I’ve been wondering if I should purchase Canva to design to add on with my Cricut Design Space. You explained every details that I struggle with. With this video, now I will add Canva & I’m very excited of what I can make. Thank you sooo much 😊
OMGosh….I feel I should have paid for this tutorial. It is an amazing tutorial. I finally got my sublimation printer out of the box and was on Cricut Design Space and stopped just in the nick of time…lol. Thank you so much Alex!!!!!!!
Thank You, So much for doing this video. It was so helpful. I have been frustrated trying to figure out how to design. Now I have new hope and excitement.
Great tutorial! My sublimation printer is coming tomorrow. YOU are the one I will be watching! I love the way you explain everything. It makes learning & retaining so much easier. I'm glad I finally stumbled on to your video. I will definitely be watching your next one. See you next time. God Bless.
Love your tutorial on sublimation but I do have a question on the text you put in (classy crafty and a bit sassy) do you not have to flip them in order for them to come out right on your project??
Thank You SOOOOOOOO much. I have been looking at how to make sublimation designs on canva and your video was first one that popped up.I can not wait to get making sublimation designs for my Etsy Shop.
Great video, but was hoping it would show how to sublimate with only Canva. I'm wondering if it doesn't look as nice using canvas only. If it's best to use other sites thats fine, but since I currently use Canva I didn't want to add anything else unless necessary . I have enough going on right now to make my head spin. However, thank goodness for RUclips University . Thanks for taking the time to do this.
You were great! I was very happy that you explain everything so clearly. I was lost when it came to Canva. Now I was able to save my project and print it out.😅
I actually watched your full video and feel confident now 😂 very helpful,a lot of the others I didn't watch til the end ..I will definitely be watching more of you..thanks
This was so valuable. Thank you. It looks like if you pay for Pro you can use the elements and fonts with your creations just like Creative Fabrica. The Free version you have to pay 1.00 for everything you create to sell. The paint pallet would have been cute if you placed it in place of the "a" in Crafty.
Awesome video! I made a design as I was watching. Canva is my go to but I discovered that you can’t flip your text on Canva…however, you can type your words and edit on page2, then save that page as a PNG file. Go back to your design on page1 and upload your text PNG. Then you can flip it☺️
I just want to say THANK YOU QUEEN! This is the most straightforward, helpful and informative video I have seen on creating sublimation 😊. Take a bow because YOU DID THAT!
I love your video. I didn’t know where to start with Canva. So many questions answered thank you so much. I do have one question , why can’t I flip letters? I was able to filp the image but not the letter or words . I have to do that so they come out the right way on the shirt.
I'm so glad it was helpful! The flip should be available for text as well as images. If not, I would leave the entire image normal, and then flip the whole thing in your printer settings or computer settings just before you print.
This was sooo helpful! I am not good with learning new/different programs. They intimidate me. But your video made it look so simple and helped me get started!!! ❤😊
I just made a sublimation T-shirt using the heat, resistant tape and where the tape was it left a yellowish color on the shirt! I’m not sure what I’m doing wrong. I am using the same tape you’re using and pressing it the same way, but it’s leaving that color on the shirt from the heat resistant tape.
I have heard that some people struggle with that, but I haven’t had that issue. I would experiment with different heat tape brands. I tend to like the blue heat tapes.
Thank you for the tutorial, very helpful. I still have a question....Do I have to be a member in order to resize the image? I resized and locked but does not save it. Still the original size and no the desire one. Thanks
Thank you for your info on Sublimation and HTV it Cleared up so much for me as I have a Heat Press but was deciding the rest and Sublimation is more what designing means to me again thank you
You can't sublimate white ink because your printer can't print white ink. So you just sublimate on a white shirt, and the shirt will show through the design and look white.
Hi Alex I just came a across your RUclips channel I’m having some issues I ordered a prep from Etsy for sublimation. I put it into Canva how do I get to to my sublimation printer? I hope you can help me out Thank you. Laura
I figured out the mirroring. I am really loving Canva..just have to learn how to use everything. When you have time, how would you do an offset with the text? thanks so much
I don't know that I've done it with text in Canva yet. With images, you can go to edit image > glow > Click the glow to adjust it > Turn the blur down to 0 and adjust how much of a "glow" you want around your image!
HI Alex, I just watched your tutorial , im a beginner and would like to know how to put prints, pics in sticker form on a cup whether than having a white or black background
You’ll want to mirror the design after you download it since you can’t flip words in Canva! You can do this in an image editor like paint, or even in your print settings.
Love this!! I have a question about wanting to sell the designs I intend to make. I may word this wrong bc I’m still learning. If I wanted to make designs, sell them and be able to send the designs as a PNG, SVG, etc. how do I make the design to where it’s “cut” once someone downloads it. Like if they wanted to take one shape out or so? Idk if I’m asking this correctly so forgive me 😩
