Abstract
A method for adhering a label, lettering, ink, a tattoo, sketch, design or color (“indicia”) to a substrate comprising the steps of: providing an indicia-bearing backing paper; moistening the indicia-bearing backing paper to form a moistened indicia-bearing layer; providing an adhesive layer between the moistened indicia-bearing layer and the substrate; placing the moistened indicia-bearing layer on the adhesive layer; allowing the indicia to become separated from the backing paper, leaving the indicia upon the substrate; and drying on the substrate.

A method for adhering a label, lettering, ink, a tattoo, sketch, design or color (“indicia”) to a substrate, the method comprising:
- providing an indicia-bearing backing paper;
- moistening the indicia-bearing backing paper to form a moistened indicia-bearing layer;
- providing an adhesive layer between the moistened indicia-bearing layer and the substrate;
- placing the moistened indicia-bearing layer on the adhesive layer;
- allowing the indicia to become separated from the backing paper, leaving the indicia upon the substrate;
- and
- drying the substrate.
A method of adhering a label, lettering, ink, a tattoo, sketch, design or color (“indicia”) to a substrate, the method comprising the steps of:
- applying a layer of ink to a plastic film that is supported by a backing paper to form an indicia-bearing film;
- applying water to the indicia-bearing film to form a moistened indicia-bearing layer;
- providing an adhesive layer between the moistened indicia-bearing layer and the substrate;
- placing the indicia-bearing layer on the adhesive layer and the substrate using a moisture bearing medium;
- separating the indicia from the film to create an indicia-bearing substrate;
- and
- drying the indicia-bearing substrate.
