Diamond Plate Tumbler Tutorial

[@tracyclark465]

Not only is this an awesome cup this video is a excellent exercise is the basics that i tend to skip when rushing !

[@TD-lq1kt]

Looks great. Detailed tutorial! Thanks for sharing. For anyone who wants to do a diamond plate tumbler that doesn't have a cutting machine, 651vinyl carries a diamond plate vinyl from Starcraft that works great as a vinyl wrap that you can use under epoxy too.

Your an ANGEL 👍🏾🥰.. TFS🤗

[@lindseyjacobs8305]

Ok, I thought I had watched all of your tutorials. Several more than once. How did I miss this?? This is sooooooo awesome!! My dad and hubby are getting these for Father’s Day.

[@julieveitia2979]

Wow, I haven’t seen another video that explains the process as well as you. THANK YOU! I can’t wait to try this. Subscribed!

[@cajuncoco]

You're the best!! I know I've said it before but it can't be understated. You don't miss any details. I love it!!!

[@karlaesquivel86]

I've tried this and the paint pulled and left adhesive on the cup w the 631 Oracle but it's all good bc I just used an exacto knife to trace around each diamond and then pulled them up and to get the adhesive off I hard to spray the cup with WD-40 and it wiped off all the adhesive! Then I washed with soap and water. Done!

[@gabrielaold5292]

Thank you so much! Got my Cricut just yesterday so your explanation was priceless!

[@vonellevanzant237]

Great, thorough tutorial! Thank you so much!!

[@dianarose251]

Thank you for the detailed instructions from a beginner.

[@naturalcurls4life576]

Simple design, but really nice and elegant looking!

[@jodyparkman8494]

I am new to this and I just want to tell you I really APPRECIATE the way your tutorial is so thorough (sp) very nicely taught and I love the way you walk us the the Cricut Explore Air 2 that’s what I just bought and I’m learning through your tutorials! Thank you new subscriber!

[@marias5248]

You are amazing. Enjoyed your video and how you presented the process. Thanks!

[@MissKissKreations]

Thank you so much. I’m glad I can help!

[@aenolam]

I learned so much from this video….thanks so much!

[@larkenad101]

I might try spray painting it and then using a metalic stainless steal vinyl on top so you dont have to peel it. i think you can achieve the same look without the paint peeling. But this also works if you don't have that vinyl available. It looks great. I think I'll do one for my husband. Thank you so much for the idea

[@MissKissKreations]

Great idea!

[@charissegibbs7892]

This video was awesome! Thank You

[@streetglidegirl8879]

You did an AWESOME JOB at explaining every single thing. Especially with the design cutting, vinyl size-631. Everything. THANK YOU.

[@rondabaker8273]

Best tutorial ever!

[@lizdibenedetto4936]

It came out so good!!!!

[@isabella-lp3nw]

I made this design last year and they were a big hit with every man

[@SunshineAndStorms81]

This was a really good tutorial. I don't understand how it got thumbs down. Also, I add a dot of hot glue to my 631 to help me find my vinyl and pull it up. I pull my vinyl up from the middle and not the edge.

[@MissKissKreations]

Thank you!

Great tutorial!

[@sandybourassa2619]

[@DecalRanch]

I was in Menards the other day looking at that paint thinking I wonder what it really would look like on a cup. lol Thanks!

[@MissKissKreations]

Haha! No problem!

[@pattiroche290]

Love this so much!!

[@cuttastarminis6305]

Great tutorial. Could you do a tutorial that shows how to fix bubbles and imperfections after the 1st coat of epoxy? I’m about ready to give up on making cups because I just can’t get a finish without bubbles even with a torch. Maybe I’m just being to critical but I see all these cups that look perfect.

[@max.themoose]

It could be your epoxy. What kind do you use? I have found that putting my epoxy on close to the end of its working time I get way less bubbles or imperfections.

[@cuttastarminis6305]

I used Amazing Clear first and didn’t have a problem but the smell even with a respirator was awe full. Then tried FX and KS resin. Both had major micro bubbles that wouldn’t even pop with a torch.

[@max.themoose]

@@cuttastarminis6305 amazing clear has the worst smell ever!!! I use FX and had a really hard time with it but spent too much money not to use it lol. I got rid of my issues by mixing slowly for 3 minutes, pouring into a new cup and then mixing for another 3 min. I then wait for it to reach 90 degrees. I just got a little temp reader from harbor freight for 10ish. I also keep my room at 75 which kinda sucks but oh well lol. I rarely have issues with it now. It's a process but worth it! The finish on fx is sooooo pretty.

[@nikkismith3685]

Let the girl that wrecks everything tell ya, lol. Use a heat gun, embossing gun or high heat low output hair dryer as soon as you are done. Pops all the bubbles!

[@bridgettwonder5386]

What a fabulous, detailed tutorial. Thank you so much. I wonder if you could use the “background” vinyl as a stencil, placing it on and then spray painting? Have you tried something like that?

[@angelmom916]

Bridgett Wonder yes you can...It would just have a ss background and the painted diamonds...

[@lyndsey7189]

Love it!

[@fatimahuerta7525]

Love love love your tutorials. I googled diamond plate svg, picked one, uploaded to DS and it needs a lot of cleaning. I always thought if it was an svg, I could upload and cut. Did you have to clean up yours or did you find a perfect one? If you did, can you please share the name of the site from whom you uploaded from? Thank you ❤️

[@akarph]

Hello! I need to make two tumblers for 2 little boys. The base coat needs to be red and the other blue. Will this work? If so how would I do this? Thank you!

