Awesome video, still waiting on my printer to get here. Have you ever turned your image to cut, in design space and had the Cricut cut it, once you print it from Microsoft word? I ask this because I can’t cut a straight, if you paid me to, lol. I would be so afraid I would cut the image too close or not close enough.

@EmmasCottage 2 жыл бұрын

You can, but design space has limitations of only cutting 9.25 x 6.75 which honestly is too small for most adult shirts. I’ve just started playing with the SOLO cutter by StarCraft and it will cut much larger print and cuts. Maybe someday Cricut will print and cut larger.

I cant tell you how much this tutorial helped me. I have been struggling for a few hours to get my sublimation to work on my glitter HTV and now I know a better way of doing this. Question though. Have you ever tried to get Cricut design space to print and then attempt to get it to cut it out as well? I am doing a sunflower and was hoping to get Cricut design space to cut it out too. The mirror option when printing the sublimation graphic messes with design space and it can’t read between the black lines to cut it and sends error messages. That’s what I’m trying to do, to no avail. I will use your Word option though to be able to now know how to make the image bigger. Much thanks. That’s my biggest gripe with design space. The maximum 6.25 x 9.25 printing really limits us crafters.

What about the glitter htv allows the sublimation to attach over normal htv? And for clarification, I can sublimate on any color, cotton shirt with a white (ish) glitter htv? And if I wanted to use a darker glitter htv (for effect) that would be ok? Thank you for the great video.

@EmmasCottage 3 жыл бұрын

Excellent questions Mpakirk! Glitter HTV has polyester in it, that is why we can sublimate on it! It does have to be a light colored Glitter HTV to work. I've only used white, but I hear the light colored rainbow Glitter HTV works as well. Yes, you can use the Glitter HTV on any color of cotton shirt!

There are ways to print an image on multiple pages and then piece them together once printed, watch my video on how to print bigger prints. Both of these printers need to be converted to sublimation.