I think what you mean is having multiple layers in your design. Make sure all your shapes are separate, but other than that I’m not sure how to do that! I’m sorry!
I love your videos! Thank you for your time and love you put into your creations and tutorials as well as the positive energy you put out there. I don't know if this is appropriate to ask but I'm going to ask anyway... I have 4 Cricut machines. I don't have a website and have never made money using them. I just make things (and buy things apparently) however I recently got into sublimation and have two heat presses and two sublimation machines haha.. didn't know which to buy so I bought the two that had best reviews. I DO want to make money at some point with them but I mainly just play around and donate to schools and such. ANYWAY.. question.. my Cricut yearly fee is coming up in a few weeks. Do we really need to pay that or can we still use the machines without the Cricut subscription?
This is a very informational tutorial! Thank you so much for all the info! I do have a question tho. I downloaded the canva pro free trial but I cannot get the download button at the top no matter what I do. Is there something else I need to download so I can print?
Hello Alex! Do you have a tutorial on using a photo of like my dog, for example, adding text, like his name, and using a colorful sublimation background for a mug??
Hello! I was reviewing your Amazon store for sublimination printers and the one you have in your store tagged sold out. Any others you would suggest? Thank you
What a great tutorial! Thank you. My only thought was about the white lettering...I've heard the sublimation inks don't print white? But that it just ends up being negative space.
Hi there just got the background package from design bundles, but can't d/l it. Where is it supposed to go after downloading it? Do you have to be in canva to use them? Thanks ahead of time for your help.
Can you mirror your image in canva!? I'll be designing for cup tumblers! Also can I upload my own drawings I have done and editt them in canva? Or design special picutres like animals or anything like that
You can mirror your image, but not your text in Canva. You can modify your own designs if they are uploaded as separate layers. If they are all uploaded together then I don’t think you would be able to modify them.
Hi thanks for the tutoring. When you say to make sure you have a license if your using it to sell, what do you mean. Can I make a design on canva to sell?
You'll need to read Canva's license agreement to know if the designs you are creating are able to sell. Especially if you're using graphics, fonts, and other elements from Canva (that weren't created by you), you need to make sure you know if you have permission to make money off the final design.
Love your video and learned a lot! Unfortunately when I try to make a custom size it won’t let me enter in my own. It tells me “enter a valid value.” It doesn’t allow me to put decimals, it wants whole numbers only.
When you save as a PDF Print, does it make the background transparent? I noticed it doesn't have the option to click the box for that like it does if you save as a PNG. Thanks!
You know, I'm actually not sure! But if the background is white it will be "transparent" since printers don't have white ink (unless using a white toner printer).
If you print with white writing like you had in the video does the white show up as white on a colored tshirt? If so does that mean I need to use my cricut or scissors to cut around the edge so it doesn’t have white around the edge?
Regular printers don't have white ink, so you can't print anything white. White areas will just show the shirt fabric through the design. White won't transfer to the shirt, so no need to trim the design.
I’m a newbie. I noticed you didn’t mirror your image. Is there a reason why? I thought I learned to always mirror for sublimation. Just making sure I haven’t missed anything. Thank you.
You gave all the information but you left out “transparency”. Being your sub printer doesn’t print white, do you have to do anything special before downloading to be sure the white is transparent? That’s where I’m lost.
Do you have to have a heat press for sublimation transfer? I have been successful with the printing but when I go to iron it on I fail. I am using the cricut iron. Help
hi Alex - I have a question. I have been on the canva, playing around and I can't figure out how to mirror the text so that when you sublimate, the text comes out correctly. Thank you for your help.
You can do it in Canva, but you have to select each element and select Flip > Horizontal. So it can be a pain if you have a lot of layers! It's honestly easier to download the design and flip it when you actually get to print. I show you how to flip it in this video if you want to see how it's done in Canva: ruclips.net/video/1-9M6xdVXNs/видео.html It should be around 11:00 in this video!
I don't know if anyone has asked! I am new to Sublimation and want to know if you can just upload a PNG and print it. I see a lot of videos about doing backgrounds, not many to just use the picture you have.
You can use backgrounds in Canva if you find one! I just liked this one. Keep in mind that you can’t print white for sublimation, so anything white won’t print any ink on the actual print. So if you want to use white (like my font), there has to be color around it so it can be visible.
Love this tutorial ❤️ and thanks for being so detailed. I do have one question, seeing that you had to design the t-shirt sub design, how much would you sell this for?

