Angie, I am brand new to sublimation. You have helped me so much. I love your videos. You teach in a way that beginners understand. I am open to any other videos that may help a beginner like me. Thank you.
So far you're the one and only Cricut RU-vidr that I have subscribed to. you use the chapters to break up your video, explain details, actually tell a story from beginning to end, and don't just jump-cut around or give us nonsense that wastes our time. Also, you have great descriptions on all of your videos and effectively use them to give us important links and details so we don't have to scrub through your video searching for when you told us something, like dimensions.
Look up Jennifer Maker - Cricut. On youtube. She does heaps more and explains it better. This is alright, but she talks so fast in this and doesn't really know what she wants to say.
When God said “talented people” stand over here! You were in front of the line! I have been anticipating you coming out with something awesome! (Checking every day) Had no idea it would be this! Exactly what I wanted! Thank you Angie!
Angie I just got my MugPress this week and was intimidate until I started watching your videos. I am a professor and struggle with making videos. Your videos are great. Back to the mug press, I got brave and made my first one and it is beautiful. Only one thing, I put the template on the mug upside down. LOL. It is beautiful. I'll bet I only do that once. I made another one this morning with pictures with all 5 of my grandsons. I am so proud and happy I found you. I am looking at your site today to buy some templates.
I watched your video on the mug press, and bought a mug press. I started using infusible ink transfer sheets and infusible ink pens and I was hooked. Then I watched your video on converting the printer, and bought a printer and ink. I just received printer and ink and will be converting today and starting my sublimation journey. I am so excited to do photo mugs. I just want you to know you are contributing to my addiction. LOL
Thanks for the video. I got the Cricut mug press, it is easy to use. Just picked up an Epson Sub printer, sub paper & sub ink, just need to take it out the box and try this!
Angie, you're the best. I found this video on Pinterest and had to watch on RU-vid to see full screen..Wow, just wow such detail, and you answered every question I had.
My first mug was done using my printer and sub ink! I made a mug for my husband with his commanders coin logo and his units motto on the back. Never even thought I couldn’t lol I just didn’t feel like dragging out the infusible ink sheets lol 😂 love these mugs! Photo mugs are so popular!! I now have to make a bunch of mugs for his unit so people can buy them with the logo on it. They make great retirement and going away gifts! ❤️
I finally got my sub printer on Friday! I’d be lost on all this without your detailed videos. SO GLAD that you mentioned the double mirror thing. I’m going to set my sub printer on mirror and I would not have I known to refrain from mirroring in DS. Thanks, thanks, thanks....
This was so helpful - I just got a sublimation printer and couldn't figure out how to use the Cricut design space with it. You just saved me hours of frustration. :) The sizing is key!
You could use the trimmer to cut neater than scissors. You could use the bullzip virtual printer to avoid the black line. You can use alcohol to clean the mug.
Angie I'm so happy that Miss Rita told us about you website I have been trying do to a name going side ways on a cup. Love the photo cups you have done with Dad on the side your kids are adorable.
Just what I needed. I brought my Epson ecotank printer yesterday and waiting for my heat press machine 8 in 1 to be delivering by the end of the week. Almost ready to try sublimation!!! Thanks!
@@AngieHolden I just got the free templete plus the extra ones ☺️ Some of the links are broken, trying to see the mat and the sublimation paper but those are broken
I do not have any of those jagged edge or sawed edges at all in my design space. I just bought my cricut, mug press and got my easypress today! I am trying to learn all that i can so I can make a little extra money for trips and the vet lol.
Beautiful! You can also use photo paper with sublimation. Just remember to put parchment paper around mug so it doesn’t bleed through to the mug press.
@@katiehewes423 I have used any photo paper. I have a Epson ET 2720, which I converted over to be sublimation. It works great. I have done, with photo paper, mugs, shirts, towels, and some other stuff. I just wash them inside out and so far so good! Hope this helps.
@@robinjohnston7986, thanks! I just got an Epson and sublimation ink, but was waiting (not so patiently) for the paper. I'll be setting up the printer tomorrow! Wish me luck!
Thank you so much Angie, you answered all of my Questions, your videos are so informative. Can't wait to try my cricut mug press, just got it on Monday, but wasn't sure how to start, thank you again 😊
Great video, learnt a lot thank you. My biggest problem is I can't cut a straight line lol, so sent to cut as well. Used copy paper setting worked great 👌
Thank you Angie! You always have such informative videos--and links. Super helpful. You really break down all the steps in a clear, easy to follow manner. Just got my mug press last week and, you've already shown great options for non-Cricut substrates--super helpful. I bought the additional templates, and am sure they'll be useful for some last-minute gifts. Thanks, again.
Thank you sooo much. i watched your epson video turning the printer in to a sublimation printer it was amazing. Thank you sooo much. your channel is amazing! im making my first mug as i type this lol i will let you know how it turns out!
Your tutorials are so informative and easy to follow. Thank you. I converted a brand new printer and created my first sublimation mug. It turned out pretty good. I needed to work on the size since it did get distorted a bit, but overall it turned out awesome!
