Cut
Note: Before handling Infusible Ink materials, be sure that your hands are dry and free of any oils or lotions.
Place Infusible Ink Transfer Sheet onto StandardGrip mat, liner side down.
In Design Space, select and size your design to fit on apparel blank. Be sure to Mirror your design.
Select Browse all materials, then Infusible Ink Transfer Sheet. If using a Cricut Explore machine, turn Smart Set Dial to Custom first.
Load mat and blade into machine, then press flashing Go button.
Remove cut design from mat and trim away unused area of sheet.
Gently roll cut design so cut lines separate and are more visible. "Cracking" the cut this way makes it easier to remove excess paper from in and around your design.
Use your fingers or tweezers to carefully remove negative pieces from in and around your design, leaving design on liner.
Trim clear liner so it does not extend beyond Cricut EasyPress heat plate.
Apply
