[@playingtheback9]

I love his videos. They’re short, to the point and so informative.

[@MakersGonnaLearn]

Thats what we like to hear, thank you!

[@shannonericksen1291]

Yep! 99.9% of the others just yap yap yap. They need friends 🤣

[@catbrown8191]

Thank you for this help! Particularly, thank you for going at a nice pace, explaining what items you are using and showing exactly what to do on the app. I’m a craft-fanatic but very new to the Cricut world, so these detailed instructions are exactly what I’m looking for! Happy crafting! :-)

[@MakersGonnaLearn]

You are so welcome!

[@angelawilson3174]

You explain things so even this dummie can understand. Thank you for all your videos you’re a delight to watch.

[@MsDAWN777]

[@elizabethramsey2429]

It's just regular printer paper

Great video! Do infusible projects always show the dot where the marker first touches the paper? Thanks again!

[@KaliMahalo]

You might want to go to his facebook page and ask that question with a link to this video. I'm going to do that in my groups because that was the first thing I noticed when he showed the coaster! Like .. its great and the tutorial is awesome but .. NOT flawless LOL

[@roxannehayes6702]

Hello! Does it work well to use infusible ink markers on infusible ink sheets?

[@barbararead7490]

Are you using 32# laser gloss color print paper? Paper looks glossy.

[@Snoopygirl1446]

32# usually has a sheen to it.

[@esquivelverspoor]

Thanks, I was pushing the own and I didn't know I have to open first the adaptor. Thanks

[@MakersGonnaLearn]

Any time!

[@mimimim]

Finally now I know how to v use, after 1 year of having these! So excited, always love your content 💕!

[@MakersGonnaLearn]

Yay! Thank you!

[@Nehadesai86]

Does anyone have specifics on the type of laser paper you can use for these projects?

[@amandacole9723]

I don’t have an easy press. Can I use just a regular household iron for infusible ink?

[@MakersGonnaLearn]

You cannot. Here is a fun comparison video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/q6DIp6hve9BrrpI

[@themasterspiece965]

Hi amanda i used a black and decker iron normal iron no steam turn it all the way up wait 2 full minutes worked perfectly fine for me

Is there a way to do full color designs? Vs just the outline ?

[@catherinefickling8051]

Can I use parchment paper instead of butcher paper

[@meganaccordino9001]

Yes

[@shirleyotero1846]

So cute Thank you so much Tanner always so informational.

[@shaunebartoo2551]

I have freezer paper and parchment paper is either one of those the same as butcher paper? Or were they work?

[@lakotacamp8533]

could infusible ink markers be used with toner reactive foil? Like if I did exactly what you did with that coaster but then after that I put minq toner reactive foil over the coaster and heat pressed it, would it foil the paw print? If not, does cricut make toner pens compatible with maker?

[@aricawms8329]

love the video I'm super late but can you use a used piece of htv backing if you don't have the tape??

[@MakersGonnaLearn]

Sure!! Just make sure it's only on the edges, not over the design, like the tape would be :)

[@Aerialsteve10]

Is a Teflon sheet okay instead of butcher paper?

[@leannwilhelm4009]

Why does the copy paper look so shiny? Is there something you need to put over it before you use the markers?

[@marciaeck343]

Hi I have been reading a lot of the comments about you using the 32 lb. copy paper, and you say it does have a sheen to it, where can you pick it up at? the town that I live in doesn’t even have any kind of an Office Depot or Staples, can you pick it up at possibly the UPS store? Great job explaining everything

[@MakersGonnaLearn]

Hello! I think this is what we used: amzn.to/3l2tyL1

[@CraftyMomof12]

If someone wanted to make the pen fill in the item how would you do that

[@MakersGonnaLearn]

So, only Cricut has the technology to have fonts “fill in” with the Cricut. These are called Writing Fonts. There are no 3rd party (meaning non-Cricut brand) fonts that can do this. So, we use our fonts mainly for vinyl, Iron-On, and print then cut! :) We don’t use our Cricut to write often. You can fill in the words by hand if you'd like.

[@linnkelly3704]

Thank you for the teachinng❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️😇😇😇😇😇

[@armywife0330]

Can you reuse the butcher paper or do you need a fresh piece for each project?

[@MakersGonnaLearn]

You can reuse as long as there's no ink on them :)

[@cheryltaylor3158]

Any recommendations on which copy/ printer paper

[@GaylBradford-vm2we]

Do you need to use sublimation paper?

[@alohablondie]

On the Cricut instructions, they flip the coaster over where the part of the coaster that has the design is face down. You did it face up. Have you noticed a difference between the two?

[@MakersGonnaLearn]

Good Question! We've found no difference, but feel free to do it either way :)

[@nancygerbasio1166]

Can you set cricket to color in the object

[@GLADYS3182]

You have to use regular paper or sublimation paper ??

