Kim, when you said "fussy cutting," all the years of quilting came back to me. Because I couldn't find my cloudy template plastic, I thoroughly washed a clear lid from a take-out restaurant. I cut out the plastic to fit the earring blank; used the clear plastic to center the design; and then traced around it on the sublimation paper. If you'd like a photo, I have one for you.
Hey Johanna! You only need to flip the image in Canva, and mirror image in Cricut Design Space. They are really the same thing soo you're only doing it once depending on what system you're using. Thanks so much for watching and great question! 💕
I don’t have a sublimation printer right now so I purchase my designs on Etsy but is there any way I can purchase smaller designs or bigger designs other than the 1.8?
Hey Shamika! I've used a pattern and printed out the image and then cut around it to get my design. And if you use a free service like Canva.com you can increase and decrease the size of a vector image. They even have tons of free ones. (The images marked with a crown are part of their paid program, but tons are free.) Thanks for crafting with me and best of luck with your projects! 💕
Hey Heather! I would bring my design into Cricut Design Space or into Canva and then resize it there. I believe I go over Canva in this video. I have another for Cricut Design Space if you use that software: ruclips.net/video/nbOTbdnJKks/видео.html Thanks so much for watching and happy crafting!! 💕
Hey Debra! To be safe I would protect the back with butcher or parchment paper and allow the tape to hold it in place. As for heat, I used 400 for these. Thanks so much for watching and happy crafting!! 💕
I use the teardrop earrings in this video and I walk you through the entire process. Did you have a specific question that I didn't cover? Thanks so much for watching! 💕
I go over design in the video, but my best advice is to measure your earring, go into Canva, use the CIRCLE shape and resize it to the size of your earring. Then move your pattern or design onto that circle and size it down until it looks how you would like it to. Finally delete the circle and print. I hope that's clear. Best! 💕
Hey Andrea! In the video I show you how I got a few from Canva (there are free and paid) and how to upload others. There are tons of pretty ones. Thanks for watching and happy crafting!! 😊
Hey Candi! Yes, you can design and print images from Canva. Here's a quick video I made showing you how. ruclips.net/video/ZvvPu9Tfd58/видео.html Thanks so much for watching and happy crafting! 💕😊
Hey Tiffany! Earrings are tough because they are so very small. Have you considered preparing your design and then taping them flat to another sheet of paper to secure them from moving/shifting? Or, if you're selling them and you need them to be perfect I might look into shrink paper and a heat gun to secure the design before pressing. Not sure if that would work, but it's a thought. Hope your next batch are perfect! 💕
We bought the small teardrop wooden earrings off of Amazon, used A-Sub sublimation paper (125G) they recommended when you buy the earrings, but we still are not getting them to work. Our earrings turn yellow and nothing sticks to it. Can someone help?
Hey Dawn! Did you remove the clear covering? If it's still on the earring the color won't stick to it and it will heat up and turn yellow. I hope you figure it out and can start making lots of fun earrings! Thanks so much for watching! 💕
@@dawnwhite2056 oh absolutely you must have a sublimation printer OR a ECO Tank printer converted to sublimation ink. Sorry. I didn't even think to ask about your printer. You'll love it once you're up and running. Happy crafting!
Hey Heather! I picked it up on Amazon and I've sent purchased a second one for my "strong" heat tape. 😊 You can find it here: amzn.to/3drhxAB Thanks so much for watching! 💕
Thanks so much for crafting with me and for the feedback. This video is a few years old, I hope I've gotten better. I've love for you to give a newer video a try. 🩷 Happy crafting!

That's an awesome idea! So creative! Did you love how your earrings turned out? I need to whip up some fall/Halloween ones next! 💕🍂🎃
@@KimByers They turned out as close to perfect as this method can get. The best part is how confident I felt even before I peeled off the paper.
thank you for sharing. i just received my first pack of earrings to try!
I hope they turn our beautifully! I'm thinking about making some Christmas ones soon myself. 🎄 Happy crafting! 💕
After you flip the uploaded image, do you still mirror when printing? Thanks for a very informative session,

Great training, I needed this
So glad it helped Arlene!! Happy crafting! 💕

I’m wanting to purchase some really cute designs on Etsy. How would I go about sizing the design to fit the earrings? I’m a newbie.
Hey Heather! I would bring my design into Cricut Design Space or into Canva and then resize it there. I believe I go over Canva in this video. I have another for Cricut Design Space if you use that software: ruclips.net/video/nbOTbdnJKks/видео.html Thanks so much for watching and happy crafting!! 💕
Watching now …thanks
Happy crafting! 💕
What temp and time setting would you use for these if you had a press with actual number temp settings?
Hi Felicia! I would use 400 degrees and 45 to 60 seconds. Thanks so much for watching and happy crafting! 💕😊
@@KimByers thank you
I saw someone say taping @ to the back caused peeling. Do you ever have an issue with this? Newbie.
Hey Debra! To be safe I would protect the back with butcher or parchment paper and allow the tape to hold it in place. As for heat, I used 400 for these. Thanks so much for watching and happy crafting!! 💕
Thanks. I have the tear drop template how can I use it..

What is the name of the site with the patterns?
Hey Kathy! I used Creative Fabrica and Canva for these projects. Thanks so much for crafting with me!
I’m so confused on how to size these.
I go over design in the video, but my best advice is to measure your earring, go into Canva, use the CIRCLE shape and resize it to the size of your earring. Then move your pattern or design onto that circle and size it down until it looks how you would like it to. Finally delete the circle and print. I hope that's clear. Best! 💕
Where did you get the patterns?

Did you print your images from canva?
Hey Candi! Yes, you can design and print images from Canva. Here's a quick video I made showing you how. ruclips.net/video/ZvvPu9Tfd58/видео.html Thanks so much for watching and happy crafting! 💕😊
What do you recommend for shifting? I heat tape them, however I am still struggling with the image shifting once i closed down the heat press on them.

@@KimByers yes I did. My husband thinks it is our printer so we ordered a sublimation ink printer.

Where did you get your tape dispenser? I love it! ❤️
Hey Heather! I picked it up on Amazon and I've sent purchased a second one for my "strong" heat tape. 😊 You can find it here: amzn.to/3drhxAB Thanks so much for watching! 💕
I definitely need to use Canva more. I’m still learning. Also I didn’t know we could use the mini press for this … fabulous
Canva is amazing! Even the free version 😁. And I use the EasyPress for all my sublimation 💕 Thanks for watching!
@@KimByers I meant easy press lol called it a mini … thanks
@@Texaschic79915 Oh you had it right! It's an EasyPress Mini. 🥰

Hey Theresa! I used the Canva app in this video. Thanks so much for watching and happy crafting! 💕
You are pretty good with the explanation unfortunately you jump from explanation to another idea and the idea gets lost…

Jesus is your way to heaven, he paid the price for your sins. Once you believe you are sealed and saved forever. Salvation is a free gift.
