Default polyshrink question

Has anyone ever printed on polyshrink from the computer? Does this work? I need to make some charlie brown ornaments, and i thought poly shrink would be good.
I am doing some of the ornaments, printing charlie brown scenes off line on transparency... then rolling them and putting them in the ornament.. but anyway.. we thought shrinky dink would be cute too.
my boss won the silver snoopy award at NASA this year, and we are doing a charlie brown tree in honor of him.. but didnt realize there arent a lot of charlie brown ornaments out there.
we are also making a snoopy doghouse tree topper.. it will be really cute!
TIA for anyone who has the answers i need.

Default shrink plastic

Hi! You cannot print directly onto the normal shrink plastic. It will wipe right off - even if you sand it first - and even if you try putting embossing powder on. However, there is a shrink plastic that you can put through your injet. It is found at: http://www.imaginationgallery.net/shrink.html They have a lot of other specialty papers as well. I've used this shrink plastic and most of their other items. All have worked out great - no complaints.

Default shrink plastic

I just bought the neatest shrink plastic from Darcies. You get a cd with the cutest pictures that you can print on the shrink plastic. They are all colored in for you. Check it out at www.darcie.com.
I bought the fall and Christmas set and just love them. Good luck. Oh and she does sell just the sheets alone too.

Default I think ...

the correct link is www.darciesstamps.com
The individual blank Darcies sheets are $2.25 each - the microformat ones are $1.80 each

WOWIE ZOWIE!!!!! I love this site!! My house is decorated a little bit country, and I only have a few stamps in that style. Darcie's has more really cute country style stamps and papers than I've seen anywhere else. Thanks for the info!!
