[@MakingwithMarilyn]

[@kathystocker4519]

I love all your videos'. I have walked through the crafting world with you for years. You always explain things step by step and have so many hacks to make things work. I revisit so many of them. You always have an answer for what I'm looking for. Thanks!

[@MakingwithMarilyn]

Thank you so so much, Kathy!!! What a blessing to find your comment. It made my day:)

[@kemo0507]

That was great Marilyn and I'd love to see you the finished product.

[@MakingwithMarilyn]

Thank you Kevin!!! I am putting the video of the tumbler up today:)

[@TheCreativeHomesteader]

Do you have a way of doing a video with using 11x17" paper? Loved this video, thank you.

[@MakingwithMarilyn]

Are you wanting a tumbler design on the 11 x 17 or are you wanting to learn just how to print on 11 x 17? I'd be happy to do one.

[@jacquelinesmith3450]

Yes, I would like to try Inkscape. Very helpful video. Thanks.

[@MakingwithMarilyn]

Thank you so much for watching!!!

[@Love2artncraft]

I've always found your Inkscape videos so helpful. Thank you for sharing and I hope you continue to share more of these types of videos for us newbies to this design software.

[@MakingwithMarilyn]

Thank you so very much!

Thank you so much!!!

[@MAHWL]

I've had Inkscape for a out a year now and I'm still learning how to use it 🤣 but I love how you explained what you were able to do with the tools in Inkscape! Some things I'm familiar with and other stuff I learned so thank you for this step by step! And I don't use sublimation yet but I might do like Nicole said and follow your steps just to get more familiar with the tools 😃😅😊

[@MakingwithMarilyn]

When I first started learning Inkscape, I would just sit on my couch and follow along with Inkscape videos to practice. After getting through the learning curve, I love love love it! Especially the "free" part:)

[@MAHWL]

Oh yeah I definitely love the free part! 🤣🤣 I just seem to want to learn something when I need it at that moment and put off the learning part til I need it again 🤦🏽‍♀️🤷🏽‍♀️😬

[@TYJ419]

GREAT tutorial Marilyn and love that design! I don't know if I would have thought to use multiple images to make the destress area darker. Definitely will have to remember that. I've used Inkscape before and somewhat....familiar with it. Thanks for sharing the process. Tracey

[@MakingwithMarilyn]

Thank you Tracey! I appreciate it and you!!!

[@thecraftedmind1735]

Great instructions and cut design!

[@MakingwithMarilyn]

Thanks so much!

[@kraftfullyme]

[@MakingwithMarilyn]

[@dsmith3588]

Another great video.

[@MakingwithMarilyn]

Thank you!!!

[@preciouspeaces]

Marilyn Marilyn Marilyn🤦🏽‍♀️I’m gonna try Inkscape once more🤔and I’m gonna follow(copy)this video step by step💙🙃

[@MakingwithMarilyn]

Nicole, I was thinking about you when I made this video!!!

[@MAHWL]

I'm with you Nicole lol 😆 I'm going to follow these steps to learn the parts of Inkscape I wasn't familiar with! 😅

[@mollycaldwell359]

Thank you for your tutorial on inkscape. I open it up and i am lost now i will try again

[@MakingwithMarilyn]

What are you trying to do in Inkscape? Maybe I can help.

[@mollycaldwell359]

I am trying to make designs like you but also edit some designs

[@mollycaldwell359]

Here are the images that i want to learn how edit. Need to remove 18 and change color of headband

[@MAHWL]

Can you do or do you have a video about combining images and slicing or removing what you don't want from the 2 combined images?

[@MakingwithMarilyn]

Maybe this is what you are talking about? kzbin.info/www/bejne/iZPFgISPa5aJeMk In Inkscape, it will depend on whether the things you are working with are images (like pngs) or cut files. The way you slice/clip depends on the type. I think I might talk about that in the video, but I'm not sure. If the video I linked to doesn't answer your question, let me know and I am happy to do another one that does:)

[@sheilamurphy6270]

How do i make my inkscape look like yours with bigger and easier to see icons?

[@MakingwithMarilyn]

Do you use a Mac or PC?

[@melaniethomas2181]

My tumbler design came out backwards how can I fix it

[@MakingwithMarilyn]

Mirror it to print it.

[@jessiegibson9023]

Good video thanks

[@MakingwithMarilyn]

Thank you Jessie!

[@christinagoodwin3754]

I am brand new to sublimation. My question is do you create each of those images before you put them together on inkscape or do you buy them . I am wondering would it be easier to learn to create those images or buy them on etsy

[@MakingwithMarilyn]

First of all, welcome to sublimation! It is a wonderful technology with so many possibilities. I absolutely love it!!! I have a membership to Creative Fabrica. When I first joined it, I thought I would join for a month for my trial membership and then cancel, but it is so worth the price (which is pretty low). Here is a link to a free trial membership for a month. You can download unlimited things and then cancel within the first 30 days if you just want to try it out. With it, I rarely ever purchase anything from Etsy. All of the images I used on this came from Creative Fabrica. www.creativefabrica.com/promo/5862/0p454-FGHIJKLMNO/ref/1340608

[@JasonPickens-vy7sb]

Do I download and edit like you so I do not break copyright? As long I add and edit will I be ok?

[@MakingwithMarilyn]

These items came from Creative Fabrica and include a commercial license. You can use the designs on physical goods within the license.

[@JosephCalkins-xl8qf]

I wanna see pt 2

[@MakingwithMarilyn]

Here is a link to it. Thanks so much!!! kzbin.info/www/bejne/rHjMioSDlNSlabM

[@doraholden1730]

Where are you downloading images from

[@MakingwithMarilyn]

I download most images from Creative Fabrica. You can get a 30 day free trial membership if you are interested in trying it. www.creativefabrica.com/promo/5862/0p454-FGHIJKLMNO/ref/1340608
