Abstract: Methods for transferring an image to a substrate are provided. An image can be applied onto an image-receptive coating of a heat transfer sheet. The heat transfer sheet can further include a heat transfer layer overlying a base sheet such that the image-receptive coating overlies the heat transfer layer. The heat transfer sheet can be torn substantially along a perforation line to remove the heat transfer sheet from a coloring book, and then positioned adjacent to a substrate. The image, the image-receptive coating, and at least a portion of the heat transfer layer can then be transferred to the substrate, with the base sheet not transferring to the substrate. Coloring books are also provided that include a plurality of heat transfer sheets bound together along a common edge.
