Hi Helvyn.  Do you have some wide paper tape?  Use a piece that is slighty larger than the negative image you have,  Stick it to your t-shirt or trousers a few times to remove a bit of the stickiness.  Then apply the tape to the neg bits.  Rub well all over and gently peel up.  The neg bits should stick to the tape.  You can then use the negs in the same way as the positives.  Place the tape where you want the image, rub well, then gently peel off.  The negative image should stay where you want it too. 

Hope this helps.[/color][/font]

You are more than welcome.  It can be a bit fiddly if the negs have tiny pieces but I find it quite theraputic!!  But then I'm a sad case ::)  The biggest tip is make sure you unsticky the tape first.

Good luck and have fun.[/color][/font]

I have been trying for a while to find out how to use the negative bits, thanks for the help.

you can also cut round the image very near to the negative and use that either by decoupage or just stuck down with glue i find this way helpful esp if there are a lot of fiddly bits that sometimes move when you try to pull off the tape, you can also buy peel off sheets that are clear double sided so you can see where you are postioning them down onto,you can get a4 size or the peel off size from most shops  :D

You can also use Micropore, that's the hyperallergenic tape. The same piece can be used over and over again. In the craft gallery there is a card I made with the negative bits.

If you have a tiny punch, e.g for making holes in tags, you could punch out some from the edges on the backing sheet and use these in the centre of daisies or other flowers

Hi!
You can also punch out small shapes from the top and bottom, and the sides can be cut off used as borders.
