Step 1:
First, click here for the design in Cricut® Design Space™.
Step 2:
Size the design as you would like it to appear on your t-shirt.
TIP: Hide (or delete) the translated version you do not need.
Step 3:
Click ‘Make It’ in the upper right corner of your screen.
Step 4:
In your preview screen, check ‘Mirror’ in the left panel for each mat, to reverse your image.
Step 5:
Click ‘Continue’ in the bottom right corner of your screen and choose the material for your first layer.
TIP: When working with multiple iron-on layers or materials, be sure to pay close attention to the left panel on your preview screen to know which layer is cutting, so you know which material to attach to the mat and load into your machine. Be sure to change the material if using more than one type (matte, glitter, foil, etc.).
Step 6:
Place the iron-on material, shiny-side down, onto your cutting mat. Load the mat into your Cricut® machine, then press the blinking Cricut® icon to start cutting; then once done, upload your mat and carefully remove material from your mat.
Step 7:
Repeat Step 6 for each mat layer.
Step 8:
Now, use scissors to cut your design from the iron-on material rolls. Next, use your weeder tool to remove all the excess material around and inside your design. You’ll be left with just the reversed design on the clear plastic carrier sheets, which are slightly sticky.
Step 9:
Preheat your EasyPress™ to the appropriate temperature for your material and, if needed, adjust the timer.
TIP: See the Quick Reference Guide, included with your EasyPress™, for temperature and times or click here for an interactive guide. You can also use an iron to press your material. Just follow the instructions included in the iron-on material packaging.
Step 10:
Place your t-shirt on top of your EasyPress™ mat and then preheat the fabric for 5 seconds.
Step 11:
Place the carrier sheet with your design, so it’s sticky-side down, onto your t-shirt. You should be able to see the layer through the carrier sheet, just as it will appear once ironed.
Step 12:
Place your EasyPress™ on top of the design, apply the appropriate pressure for your material and press the time button. Once it beeps, flip over your t-shirt and press for another 15 seconds. If your material is the warm peel type, you may go ahead and peel off the carrier sheet. If your material is a cool peel type, let it cool completely before removing the carrier sheet.
