You did such Ann awesome job! Thanks for showing this! I purchased printable vinyl months ago and still never used it. You made it easy to follow so maybe I’ll give it a try!
You should absolutely give it a try! Thanks again for watching 😊
Omg I am glad I found you. I am trying to start my own little thing. And was using the samples that came with the Cricut machine. I was lost in the sauce nothing worked as planed. Now I have a better idea from watching you what I need to be doing and how to use the materials. Thank you so much for this.
Glad you found me too lol! No problem and Thanks I appreciate you for watching 😊 !

Thank you very much and thanks for watching
Thank You for sharing 🎉❤🎉
No problem. Thanks for watching 😊
Thank you for sharing this video. I was very helpful. Also, not sure if you know or not, but you can do larger print n cuts on Cricut now. A4: 8.3″ x 11.7″
Letter: 8.5″ x 11″
Legal: 8.5″ x 14″
Tabloid: 11″ x 17″
A3: 11.7″ x 16.5″
No problem. Yes I know I tried but my machine wouldn’t read the registration lines for some reason. I will definitely try again though. Thanks for watching😊
@@thecraftycloset00 you may have to calibrate it a few times, I know some people had to do it at least 3 times or more.
How can I get my logo print out in cricut machine 3 it sent it to my sublimation printer and only size is 8.5”x11 and is coming fade
Cricut has updated the print and cut to cut larger. You have to go in beta mode and you can now print up to 11×14
Thank you
Yes I tried it but my cricut wouldn't read the registration lines, I do plan on trying it again. Thanks for watching
I’m in the Beta mode and I can’t even cut the 11+14 ! I can only just cut the regular standard cuts only
Can only cut 7.3×7.3
I'm in bm and it isn't
TFS👍🏽
Thank you this is helpful 😊How did you peel the backing off of the HTVRONT printable vinyl? I have some just not sure how to peel it. Do we use some kind of transfer tape or just peel it off?
You just peel it, it doesn’t need transfer tape but like I stated in the video be careful it’s very delicate I start at the very edge of the image bend paper a little then start to peel. It helps if you have sharp nails lol or use a spatula for guidance. Thanks for watching
How does it wash. Would like to see a after washing a few times video thanks
I saw awhile back online that if you spray it with acrylic spray after cutting/printing to seal and make it permanent and make the prints last really works. I used to make 3g Opaque dark transfers with pigment printer and it last long. I wonder if acrylic spray will be better especially on dye printers.
That sounds like it may help, I will have to look into it and perhaps give it a try. Thanks for watching !
Now you just use regular ink jet printer ink. Like the ink that comes w printer? I’ve seen I can make a eco tank printer into sub printer by getting brand new printer and putting special ink inside of it. Jw if this was done w the special ink or ink jet?? Tyz
Yes Just the ink that comes with the inkjet printer. Thanks for watching 😊
Great video. ❤ what software you use for editing the design?
I used design space. Thanks for watching
I mean if works my hippo ink printable heat transfer vinyl? Please let me know thank u
I believe Hippo is sublimation ink so in that case no you won’t be able to use it, it’s only compatible with inkjet printers. Thanks for watching 😊
Does anyone know how to cut printable vinyl if the registration mark didn't make a full box around your design?
Thanks for watching, If your having a problem with your registration marks not reading you may need to re calibrate your machine.
Iv just started doing this, I'm confused as to where I get the images from like do I have to crop out the background before printing or its going to have a white background? Is there an app to use
You can get images for free by googling or buy them from places like etsy or design bundles once you upload them into your cricut design space you will have the option to remove the background if necessary. Thanks for watching
Sorry for the silly question but don't you need a cricut printer to use cricut space design? How do I just print the image with a transparent background so no white or black background will show?
Cricut design space is just the program you use to create your images you can print them from word also just use a print to file and cut out with scissors if you don’t want the cricut to cut your image. Thanks for watching 😊
I ❤ your video, l have a hp 4650 inkjet printer machine , which side did you load your printable heat transfer paper into your machine?