[@yvettesaldana570]

This is great

[@ashleyrenee8916]

Hi! How did you remove the little fuzzies that come out when you proceed to save as a cut image? For some reason I just can't get my diamond shaped perfect..

[@nancydraper5825]

What kind of decal saying would you put in this design? I just did it but can’t think of a saying. Love your videos.

[@jessicaworden1888]

If I were to print this svg file onto clear waterslide paper would the "cut outs" be clear?

[@diamondperidot]

Nice work. How about instead of throwing the background sheet away you put it on a cup and spray paint or hydro dip a cup with it.

[@shellyvonschtupp8618]

Great video! What is your preferred transfer tape? (I hate the cricut transfer tape.)

[@tamikka09]

Very nice

[@MissKissKreations]

Ty!

[@katietorres2993]

Where did you get your transfer tape?

[@HeavenLeeMadeOnEtsy]

what if you did this in reverse? Paint the tumbler then put metallic silver vinyl in the Diamond plate pattern and then seal with the resin?

[@MissKissKreations]

Great idea!

[@KeilaBrazis]

So beautiful!!! What decal did you add in the end? A name or a design?

[@MissKissKreations]

I added a name to this one!

[@mrscratcliff]

Do you have a picture of this complete with the decal?

[@rodrmaria85]

How do you fix the scratches from pull off the vinyl

[@MissKissKreations]

Spray the dish paint on a paper towel then dab it in the areas where the scratches are. You can also spray the paint into a cup. Dip a qtip in a cup then dab the areas with the qtip

[@TT-ex6wr]

Can we use 70% alcohol or something else? Can’t find 91% alcohol anywhere

[@jessiereynolds5120]

In another video she said you can use acetone also.

[@SunshineAndStorms81]

I have used 70% and it was just as useful. Stronger is better though.

[@gammamghee2212]

Use the vinyl that you weeded out as a stencil. Don't waste anything. :)

[@debrajol3585]

I was thinking the same thing. I put them onto a Avery label sheet backing or contact paper backing etc and save them.. they always get used for something on another project later - especially when I’m stuck for an idea - I go browse thru those vinyls and then an idea will just pop up and I’ll use them! We paid good money for it 💰 might as well be used!!

[@plantdaddylady]

Is there a template for a tumbler sleeve that's not a square? It should be more like a tapered quadrilateral

[@RDXLADYX]

Have you ever tried using the excess vinyl what you removed, to wrap the tumbler?

[@MissKissKreations]

Yes, you can do that! Great way not to waste vinyl! :)

[@brendaholloway2922]

I just started doing this .When i get through it looks like I got alot on my tumbler.It looks thick .What am i doing wrong.

[@shavonwalker2550]

I know this is an old video, but when I tried to do this, the temp vinyl left adhesive behind. How do I get it off without destroying the paint job?

[@MissKissKreations]

You can use soap and water with a q tip and rub it off. Or windex

[@charlottedavis9769]

Is it grey or rose gold? Looks rose when expoxying.

[@dianepage2735]

Hi, I followed your tutorial and let the cup set over night. But when I went to remove the diamonds it pulled some of the paint off. I tried to do it exactly how you did your removal any other tricks or tips I should know that would be helpful so o don’t loose my diamond shape ???

[@SunshineAndStorms81]

I'm sure you've figured this out by now considering how long ago you asked this but you have to pull the 631 up very slowly. If I pull up any of my paint I get a small paint brush and spray some of the paint in a metal bowl and very carefully try to add the paint back where it came off.

[@carriebebee9111]

I need to ask a question about the glittered tumblers please? What is making the glittered bleed on my white? What am I doing wrong? Thank you.

[@MissKissKreations]

I’m sorry, I’m not too sure if I understand the question, please reach out to me on my Facebook page and maybe send over some photos so I can have a better understanding.

[@nikkismith3685]

Prolly cheap dyed glitter. Rule of thumb $5 per color or buy it from craft store, not kids glitter. Also glitter made from polyester is amazing

[@carriebebee9111]

I am so sorry for this mistake. I was watching your tutorial and hit the wrong button. This tumblers I have made have not faded. Please forgive me. I enjoy your on line tutorials, and have follow your instructions and they all have came out beautifully. My favorite was your we the people.

[@dsadasey]

Looks like turn gold after or is it lighting?

[@MissKissKreations]

That is the lighting 😊

[@karenbridge9191]

what decal did you put on ??

[@MissKissKreations]

My dads last name :) up and down

[@vickiwhite603]

How do you know if vinyl is permanent or none? How do I know if I use permanent or non percent? I thought there was only heat vinyl, like for shirts or the other for cups.

[@MissKissKreations]

When purchasing, the vinyl will state "Permanent" or "Temporary".

[@paigeupchurch7306]

651 or “outdoor” is permanent 631 or “indoor” is removable

[@Woppaho]

You can buy stencil vinyl

[@sharifair6947]

Can you design a minion video

[@lorihoyle2289]

You didn't sand the tumbler first, correct?

[@MissKissKreations]

Sand it with 180 sanding block. Then wipe down with 91% alcohol. I will say sanding is optional. I have had tumblers last for over two years without sanding them! 😊

[@doloresmartinez2434]

You have to spray that hammered spray paint a certain way to get the hammered look. Yours looks to flat and shiny.

[@MissKissKreations]

All I did was spray Very little at a time about 10 to 12 inches away from the tumbler.

[@lovely31bluprint]

You thought me some new.
