Thank you for letting me know I can take my image to the library and print it on the transfer paper! I have looked for that answer for three days, and have asked at hobby stores, no one had the answer! I did a shirt twenty years ago and I didn't have a computer, so I must have used a printer to copy the image . It turned out great. Again thank you!

[@thebademartdesigns]

You’re very welcome, you just need to ask in the library some of them will let you print on your own paper some would not it depends on the policy of the library. Any injet printer would do the job nothing fancy👍🏽

So glad I found your video! You made is so easy to understand. Thank you. I do have 2 questions tho. When you print do you let the ink dry and for how long? Also, what setting do you put your cricut or cutting machine. I have a cricut so I'm hoping you do as well. I'm finding that when I do print and cut, my cricut shreds some areas. Not sure what I'm doing wrong. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Excellent video. Couldn’t be more clearer ! I have learnt a lot! Just purchased the whole kit and can’t wait to try it! Please do you need sublimation inks in the printer? Have you tried to wash it even with cold water? Where are you from? More power to you!

[@thebademartdesigns]

Thank you for your comment, I’m in Ireland and very Irish😅😅I would be sincere with you, this kind of transfers are usually not suitable for everyday where as the will eventually crack but I use they for promotional or birthday T-shirt’s. This is not a sublimation paper it’s for injet but the light transfer works well with sublimation. I wash with my everyday laundry but no fabric softener as that will crack the transfer.

Any trick to peel the paper? I'm really struggling to make it consistently. Also, it's ok if I use dark paper even on white shirts as long as I cut it? Thank you.

[@thebademartdesigns]

Try peeling the paper from one corner, it’s one of the flaws of transfer papers🥲. Yes you can use dark on white T-shirt. I have a video on how to choose dark or light transfer paper for your project

[@arielbailey6182]

How do you know which side of the transfer paper to lay on top of the picture/design? And did you put the transfer paper in your printer to print that way?

[@thebademartdesigns]

The transfer paper has a backing you only print on the front. And yes it goes straight into your printer like every other paper

[@michelleelizabeth6375]

Hi did you use two different silicone papers? One seems bigger than the one included in the transfer paper package.

[@thebademartdesigns]

Yes i did, one was A4 silicon paper which came with the transfer paper. The other one i used is just butcher paper

[@NammCat]

I did that on a cotton shirt but used a circuit hat press on 250° but it did not stick. Any advice? 🙏🏽

That’s not enough heat it should be 190 degree Celsius same as 375 degree Fahrenheit. So check which one you’re using. And make sure you lint roll your hat.

[@lynnenc]

How would I go about pressing an image that has text with it and maybe some other smaller pieces? Is there any way transfer tape can be used so all images could be included separate instead of like a square? I hope I'm making sense. I have been trying to find out how to do this forever. Thank you!

[@gollumsmeagul8266]

with text your best off cutting the text area from the image and the lay it to where you want it, this will reduce the outline from the transfur paper. or if you have it use the HTV but you would need to cut it on the program, citting text with knife it very hard i find...as for the smaller pieces that would depend on how small they are and you would have to leave them on the paper, trying to cut them would be a pain. hope this helps some :)

[@ianc3034]

I think you are looking for a cutter, search for a machine called Cricut, it will cut the design for you so you wont have to do it. The machine will cut the outline of your image or text

[@robertovega1184]

For the printer settings, what would you suggest? Or what’s the best program to print? It seems my black ink changed to yellow after a few days 🤔

[@thebademartdesigns]

That would depend on the printer you use, it’s not a one hat fits all

[@70angelkiss]

Is this inkjet transfer paper?

[@thebademartdesigns]

@70angelkiss yes

[@ZymixProductions]

So you only peel the back of the transfer paper only for the dark one? also the image doesn't have to be flipped or mirrored for the dark one?

[@thebademartdesigns]

Yes you are correct 👍🏽

[@ZymixProductions]

@@thebademartdesigns Thank you 👊😎👍

[@paulawusi1934]

Please I will like to use iron because I don't have the press machine, will the ironing be better and keep the image durable on the t shirt? And also can I use only the silicon paper and leave the other paper you mentioned?

[@thebademartdesigns]

Yes you can use the pressing iron just make sure you read the instructions in temperature for home iron. You can use just the silicon paper and another T-shirt or any cloth for added security you don’t want to mess the image.

[@paulawusi1934]

Another t-shirt on top of the design? Can the heat of the iron penetrate through? Please sorry to ask ooo, this is my first time on heat printing but am having a some work to do for some clients that's why I want to be much detailed.

[@thebademartdesigns]

It’s better to protect your image from too much heat or it Will destroy the image.

[@jilliej7]

Can u use a carrier sheet with this?

[@thebademartdesigns]

No it will stick to it and ruin your design

[@Rosegold33]

For the dark transfer papers, did you have to mirror it?

[@thebademartdesigns]

No it does not need to be mirrored

[@Nbarecords]

Did you wash it ? because after i done this process i stil get wrinkles in it ? do you have solution? i got a heat press maybe i need to put de degrees? higher iam trying to find out what te problem is and i wash it on cotton mode with cold water you got any idea? what it maybe is ?

[@thebademartdesigns]

Yes the white or light transfer seems to look cracked when washed but was perfect when dried, and I ironed it again with a sheet on it

[@samanthathirlwall9681]

Is that parchment paper your using on top?

I used the silicone paper that came with the pack and place parchment paper on top just to double protect my heatpress

[@karensantillan4527]

Can you layer this on top of regular htv?

thank you for your vidoe which is very helpful. I am using same paper you showed here but 1: when I printed the image the backing paper ( i used dark oen that has blue backing) came off on its own, it is not sticket at all adn 2: it won't print onto the t shirt! could you help? thanks

[@thebademartdesigns]

I’m not really sure what your question is but if you mean the dark transfer paper isn’t sticking do the following 1. Check if you’ve peeled the image off the paper carrier, the one on the back of it 2. Check your temperature make sure you’re applying enough heat and pressure. I hope this will help

Yes you can be it doesn’t last as long as inkjet because it is specifically made for injet printers. If you’re stuck and you need an emergency tshirt sublimation ink prints just as good and inject.