I used the dull looking side I know they both look ths same on both sides lol, so hold up to a light if necessary. Thanks for watching 😊
Will the ink wash out when put to wash??? I’ve seen some that the ink washes out except like the black ink?
Yes overtime your vinyl will fade and wrinkle I will be doing an update on the printable HTV soon. Thanks for watching 😊
Thank you. This maybe a stupid question but is cutting necessary on a simple design? Am i able to go directly from print to t-shirt without a cricut?
Yes it’s possible but it would depend on what type of image your printing and whether it needs to be cut to fit they actually image outline, you could always use scissors I’ve done so before also. Thanks for watching 😊!
@@thecraftycloset00 thank you
When you wash the shirt. Does the ink smear? I have done shirts for my kids but they keep smearing or cracking after being washed.
No it hasn't smeared after mutliple washes it fades a bit but not smear. Thanks for watching
@@thecraftycloset00 thank you!! I look forward to learning more from your videos they are great!
What paper setting did you put on your printer for this material?
I cut it on the glitter iron on setting with the explorer air2. Thanks for watching
Do we not have to flip the Glitter iron on when we cut it? Just asking to make sure I do it right.
Yes make sure to mirror your glitter vinyl. Thanks for watching 😊
Do you seal the transfer after heat pressing to stop it from bleeding?
No you dont seal printable heat transfer vinyl.
can this be done on cotton shirts?
Yes the shirt I used is 100% cotton. Thanks for watching
Was regular printing paper supposed to be printed with the print and cut? Or sublimation paper
Neither it’s printable heat transfer paper. It’s a HTV that you can print on.
Do you think an hp officejet9012e would be the right inkjet printer ?
Yes! That’s an inkjet printer. Thanks for watching 😊!
@@thecraftycloset00 made my first shirt and love it !!
Congratulations 🎉!
can you do that all the editing even without subscription to design space?
Yes you can use the free version you will only pay if you are using there non free fonts and images. Thanks for watching
How does it hold up washing?
I haven’t washed it yet but once I do I will post and update video! Thanks for watching 😊
Is printable heat transfer different from the iron on transfer paper
No they are technically the same thing just different styles of printable HTV. Thanks for watching ☺️
If we're not using glitter iron on do we still need to offset it? I'm so confused
No if your not using another vinyl in addition to the transfer paper then you do not. Thanks or watching
I don’t get it! You didn’t mirrored? What did you do with the paper underneath the hearts?
Printable heat transfer paper doesn’t need to be mirrored. Not sure I understand you other question about the logo sorry. Thanks for watching ☺️
do you know if can i use an iron or it won’t work?
I’m not sure about an iron since the hottest part of the heat is usually in the center of a iron. Where as a heat press the heat spreads equally. Thanks for watching
Amazing video, is this HTV paper printable vinyl or heat transfer paper?
The HTVront is heats transfer paper. Thanks for watching
@@thecraftycloset00I’m confused. Why is “vinyl” mentioned if it is paper?
If i dont have a cricut can i cut the HTV by hand?
you can cut it by hand , but you will still need to print it out using a software program
@@thecraftycloset00 I'm using Canva to create my design, I have a question if I get a cricut can I create in Canva and then use the cricut to cut out my design, or do i have to use design space exclusively.? TIA
What did it look like after the wash.. i’ve tried this before and it faded so so bad 🥴
After about 7-8 washes its has also faded and wrinkled lol. Thanks for watching
what application , or website is this you are using to edit ?
I use Canva Pro and Movavi
Love your video! Are you still going to make the hello Kitty video?
Thanks for watching, the hello kitty is in the printable vinyl update video😊
❤💕💜🌙
Thanks for watching
what brand Printable HTV did you use ?
its the HTVront transfer paper for dark fabrics. Thanks for watching
I have an inkjet printer with sublimation ink, will this still work on printable htv?
What kind of inkjet printer do you have with sublimation ink? Because inkjets only use cartridge ink?
@@thecraftycloset00 oops, I just checked. I have an Epsom ecotank
@@thecraftycloset00 it's a refillable tank
@@koltshaw3158 so if you have a Ecotank you won’t be able to use the printable heat transfer vinyl, you will need an inkjet printer in order to be able to do what you see on this video. I have an HP 3755 .