Hello does this tutorial work for sublimation tumblers as well?
Designing in Canva can be used for any sublimation project!
This is super helpful. I'm just now dipping my toes in sublimation and the design process is intimidating.
That’s what I have heard from several crafters, so you are not alone! ☺️
Thanks for the tutorial. Great info.
I just made a sublimation T-shirt using the heat, resistant tape and where the tape was it left a yellowish color on the shirt! I’m not sure what I’m doing wrong. I am using the same tape you’re using and pressing it the same way, but it’s leaving that color on the shirt from the heat resistant

Thank you. The best video on Canva I have seen.
Wow, thanks! ☺️

Fantastic Tutorial! Very informative and great step by step
Thank you for the tutorial, very helpful. I still have a question....Do I have to be a member in order to resize the image? I resized and locked but does not save it. Still the original size and no the desire one. Thanks
I don’t think having Canva Pro has any effect on resizing the image. Im not sure why you had that issue!

Your videos are awesome!!😊
The size that you did on this video for what size of shirt could it that be used on or how can I make my design bigger like for 13x19
You would have to have a printer that could print 13x19 to make a design that size.
I have been playing around in canva for a little bit and you definitely taught me some things thank you so much Alex
You’re so welcome! So glad I could help!
thanks so much very enjoyable video. Just wondering how I can sublimate the WHITE as per your design I just watched.
You can't sublimate white ink because your printer can't print white ink. So you just sublimate on a white shirt, and the shirt will show through the design and look white.

TY DIY ALEX! This is something I heard about but first time seeing how it works...will have to rewatch to make sure I got it! 😉🤗💕❤❤
You’re so welcome! I hope seeing the process in real time was helpful!
Such a great tutorial, thanks!!! How do I mirror on Canva? Or do I mirror once it’s a PDF? TIA
You can do it either way! Text can’t be flipped in Canva, so it’s probably simpler to do it after you export it!
Very detailed and informative video, Thank you ❤
Loved this video. Can’t wait to watch more of your info.
I will definitely have more Canva tutorials!
If you put that on a shirt, etc, how do we mirror the wording? Great video! Very informative.

I have never seen any one as beautiful as you dearangel
loved your video! Do you not have to reverse the words before printing it out?
You do, but you can’t flip text in Canva. So you do it after you download your design.
Gotcha. Thank you I have one other question when sublimating how do I get rid of box around my image
Happy Holi 🙏in advance🤗🙏
All creators ❤
How do you flip the text in Canva for sublimation? When I flip it it only flips the image and not the text.
You can’t flip text in Canva as far as I know. So that’s why I export the image as-is and flip in my printer settings.
Click Mirror option when / before printing in the printing settings
Love this!! I have a question about wanting to sell the designs I intend to make. I may word this wrong bc I’m still learning.

Do you cut around where put the frame or just sublimation right onto shirt as it's printed?
I don't cut it out. I just press the whole paper.
I love the apricots font too
This was the best tutorial, but I have a question... how do you flip the image and writing to print for sublimation?
So I found out you can’t flip the writing in Canva, you have to use your print settings to do that instead ☺️
Great thank you!
Alex do you have Design Space Access? (Pay). Do you think it worth it?
Yes I do! I like to use images and projects in Design Space, and if you like to use those images too, then I think it’s worth it.

