that is similar. Next change to print quality to normal (not draft, not best. best will give you too much ink and it may smear. I hope this help you.

I'm guessing you're talking about the oil pastels. They are similar to crayons but you can blend, smudge and layer the colors more easily for effect. Start out treating them kinda like crayons and use blending stumps or your finger to smudge them. You can google oil pastels for more info.

Based on the texture of these cards I would strongly caution against doing this. Plus, because these are meant to be worked on in various mediums, such as water colors and pencils, the ink from your printer will likely feather out into the fibers of the notecards and not give you crisp lines, which is likely what you're looking for. Hope this helps.

no you cant not color them , and hair is so thin that get very tangle with your hair , I don't recommend this hair at all it was a waste of money

Yes you can, a needed eraser is recommended but most of all you need good artist paper #140 is good. Low grade paper will not work as well. If need be you can lift the color off by using a piece of scotch tape( wrapped around your finger sticky side out) . Try it

Yes, you can certainly draw on these. They are pretty much like regular paper, so pens or sharpies will work just fine.