Thank you for another wonderful video. I am learning so much from you! I made a photo mug after watching this video last night - first sublimation project ever. I'm back again today to watch the part about using more than one photo on the mug to work on some Father's Day gifts.
Super cute! I usually buy a commercial machine for any decorating, ie, embroidery machine, heat press, cutter. But for the mugs, I think this press is going to work great. Thanks for your tutorial. :)
Angie, you are great! I’m making my first mug today. I need a second Printer for sublimation but in the meantime I will play with what I have. Love the videos!
@@MsJmper I converted an Epson 2720 and it was cheap and easy to do. Make sure you watch Angie’s video on converting it to sublimation ink. And download the ICC profile if you get the ink because the colors will be off. Good luck!
Another grand slam! Thanks Angie! You have been so helpful to us, thank you. I contacted cricut to let them know that the template for their small mug was too big and I messed up several mugs so they are replacing them. I can't wait to try sublimating the photos. We appreciate you.
Hi. This was my first time seeing any of your videos.Just subscribed. So glad that I found you! Thank you for your hard work and dedication! Great tutorial!!
Great video! I love seeing how creative you are! But three things irk me... 1. When you say “leave-er” instead of “lev-er” and 2. when you put the lint roller sticky side down after you use it. And 3. I would have made the two pictures equal width on the background of the pictures. 😬 I’m looking forward to the next video as always!
Thank you so much for the wonderful tutorial! I’m waiting on my epson printer (after watching your video on how to convert it for sublimation!) and can’t wait to make these mugs.
Hi there Angie! Boy....do you ever explaine well. Thanks so much for the info on the Mug Press. Question: Some people say to use Butcher paper only, some say it is safe to also use Parchement paper. Please clear this up for me. Thanks!!! Susan D.
Hi, I love your videos very easy. Very helpful too. I need to ask you about the mug press photos we can do it in a normal printer instead of a sublation. Coz I don't have that. Please advise me on how I do photos in a mug press with a dishwasher safe. Thanks
Once again, you hit it out of the park with your tutorial!! Thanks so much!!! Two quick questions: 1. Have you tried using copy paper yet as a "blowout paper"? 2. I keep checking back...please please please can you do a tutorial doing a full wrap on a skinny tumbler? I've seen a couple, but somehow I think YOU would do this perfectly! Did I say please? LOLOLOL
I don't use copy paper as the protective paper. Generally I use the paper in this video or just butcher paper which is super cheap. And I am working on some things now that MIGHT work...so stay tuned on the full wrap!
just finished my first mug, haven't taken the paper off yet, but very excited to see how it came out. this video helped me so much thank you. ps: I purchased the templetes you had and made the proud dog mom one for my sister. if you have any others please let me know.
I am almost all ready to go into sublimation, I watched your video on how to turn an epson into a sublimation printer and went out and bought one I just haven’t set it up yet as I am super busy!! I got my mug press and ordered some mugs from Michaels and I have the other supplies except the paper that goes around the mugs before you put them in the mug press, what is that paper called and is it necessary? Where do you get it and is it costly? I got your email about introducing myself and I have a vacation coming up and plan to answer because I want to make sure I include everything!! I love your videos, they are super helpful and the best on RU-vid in my opinion!!
It needs to be a sublimation printer. You can see what I use here: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE--f4oH2x-Nu0.html&lc=UgxoPFwmC1ppPSPJDZp4AaABAg
Thank You Angie you always go beyond to teach us how to do crafting. One thing i have been trying to find out but i never seen a video on it, if you put the heat resistant tape over part of your sublimation mug (not infusible ink) does that not cause the image not to sublimate fully esp if its a full wrap design?
Ok. Made my second one but it left a mark. Not sure why? Any tips on getting it out? I saw thinner but not sure. Also tried white vinegar it so far that has not worked.
I saw somebody who added an extra step and used their machine to cut the paper to size and thought it was so smart. You mentioned you can export out of Cricut ds but I’ve never seen that option?
Hello Angie My name is Susana and I have been watching your videos and I love how you explain everything good. I have a question 🙋🏻♀️ I have been making my own mugs with images and it doesn’t look good The images looks like dark yellowish. I’m doing everything you saying but they don’t come out clear. I have checked my printer 🖨 Can you please help Please please
I uploaded a photo of my granddaughter into Design Space. The coloring looked great. But when I printed it with my Epson Sure Color F170 printer, the photo looked a little too dark. I'm wondering if I have to have a certain resolution - like 300 DPI.
Tha is for the great info ... you mentioned that you set your printer to always ‘mirror’. How do you do that? I will admit that my first mug sublimation I forgot to mirror! Bob became Bop!
Thank you so much. Your video was great. I want to make these. Along with the tumbles. Any advice on the best produces to use? Please let me know and thank you again!

Thank you for the video. Can you tell me the difference between the sublimation and using the Cricut infusible ink?? I am still new at all of this so please forgive me if this is a silly question. Thanks!!
Infusible Ink is basically sublimation ink in sheet form that you cut with your Cricut. What I am using here is a sublimation printer so I can print out images.