@@thecraftycloset00 well that's unfortunate. Don't suppose I could get special ink for my Canon printer?
Now did you flatten this before sending it to cricut and cutting it out?
These were PNG files so I didn't need to flatten them first ,there made for print then cut if your using an SVG file then you would need to flatten it first. Thanks for watching
@@thecraftycloset00 Thank you so much for your reply so you are saying Flatten the SVG files then P-n-C and don't flatten the PNG files just print and cut??? appreciate you
@@createdesigns6389 yes you don’t need to flatten PNG files because they are already attached 😊 only SVG if you want to turn that into a print then cut file
@@thecraftycloset00 You are such a blessing thank you so so much for your help and your time.
@@createdesigns6389 anytime glad I could help and happy crafting ☺️!
How is it for washability?
Ive washed it several times it does fade slightly but thats all. Thanks for watching
The package says your using Heat Transfer PAPER, correct?? Not VINYL??
Yes. Technically they are the same though printable HTV. The difference is the heat transfer paper has a paper backing that has to be peeled away while just plain printable HTV does not. Hope that makes sense 😊 and Thanks for watching !
Do you have a link for the printable htv?
I used the HTVront transfer paper for dark fabrics I got it from amazon.
@@thecraftycloset00 thank you!!!!
What kind of printer do you need for this?
You need a inkjet printer. Thanks for watching 😁
Thank youuu!!!😊 so you only use a ink jet printer, a cameo vinyl cutter, and your laptop. Is that correct, not including the other small supplies.
Where did you get the hello Kitty from
Etsy
Which side do u print on??
They have recently updated the vinyl and the paper side now has htvront printed on the paper side so its now easy to determine the printable side. Thanks for watching
What ink did u used?
Cartridge ink. Thanks for watching
Pigment ink?
I'm a bit stupid and confused. I heard you say that I need an ink jet printer and that printable heat transfer paper. Can I send an image to an ink jet printer from my computer and have it print?-
Without that other machine?
There are no stupid questions 😊, you can print through word and cut out the image by hand if you don’t have a cricut, but if you want to do the method I used like the slice or offset you will need a design software like design space or silhouette or something with those capabilities
@thecraftycloset00 gotcha.
I need to have a clear, transparent background when it is ironed on -..can I share with you what I need and you might guide me?
@@user-ic5em6kg4b sure email me at askthecraftycloset@gmail, and Ill do my best to help you
@@thecraftycloset00 ok.....
I don't know how to.do.from.here either! I clicked on your handle and I got.no where.
How many time can Wash
After about 20 washes using this particular brand of printable HTV is no longer wearbale unless you want to wear it around the the house 😊! Thanks for watching and I have an update on this coming soon!
I have tried this brand and several others and none of them washed well. They all faded like crazy
Did you use a special ink?
no its the cartridge ink that comes with the printer. Thanks for watching !
Does it fade in the wash?
Yes after about 20 washes it’s faded and wrinkled! Thanks for watching and look out for the update on the printable HTV coming soon!
If you have a "dye ink" based printer (like those lower end ecotanks), it will fade easily same as making stickers with it. I use to make 3g opaque transfer papers and using "pigment ink" based printer last longer. I read online that spraying with acrylic spray after cutting the prints last longer but havent tried it. It is worth trying though. I tried it on stickers and it works for outdoor stickers on vinyl. Hope it helps. I have a low end et2720 that I successfully replaced with Korean made pigment ink and I been using it for about 3 years now. I make sure I regularly print atleast 2-3 times a week. I have not even have any head cleaning even ones. I have my son print on it when I go on vacations. I downloaded a free epson "CYMK purge color sheet" to print twice a week. Ink is cheap, it consumes less ink than cleaning.
I got this but after one wash it faded 😢
I haven't washed it yet but I will do an update video once I do. Thanks for watching
Printing with sublimation ink on printable vinyl seems to last longer than the regular ink.
