Very interesting, it doesn't say whether it's a regular photograph from a photo shop.
Or if it's one printed from your computer, you could reverse the photo so that when you remove the paper it would come out right  rather than reversed.
Something to think about.

That is really cool. I also would like to know what kind of photo paper was used. Will have to do some research on this I think.  8)

I've seen someone else do the same thing on a video. It is pretty neat.

Did anyone else notice when she held up the bottles of modge podge and gel that the images were not right? The words on the bottles are backwards. Not sure if she meant to do that or but I had to watch it again to see if there was anything else out of place.

Jimbo, my understanding is that Modge Podge is a white glue (like Elmer's) that dries clear. It's a little thinner than Elmer's so you can brush it on the front of a picture to add a protective coating. It's used a lot in decoupage.

The first one says your picture on regular printer paper.

I was in town today and picked up some white acrylic caulk. I've printed out a reversed image of a sign my wife wants made that shows her kennel name and breed of dogs.
I'll let you know how it comes out, it'll probably be a couple of days as I needed to paint some masonite white first and it's going to take a second coat before I can do the transfer. So probably have results day after tomorrow.
I liked the acrylic caulk method as it seemed the simplest and didn't require a bunch of chemicals to make it work.
I like the KISS methods.   ;D
