Disclosed is a method for image formation which can improve adhesion,
transferability, and print quality. The method for image formation
comprises the steps of: providing an intermediate transfer recording
medium comprising a separable receptive layer provided on at least one
side of a substrate sheet; forming a first image on the receptive layer
by using a thermal transfer sheet comprising a dye layer; forming a
transparent adhesive layer on the receptive layer with the first image
provided thereon by using a thermal transfer sheet comprising a
transparent adhesive layer; forming a second image on the transparent
adhesive layer by using a thermal transfer sheet comprising a heat-fusion
ink layer; and transferring the processed receptive layer from the
intermediate transfer recording medium to an object to form an image on
the object.