[@judithholland9592]

I keep trying these setup for the infusible markers on paper but it won't do all the lines. I did reseat the cricut infusible pen a couple times, still not drawing all the lines. I'll keep trying but very disappointed at the product. Thanks for the info. It helped a lot in trying to find the settings which can be frustrating every time I change materials. I may try putting 2 pages and taping them see if that will work. Wish me luck.

[@ladylucks910]

Overtime does the infusible ink wash out or get messed up if you put a cup that sweats on the coaster?

[@MakersGonnaLearn]

Not that we've ever noticed! But if you're worried about it, feel free to seal it with Minwax Polycrylic: amzn.to/2KzC588

[@ivelissetorres7805]

[@jessicamarsh9779]

So the fusible ink pens work with any paper? That’s CRAZY! I’m SO gonna try these out!!!!

[@MakersGonnaLearn]

Right?! So crazy!

[@monicab28]

I could not get the pens to make contact with the paper. I didn't hear a loud click like I do with the regular Cricut pens but I feel like if I push it in there any further, it will break the pen holder. Help!

[@mckeon1960]

Can you draw on acrylic rounds with infusable ink pens

[@amy5216]

Can it be filled in? I noticed the original image is a block colour, but you only went with an outline. Was there a reason for that? Would it bleed, or were you just being conservative!? Do the pens work as well if you draw on something directly, by hand? And also, do they work say on tumblers in the mug press? So many questions, ha! Thanks! 😅

Great video, very informative. If I were make an iron-on design for a shirt, what type of shirt material...polyester, cotton or a blend?

[@MakersGonnaLearn]

For Infusible Ink, at least use 65% polyester :) The more poly the better!

[@hollygleich5418]

I don’t understand. Is it regular paper or special paper that the pens draw on?

[@ivynightly-exonar8679]

Just a tip, when using the term something is "cheaper" it makes it sound like it doesn't have the quality of its name brand equal. You could always say it's "less expensive" or "cost efficient" makes the item sound equal in quality to the name brand.

[@MakersGonnaLearn]

Thanks for the tip!

[@ivynightly-exonar8679]

@@MakersGonnaLearn no proble. Just wanna say thanks for all your amazing videos. I find that even if I try to watch other you tubers die-cutting videos, I end up cutting it short in search of makers gonna learn. I love that your videos are not usually much more than 20 minutes and usually on one topic or craft at a time. Keep up the great work. And thanks for being here for me!!!

[@shannonericksen1291]

It’s a southern thing.

[@traceybartlam7737]

We would use the term cheaper in the UK if something costs less so it’s a perfectly acceptable term to show something costs less.

I've added these supplies to my Amazon cart (yes, heat tape and butcher paper too!), but you answered my "What can I draw these designs on" question. Good to know you can use copy paper!

infusible ink can only be used for some certain blanks and not shirts? 😦

Can you draw on a paper then put on a shirt

[@path_to_aesthetic]

Yes you can.

[@maddieb5787]

Do you mean copy paper as in like normal white paper you would put in a printer? Or do you mean those cricut blank transfers?

[@lexcoupe2100]

I noticed you placed coaster facing up but on the heat guide site it recommends face down and 240 seconds. I’m confused.

That is for the other round ceramic coasters

Can you do a item that it can fill in with the markers

[@lorijeff65]

Good morning, I was watching to learn more about the markers. My question is, if using regular printer paper, do you have to apply heat right away or can we store it and iron it on another day? also does this rule apply to the laser paper as well? thank you any help on this is appreciated. btw nice job explaining on how to use the markers

[@MakersGonnaLearn]

good question! I don't see why you'd need to transfer it immediately. The ink requires heat to transfer, so I don't think letting it sit for a few days would impact its ability to transfer. Always worth trying!

[@misterioso2735]

Can we use normal printer paper and hand draw anything? Or do we have to use a cricut machine?

[@MakersGonnaLearn]

Feel free to hand draw on regular paper with these infusible ink pens! :)

[@Scoomzzz]

"Just like so" lol love it! I can tell you were a teenager in the early 2000s like me. I'm assuming because I never hear people say that unless they were like I was. Educated guess lol.

I know you said you used copy/printer paper but that looks like it has a gloss finish/ photo finish? Will regular printer paper work?

[@Jennifer85987]

Hi there, thanks again for another perfect video and taking the time to do and share this. I do have a question for you, since you seem to be (almost) the only one around here who answers them : in Design Space, I can't add more than 4 materials to my favorites, when I first got my Maker 3 a year ago, it worked out fine, but for a few months now, it doesn't work anymore. And the weird thing is the message I get, because on top of my screen, there is some sort of red banner that says : ... there was a problem removing your favorite material ... ???? I'm trying to add, not to remove any. I tried to delete all the materials in my list, to be able to start over again, but after 4 items, it just doesn't let me add any more. Tried to reach the Customer Service, which is very very difficult (I'm in Germany, so I tried the one over here), and their CHAT is BS, because it's a computer generated chat, so forget that. Thanks for dropping me a line if you have a solution. Have a good Day. Dany
