The present invention includes a method for transferring an image from one substrate to another. The method includes providing an image transfer sheet that is comprised of a substrate layer, a release layer and an image-imparting layer that may comprise a low density polyethylene or other polymeric component having a melting temperature within a range of 90&#xb0;-700&#xb0; C. An image is imparted to the low density polyethylene area with an image-imparting medium. A second image-receiving substrate is provided. The second image-receiving substrate is contacted to the first image transfer sheet at the polymer layer. Heat is applied to the image transfer sheet so that the low density polyethylene encapsulates the image-imparting medium and transfers the encapsulates to the image-receiving substrate, thereby forming a mirror image on the image-receiving substrate.

Image transfer sheet

The present invention includes an image transfer sheet. The image transfer sheet comprises a release layer and a polymer layer. One or more of the release layer and the polymer layer comprise titanium oxide or other white pigment.
