Has anyone tried to transfer drawings using these? As in coloring/drawing on them with markers, crayons, etc. then applying them to clothing?

I haven't but make sure you draw your image backwards. I have used Stamps tho and it works.

I have not personally attempted image tranfer onto canvas, but I do use this for all my wood transfers. I dont see why this same stuff wouldnt work. Hope I was semi helpful.

I don't know whether they would work. I suspect they would, but these are meant for fine art. You can probably find much cheaper pastel colored chalks in a store that sells crayons and other art materials for kids. Wal-Mart or Target for example.

I don't see why you couldn't use them to draw as they do not spread or run once they are applied; I use them to mark on fabric so can only theorize on the results on paper.

It will be they have to be on pretty thin paper and it will not be as clear as with a transparency but it is not difficult at all to transfer them. I just loaded them in the printer but always use the manual feeder as they will get stuck if you don't. Yes I have experience with that.

Yes they work the same as shrinky dinks. I used colored sharpies and it worked great

I have not used these to draw. The tip is more rounded, probably not too good for drawing. A tip more pointed like a pencil would work better. Letters and numbers would work okay.

Seems like, with another Make-A-Plate Kit, we used our own water-based markers because theirs dried up before all my kids were done coloring. This time we just used theirs. I do believe that any water-based markers should work. I'd try it, but I hesitate to urge others to.

No, it's not at all. These work more like a felt-tip pen, or a like a child's Crayola-type coloring marker, except it's food coloring instead of ink. You're probably aware the Crayola-type markers don't work well on black construction paper (if you have kids you're well aware! HAha), and these pens work much the same way in that the ink of the marker won't show up very well on dark-colored fondants. I would suggest using black fondant and yellow fondant and making your jersey that way. I can't think of anything, even painting with food coloring, that would work on black fondant. Hope I helped, even though the answer was probably disappointing! And good luck on those cupcakes! :-) No, it's not at all.

I guess it might depend on what kind of fabric the clothes are made of. I have had kids get these markers all over themselves and on bedding. All of it washed out without treatment. These are not permanent markers. The ink is totally washable and erasable on cotton, but maybe not on polyester blends such as a t shirt. My grandkids love these markers and I have white boards for them to color on. They love it, but these markers are messy.

I have used Prismacolor Watercolor pencils and Derwent with paint brushes loaded with water. It works beautifully. I have not done a lot of layering of colors w/water or scrubbing. I'm not sure how they would hold up, although they are thick. It's worth a try, these are inexpensive and can be used for many art projects.

The crayola fabric crayons are not designed to wash out after being ironed onto a shirt. As for actually applying the crayon directly onto the shirt, it would not work that well and the crayons are not designed for that anyway - they are designed to be applied to paper then ironed onto a cloth item. It sounds like you need a product designed specifically for embroidery. There are two products I am aware of for this purpose. the first is a pen with actual disappearing ink - you trace and within a few hours the ink has disappeared (http://www.amazon.com/Collins-vanishing-disappearing-fabric-marker/dp/B001W2M2WO/ref=sr_1_4?s=arts-crafts&ie=UTF8&qid=1377646526&sr=1-4&keywords=embroidery+ink+pen OR http://www.amazon.com/Singer-Fabric-Marking-Pen-Pencil/dp/B00566E680/ref=sr_1_2?s=arts-crafts&ie=UTF8&qid=1377646567&sr=1-2&keywords=embroidery+ink+pen OR http://www.amazon.com/Singer-Point-Disappearing-Marking-Purple/dp/B003BRX6PK/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1377646511&sr=8-1&keywords=embroidery+ink+pen. the other product will wash out after a wash or two (http://www.amazon.com/DMC-U1539-Embroidery-Transfer-Blue/dp/B000W5HTX4/ref=sr_1_5?ie=UTF8&qid=1377646660&sr=8-5&keywords=embroidery+ink+pen). I hope these links help.

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

I'm looking for them too. I went to the crayola website and didn't see them there. This is a fun toy so I hope they have the markers available somewhere. 2 of our markers dried up after 3 uses (the blue and green one). I wonder if neon crayons would work?

Yes, I have. I did however place some inexpensive non woven interfacing (a tablecloth would do) to make sure the colors did not bleed onto my finished item. They worked just fine. I did see no signs of bleeding but better safe than sorry.

Somewhat. If the markers are used directly on thin cloth, it needs a cardboard backer. We used them with the Crayola "air spray" kit and they did not bleed through.

I do not believe so, we haven't tried them though. Everywhere I looked it said that you have to use ONLY the Crayola Dry Erase Markers - I've read reviews that said 'normal' dry erase markers did not fully erase. Don't know it this helps you..
