This does happen with the 127 Mak, (mine at least). Saturday night's supposed to be perfect, so I'll try this out.

(Wow! I just looked at the date of this thread. I'm glad Cloudy Nights keeps old threads around...)

I just ordered a die-cut 20 x 28" sheet of flock paper. This weekend I'll test with some black construction paper.
