DIRECTIONS:
- Measure you mug working space, for the 15oz mug its approx 3"x 2"
- Open Cricut Design Space and start a new canvas. Insert Easter .svg's "gotta get HOPPIN'" and "I DRINK COFFEE SO I DONT CRACK".
- Size each to make sure it fits your mug working space in design space and attach alike colors.
- Cut with the Cricut and turn mirror image on.
- Follow on screen instructions changing your infusible ink paper color as guided. Make sure your infusible ink paper is color faced up. After it's been cut, peel away excess infusible ink paper.
- Go back to your canvas screen and highlight over your .svg images and flatten them, this changes the svg to a print/cut and can be used for guidance on placement. Mirror image before you Print but do not cut.
- Warm up the Cricut Mug Press.
- Once printed place "HOPPIN'" under "gotta get".
- Using tweezers place "HOPPIN'" together from your different colored infusible ink sheets onto the SAME paper as "gotta get". Using tweezers place eggshells on top of the edges of the "c" and "k" in "crack". This will make for one single press together.
- Wipe down mug with cloth. Place your infusible ink image sticky side to the Circut mug and tape with heat resistant tape so it doesn't move. Place in Mug Press, press Mug Press down, and wait until all dot lights are lit and you hear a beep to open. Let it completely cool before peeling away infusible ink sheet off mug.
JOANN HACKS:
- After cutting your .svg image out go back and flatten it so you can print the image out on paper, be sure to mirror the image before printing, this way you can place the paper under the single press sheet you are going to combine to use on the single cup press.
- Wipe mug down with a cloth to get any small lint off or it will show.
