Infusible Ink Mugs with the Cricut Mug Press - Layering, Full Wrap, and More

[@sylviadariolcolon1794]

Thank God I found you and this video. Yesterday I was watching one from someone "well known" and I was in tears cause I thought I was so dumb I couldn't understand or do anything right. God bless you and keep giving you wisdom so you can continue teaching others. Thank you so much 😊

Thank you so much!!! I am happy to help!

[@ohmycreations9771]

I’m not new to your channel but I just needed to say, you know exactly what my questions are and give INCREDIBLE detail in your projects and love love love all of the information you give

Awesome! Thank you!

I will be reviewing this view again. I really like how you show the errors as well as the correct way to work with the transfer sheets.

[@craftienannie2013]

[@lorrainecornwell6232]

You know I really like this and was very tempted to get one of these machines but it has highlighted to me how much waste is created particularly with these full wrap transfer sheets. I really think that it is about time that cricut spends some time developing ways to reduce all this waste, or at least make sure that what is left can be recycled. Can you imagine how much is created by just one person doing this. I think we need to care about the environment more. The results are great! I think your videos are really good and clear. The way we craft though really needs a rethink if we are going to protect the world we live.

[@AngieHolden]

I haven't found a solution with only a little waste unfortunately.

[@jillb7234]

Call Cricut about your worries! Angie is just teaching us! Don’t purchase one! Geez!

Angie, you have the best videos! So detailed and informative, I learn something new each and every time! Thank you!

[@iamjuliejames]

Thank you for posting this. I have wasted a few pieces of Infusible ink transfer sheets because of poor weeding (or maybe I just gave up). I must look into the contour feature. Small letters are the thorn in my side (a’s, o’s b’s, d’s, p’s and i’s - because I can never get the dot!) Maybe I’ll try again since I’ve watched your video. I’ll tap into some patience before I start, though.

[@olivia8979]

Very nice. So many options. To my eye, having some shapes along the border edges looks so much nicer than the straight lines. I haven't actually drawn with my cricut yet, and i have been meaning to. I can't remember if I have infusable ink markers though. This would be a good project to do that with. I like your friends mug. I am planning on doing a sisters mug. I am trying to find a cute sisters saying for one side and then put our names on the other side.

Thank you Angie that was so good to watch. My Mug Press is being delivered to the store tomorrow and I was going to return it straight away. I could not find a video where you can do other colours and not just the roll of infusible paper. I am wanting to design mugs for the family with coloured flowers and a house etc, also photographs maybe. So I think this means me drawing which I am no good at. Do you have any idea if I can do this please? If not I may just hand it back tomorrow for a refund. Maybe I am being too ambitious. Oh I only have a normal printer too and not sublimation one and cannot afford to buy one.

[@AngieHolden]

The only way you are going to do photographs is with a sublimation printer. The mugs I show here are a good representation of what you can do without a printer.

Hi Angie, New to the mug press and making mugs. I have learned so much about infusible ink for mugs. You explain every step so well. I am trying to make the Cat mug ,the project on design space. It has 3 colors and the instruction said to slice/set. In your 2 color mug you cut out the Purple Heart separate from the main pattern, and placed them inside the cutout space Can I use your technic for the Cat mug, it has 3 colors. Or do I have to slice/set. I don't know how to do the slice/set. I would appreciate your feedback . Thank you,

[@AngieHolden]

The method I used here is the slice and set. That is what Cricut calls it!

[@teriannwhisner1637]

I am new to cricut & can’t figure out how to put multiple templates on the canvas, like in the video at 5:27… I didn’t want the ripped edge after I designed my idea but had to delete everything ‘cuz I just couldn’t figure it out. I tried it pay attention how you did that but went to fast & couldn’t follow your curser. Thanks for all the great info. You are awesome.

Any help please. Thank you

So cute mugs

[@IraQNid]

Here is a challenge for you. Use the infusible ink pens with a silicone pad printer to see how well the inks adhere to oddly shaped surfaces and objects: eggs, ink pen barrels, golf balls, USB Flash Drives, key chain blanks, computer mice, bottles (drinkware, baby bottles, pill bottles, etc), coasters, plastic and metal boxes, name tags, headphones, ear phones/buds, and whatever else you can reproduce in line with the things you can have personalized from an online custom imprinted promotional goods web site or catalog. If you're not sure what pad printers are lookup the topic on KZbin. While there are specialized inkjet printers with UV curing that can mass produce custom printed 3D objects on purpose built jigs I was curious if you could reproduce those types of machines using only Cricut's infusible ink pens on a pad printer. I'm wondering how long it will be before Cricut makes a Crafter's version of the Pad Printer :)

Thank you Angie for this awesome tutorial. I want to get the mug press but I’m waiting a little. Just want to be sure it is something I will actually use before I spend the money to buy one. 😊.

The sheets of infusible ink do not need paper when pressing. That paper can be used if you are working with the pens though.
