Thursday Tutorials - Cricut Iron-On Vinyl


Hello all, JoNeita from Create with JoNeita here with this weeks Thursday Tutorial.  I hope everyone has had a great time learning all about using vinyl.  Remember there is still time to enter a project, and that if we reach 100 entries, then our wonderful sponsor, CricutVinylSupplies.com will be giving away a Cricut Expression to one lucky winner. 

I have been wanting to try the Cricut Iron-on Vinyl, but was a bit uncertain about it.  I started looking online, and to my surprise there are not many videos about this product, but I did find a great one, which explains the process.  This video is from the Smith Simple Crafts You Tube page.



The main things that I learned, is that you have to flip horizontal your images, especially text, when using Iron-on vinyl.  The second is that the Iron-on vinyl comes with the transfer sheet already on, and that the shinny side (the transfer sheet) should be placed down on your Cricut mat. 

I hope this helps you to make a great project.  Don't forget to enter a vinyl project in this weeks challenge so you will be entered to win a Cricut Expression!!!

Thursday Tutorial - Cutting Vinyl with your Cricut


Hello everyone, JoNeita from Create with JoNeita here with this weeks Thursday Tutorial.  I hope that you are looking forward to our FCCB Vinyl University and that you are ready to learn something new and having fun trying things out. 
 


Our fantabulous sponsor for next weeks FCCB Vinyl University, CricketVinylSupplies.com , has a few really great how to videos, showing how to cut vinyl.  I found that the video was really helpful, the first time I decided to create a vinyl project.  This video is a bit long (8 minutes), but it shows everything from how to get started, settings for your Cricut, how to "weed" your cut, and how to use transfer tape.

To view the videos, click here!!!
(Sorry, I couldn't figure out how to post the video)

Don't forget that is we reach 100 entries, our sponsor will be giving away a Cricut Expression machine.