Hello Alex! Do you have a tutorial on using a photo of like my dog, for example, adding text, like his name, and using a colorful sublimation background for a mug??
I don’t have an exact tutorial for that design, but if you watch this video it shows you how to create designs with all of those. ☺️
When you chose the color for the scissors and paintbrush, you chose custom colors. Where did those come from? Are those included with Pro?
The custom colors are my brand colors that I’ve setup in Canva
Hello! I was reviewing your Amazon store for sublimination printers and the one you have in your store tagged sold out. Any others you would suggest? Thank you
Any Epson Ecotank model will do! 143vinyl has some in stock I believe, and you can use my code ALEX5 to save an extra 5%!
What a great tutorial! Thank you. My only thought was about the white lettering...I've heard the sublimation inks don't print white? But that it just ends up being negative space.
No printer prints white ink unless it is a white toner printer. So white spaces are always negative space. ☺️
THANK YOU FOR THIS VIDEO. IT HELP ME.
You're welcome! -Lindsay
If I purchase a design from someone, am I able to change the colors on that design? THANKS!!
It depends on the file type that's uploaded to Canva!
Hi there just got the background package from design bundles, but can't d/l it. Where is it supposed to go after downloading it? Do you have to be in canva to use them? Thanks ahead of time for your help.
Where it saves depends on your computer, but it’s often a folder called “downloads”. You can contact Design Bundles if you need more support!
So helpful!! I really enjoyed it! I would like to see more like this 🤗🤗
I'm so glad! More to come! - Lindsay
Thank you, sister.
Can you mirror your image in canva!? I'll be designing for cup tumblers! Also can I upload my own drawings I have done and editt them in canva? Or design special picutres like animals or anything like that
You can mirror your image, but not your text in Canva. You can modify your own designs if they are uploaded as separate layers. If they are all uploaded together then I don’t think you would be able to modify them.

Have you adjusted the units so it’s in inches before you start typing?
awesome video
Can I do this on my iPhone? I have a iPhone 13 Pro Max. Or do I need a laptop?
I think you can use your phone with the Canva app!
When you save as a PDF Print, does it make the background transparent? I noticed it doesn't have the option to click the box for that like it does if you save as a PNG. Thanks!
You know, I'm actually not sure! But if the background is white it will be "transparent" since printers don't have white ink (unless using a white toner printer).
Great video, thank you
So, you don't have to print the design backwards for this sublimation before applying to t-shirt?
You do, but you can’t flip text in Canva. So you’ll have to flip it in your printer settings, or just using Paint on your computer.
Great video, would love to see the printing process
Thanks!! You can check out my sublimation crafts playlist to see printing in almost all of those videos!
If you print with white writing like you had in the video does the white show up as white on a colored tshirt? If so does that mean I need to use my cricut or scissors to cut around the edge so it doesn’t have white around the edge?
Regular printers don't have white ink, so you can't print anything white. White areas will just show the shirt fabric through the design. White won't transfer to the shirt, so no need to trim the design.
Ones I download do I have to make the background transparent? Or the white part won’t sublimated?
You can remove the background when you export it, but also none of the white will sublimate.
Do you have to “mirror” the lettering so that it won’t press on to the shirt backwards?? Or do you just print normally?
Yes, the ink side goes down on the shirt so all text and images must be mirrored.

You gave all the information but you left out “transparency”. Being your sub printer doesn’t print white, do you have to do anything special before downloading to be sure the white is transparent? That’s where I’m lost.
Since your printer can’t print white, it doesn’t matter if there’s white in the print. It physically can’t print so that makes it transparent.
Can you show this design printed?
Do you have to have a heat press for sublimation transfer? I have been successful with the printing but when I go to iron it on I fail. I am using the cricut iron. Help
The Easy Press 2 gets hot enough to sublimate, but a regular heat press does make it easier.

So can you use canva for sublimation prints to put on shirts to sell?
You need to read Canva's licensing agreement to find that information. It also depends on what type of Canva account you have.
Where did you get your organization system behind you in the videos
IKEA! They are the Kallax cubes and Alex drawers
@@DIYAlex thank you
What temperature and time do you iron these on with?
If you print this on a sublimation printer you can’t use an iron to apply it.
Can a sublimation be printed onto printable vinyl for use on a boat?
I don’t recommend it.
@@DIYAlex can you elaborate?
Okay you lost me at the part where your getting a sublimation background, can you used the Canva background or not?
You can use backgrounds in Canva if you find one! I just liked this one. Keep in mind that you can’t print white for sublimation, so anything white won’t print any ink on the actual print. So if you want to use white (like my font), there has to be color around it so it can be visible.
Hi Alex ☺️, I followed along , but when it came time to download , There was not a download button, I’m on a Hp laptop .
You will find the download button under "share" in the upper right hand corner of the project.
Love this tutorial ❤️ and thanks for being so detailed. I do have one question, seeing that you had to design the t-shirt sub design, how much would you sell this for?
You’re so welcome! Oh gosh, good question! I would probably sell it for around $5 if I was selling it on Etsy.
nice very informative ❤
I’m so glad you thought so! ☺️
