im so glad i stumbled across your channel! just got my cricut for christmas and wanna make my friend a rolled flower shadowbox for her daughters nursery! just found you searching a rolled flower tutorial and now jst made yet another amazon order for some scoring tools lol!! im getting my heat press soon and cant wait! sublimation confuses me looking into it lol not sure ill do it
Welcome! I'm so glad you found my channel! That is exactly why I wanted to make this video! Hopefully you can use it to make an informed decision to see if you want to dive into sublimation or not :)
Thanks so much! Have you noticed if this bleaches the shirt on such high heat? We heat press our tags on our shirts (triblend or poly/cotton) and we have to get special low temp ink transfers to avoid leaving a "heat mark".
I have never had any issues with heat marks, but that may be something for the triblend shirts? It shouldn’t be an issue for poly/cotton blends though.
You can also use dark color blanks with sublimation if you’re comfortable using bleach as a extra step (I have had lots of success with orical 651 as custom stencils for bleach)
Yes! I am going to talk about bleach later, I just wanted to keep things straight forward since when you're new to something too much information can be confusing! But that is definitely a viable option!
My problem is how can I print and cut large image? I git a silhouette cameo 4 pro I am new on Cameo, Y bought because I tought I can prin and cut big image but not.
Hi Liz! Sublimation is a totally different process than print then cut on a cutting machine. I am not a Silhouette user so I can't offer any advice for this. Sorry!
Hi Alex, I am brand new to sublimation and came across your series after seeing the canva tutorial. As I was listening to this video (I haven't done my first project yet, but will be), I heard you mention about not to use white because there is no white ink. Can you please explain more about this since your canva tutorial you did, the design had a white font. Just thinking of how to work with/around this with my design work. Thanks.
