Love the video! Seems to me that it would be easier to just use high gloss photo paper and cut it out on the Silhouette then glue it down. no need to mirror the image or use the heat press and laminate.
Thank u! And u are correct, that is the easiest way, and the way I do now, was playing with laminate sheets a lot when I made this, lol, but I am going to do an update for this as I’ve had a few people bring that up recently!! Thanks for watching and the input, we appreciate it🙏
I agree!! Sometimes my print and cut is on point , other times I can’t figure it out, so I always look for alternate ways of doing things, lol, and No problem, thank you for watching!!
@@kimmangham8070 same here, very few times have I got it to cut perfect, and when I do I can never replicate it, lol, I keep saying I’m gonna look up videos of that and learn so maybe that would be a good topic for a video🤔
That’s pretty much what I figured, and I would of used had I not been out, I have since reordered and also picked up a spray adhesive just in case, Loctite works good too, thank you for sharing!!
Great video! I was wondering whether this would work with the same adhesive material that you used to make the tumbler? Seems like that would make it lie flat and reduce the peeling up issue...Just a though
Thank you again!! Yes, definitely would work with the vinyl and laminate as well, I’ve seen people also use photo paper and just glue it in, the problem with the card stock was the heated laminate caused it to want to curl quite a bit. I have made them several different ways, I should do videos of the multiple ways I do them, but too many videos I want to make and too little time, lol!! But yes the vinyl and laminate works well with this, and the vinyl def stays put!
Actually was pretty easy and didn’t take too long, definitely be more prepared then I was to adhere it down, good double sided tape or a little glue, but they come out good, my dumb butt broke the glass right after making the video 🤦🏻♂️
You are great! I've tried clocks before and it took forever to get the size right. I tried that drag and drop. You're a genius! I haven't tried the laminate part yet but I will today. Thanks again for your simplistic explanations.
Hi, another awesome video. In the beginning after you added the laminate layer I noticed you were having difficulty peeling off the paper backing. If you used that gold colored teflon mat that you have as your base rather than the paper would that eliminate the peeling issue? Not sure if that would work or not, but it's just a thought. Thx for sharing your know how with us. I appreciate it.
Yes, the teflon sheet does work and is the best thing to put above and below your sublimation on paper so it won't stick. Normally you use butcher paper for sublimation but this technique is an exception to that rule.
Yes, sublimated the laminate, although this wall clock process it’s much easier to either use sticker, printable vinyl or photo paper would be my recommendation, at the time though I was trying a lot of different items with laminate sheets lol
So the picture was sublimated to the laminate, and then laminate applied to cardstock picture/laminate side up, however I have found at this point buying a $10 pack of photo paper and using that on these works much better and easier
I have not personally done ceramic tiles, but I would assume it has to do with time and temp, try 385 for 20 seconds to start, if your using thermal laminate that’s where I’d start
I have templates for the several dollar tree cups on my Etsy, I haven’t done one for the mugs, but I will, right now I don’t know of anywhere else off hand, if u google u may find one, I will try to do one soon and add to my store… I do have the 2 for &1 travel coffee cups that I did a video about sublimating on in the store, but not actual ceramic coffee mug
I believe it is in the setting icon along the right side. I will have to look when I get a chance, had surgery this week so might be a few more days, usually I’m quicker responding so I apologize for the delay.
Hey Tiffany, so if u go to page setup, and then click the middle tab, highlight the tick box that says enable smart mapping, and that will turn it on, I also have snap to guides selected…. If u need to visually see it, look for my sublimation keychain video coming out, later this week and I show exactly where in that video
I have not tried this with Cricut maker, my wife has one, and all of the other things I’ve done u can do with Cricut, so I don’t see why this wouldn’t work. Cricut can pretty much do all same as cameo, just think they have a little smaller cut dimensions or something, or certain Cricut machines do, yours is a maker like my wife’s and I believe they do all way up to 12x24
@@sworley1956 I think if you do this without print and cut, just cut the card stock or vinyl with your Cricut, and then hand cut your sub image, or better yet just tape the card stock after laminate applied to the sub image and you don’t need to cut, or hand cut the sub image, which I do anyhow even with silhouette, but it’s only less than 8”, I don’t see why your machine would not cut if you have a 12” mat
@@sworley1956 I fully agree, just supplying info for those that don’t or won’t use silhouette, where they can still get their machines to cut it, lol, my wife often asks me to cut things on my cameo that she can’t cut on Cricut, or to trace a design etc etc
It could, as long as it stays adhered once u press the image to it, I have never tried the self adhesive, I’ve only used thermal, I have heard others say the self adhesive laminate peels, but I have not tried it myself so can’t say for sure.
Yes, this is not the most effective way of making a clock, I do not even use this method anymore, at the time I was playing a lot with the laminate so thought this might be cool, my channel doesn’t always show the best or most efficient ways but sometimes just alternate means lol
That is parchment paper lol, I had ran out of normal roll and bought some from Winn Dixie last minute and isn’t very good lol, although the thermal laminate is pretty sticky when it hangs over to, lol
Kids are having fun. Kids are great!
They are for sale!!! 😂JK, wouldn’t trade em for the world!

Hi Jeremy.... another great video. when you press on laminate what substrate do you use in the material settings? Tony UK
Hey Tony, somehow missed this, Usually for laminate I select Unisub, I figure its like a polyester coating
What if you turned the image over and pressed it on the other side for a few seconds to stop it from curling?
Probably a great idea, I have found at this point much easier to use photo paper.
I'm about to try this right now!

How do you keep from getting bubbles when putting it on ceramic tile.

How can I get the template for the dollar tree coffee mug
