Hey Mariella! I personally think it makes a difference. I know lots of people say they just use printer paper, but I find the Subli Paper holds the ink instead of absorbing it and my designs come out brighter and crisper for it. Plus, you can get pretty good deals on Subli paper. It's really not that much for a great project. Thanks so much for crafting with me and happy sublimating! 🩷

@@KimByers I just started. I have not much yet but I certainly will do more.

Hey Tanya! When I made this video you had to use a brand new printer to convert to sublimation, but there are now "clean-out" kits if you have an old printer that has used regular ink. I've not tried them, but I've had comments from others that they work. Best of luck! And thanks so much for crafting with me! 🩷

Hey Rachael! It's been a while, but I believe I used permanent vinyl and I cleaned the surface with alcohol before. I hope it all came together for you!

@@shawntelmonroe3338 that’s been me the past few days. Wasting my good paper and ink 🥲

Thank you! You too! ❤️

Thanks Lisa! ❤️

Hey! You can adjust the small dials, but often times I have to do two presses depending on the girth of my blank. Thanks so much for crafting with me and hope to see you in the next one! 🩷

I so hope it worked Lauren! Thank you so much for crafting with me! 🩷

Hey Dalia! I've not tried it, but there are new kits on the market that help you to clean them out. I would google it, and reference 2024 so you get the most recent video on the topic. I hope it works and you can start sublimating! 🩷

I'm so sorry Erika! Before you give up I would calibrate and if that doesn't work I would contact Cricut support. I've had really good experiences with the Cricut team and they may be able to walk you through a quick fix. I hope it works out! And thank you for crafting with me! 🩷

I would think this is a calibration issue. You might want to calibrate and if your next test still has problems I would contact Cricut support. I've had a really good experience with them. I hope it works out and you can get back to crafting! 🩷

Hey Lisa! Thanks so much for crafting with me. I will be sharing a second vid on designing in the next few days. Happy summer to you!

Hey Georgia May! I just grabbed that image from Canva. It's been a while since I made this video, but this was pre-AI so I'm banking it was just a image on the platform. Thanks so much for stopping in and happy crafting!

Hey Teresa! I would think calibration would be the trick for that issue. Have you done that yet? Thanks for crafting with me!

@@KimByers I did calibrate this but It didn't change anything. That is why I asked you

Yes! 🤣 Wow! 2004!!!!! Can’t believe I said that and it wasn’t caught in editing. 🫣

Oh we can absolutely talk about digital products for Etsy! Thanks so much for joining me!

True! But not everyone knows how to do all the things so I like to share as much as possible. Thanks for stopping in the channel and happy sublimating!

So the tattoo does have a clear border around it, or behind it, but you can make that smaller if you make the "edge" or "outline" smaller. Thanks so much for crafting with me!

Hey Nicole! When I use the right temp and pressure usually no. I also tear my paper around the edges so if there is any kind of a mark it's not a straight edge. Hope that helps and happy crafting!

If you want to read it from the outside, then you would mirror image it. The packaging will help you too if you get confused before cutting. Thanks so much for crafting with me!

@@KimByers thank you

Oh that is such a bummer Cheryl! I'm so not techy myself. I would personally call Cricut. I've found their help desk to be great and they've likely had to help lots of people with these types of things. Hope you get it worked out!!

So glad it was helpful!

So glad it all came together! 🩷

Thanks for crafting with me Angie! 🩷

Carol, hmmm... did you manually move your card over/down? I've had a few designs do that to me and I had to make sure that the edge was either very snug to the mat (if it needed to go to the right) or a bit looser (if needed to go to the left). It stinks because you waste cardstock having to adjust. Maybe use a blank sheet of regular paper to test it and get it centered? I've only had that happen to me twice and it was the design in design space. I hope you figure it out and can get back to crafting!

@@KimByers This was most helpful! Thank you so much. I am learning so much from you!

Thanks so much for crafting with me Carol! Happy card making! 🩷

Hey Cheryl! The apps change so often and I don't use the iPad much since I'm making tutorials. I hope you figure it out. All the same functions should be there, just in different spots. It might be worth a Google! 😀 Thanks so much for crafting with me!

Hey Candice! Here's what I use: ⭐ Canon Printer MG7720 - amzn.to/3rlYuib I've had it for years and it's still printing strong! Thanks so much for crafting with me. :)

So glad it was helpful Rochelle! And thank you for the nice note. 🩷

Thanks Brenda :)

So glad it was helpful Rebecca 🩷

Hey Tonda! All of the links to the Creative Fabrica sets I used are in the description. If you're referring to the design template, here it is: www.creativefabrica.com/product/20oz-skinny-tumbler-kit-bundle/ref/1394776/ Thanks so much for crafting with me! 🩷

Hey Martina! If you mean for the temps, I used the Cricut temp app. You can also find it online by searching Cricut Temperature Guide. Thanks for crafting with me!

Thanks so much Stacy! 🩷 Happy card making!

Congrats on getting the Joy! And so glad to have you here! Happy card making. 🩷

I'm not completely sure of the exact size without going back into the template (this was several years ago), but yes, I would say these are about 1.75x2 Thanks so much for crafting with me! 🩷
