I really dislike having to watch a video to learn something. When I googled how to do some thing, I really just want to be able to read because I have never found a video that wasn’t painful to watch due to all the unnecessary chatting or explaining of things, or whatever. This video was perfect! You covered everything in enough detail, so that it is understandable, but yet didn’t go into more detail than necessary. I have subscribe to your channel and look forward to watching more.
I JUST saw sublimated stickers on Instagram last night. I said to myself "Self, you HAVE to hit up TH-cam tomorrow and find this wonder and see if it's real." Now I see it is. Thank You. I can't WAIT to try this!!!
thank you for being the only person to answer the question as to whether or not you can print directly on the sticker paper or if you have to transfer it from sub paper.
Everywhere I turn, there you are. I google something and up you pop with your super helpful and informative videos! I love that I can count on you lol Thanks!!
That's a great way to make stickers, I usually laminate them first with UV laminate and then cut them to make them waterproof. I used my maker 3 and it read the registration lines. I have never done sublimation for stickers, Thanks for showing me how.
Thank you so much!! I’m new to this & I have sublimation ink & I just wasted 15 sheets of sticker paper because it wasn’t coming out bright. I just ordered different brand of sticker glossy paper thinking that’s the problem but this helps so much!! Glad I don’t need to buy a new printer
Angie! You always have the best videos! I swear if I have any questions on whether or not I can do something, I can find it on your page! You’re the best thank you so much
For regular stickers…What if you want to cut the stickers all the way out for individual stickers. What setting would you use. This is cool and love all your tutorials
This is great. You are so talented. Thank you for sharing your talents and taking the time to make these wonderful informative tutorials. I learn so much from you.
A hack for the explorer Air 2 I saw was to tape matte tape onto the sensor itself when cutting something shiny and glossy. I tried that and it worked out well for me.
The matte tape you'd use to tape over the cut lines of a glossy paper, use that to cover the sensor head instead. It works the same way to reduce the glare. But you'd use less tape.
They look amazing! I been thinking of doing sublimation for a while now and you keep popping up on anything I search for sublimation. Keep up the great work you’re doing! You are helping the community so much with your videos. Oh, I forgot to mention, I subscribed after watching a few of your videos
love this video Angie! as always you never let me down, you are my crafting Guru. I always refer to you videos for any of my crafting needs! love how you explain everything so clearly, so easy to follow! I want to do sublimation stickers but having difficulty finding sublimation sticker sheets that I can get in the UK. any ideas or alternatives maybe??
I've been needing waterproof sticker paper for a Forest Animals puzzle that I cut in my Glowforge Aura. (we all know how small kids put things in their mouth). I only cut the silhouette of the animals and now I'm wanting to put the animal sticker on the wooden silhouette pieces. My question: Do I need to mod-podge the wood before I put the sticker on it, or can I mod-podge over the sticker? Thanks Angie! You're da best!
That's so exciting!!! Is the vinyl/sticker sheet permanent by any chance? I'd LOVE to use it to make waterproof earrings (on clear, plastic vinyl) for this Summer!!! 🥰
I just started following you on Instagram, which I love bc now I know when you will add new content on TH-cam LOL. I love your videos and I appreciate, I guess we all do, the time you spend doing all this experiments for us. You are great . I don't have a sublimation printer yet, which is a bummer, but soon enough I will get one. 🥰
I loveee this idea and video! Thank you so much I have NEVER done stickers of any kind whatsoever. I have a converted sublimation printer and Cricut machine. I already ordered the sticker paper you recommended but i saw it was a good bit of a shipping charge that ended up adding quite a bit to the overall charge. My question is: is the products they sale on Amazon like the Alva Vynil sticker paper for jnkjet printers the same as this type of paper? Or would it be a different process. That way if it is possible to just pay the product price and not also shipping plus taxes at the end. Thank you so much for your help! Like I’m saying I’m very new to making stickers and any advise helps!
The paper will curl... but will it become flat if you lay ut flat and put some heavy object on it ? And will this be a better way to make stockers, than using a inkjet printer to print stickers directly?
This is mainly for people that ONLY have a sublimation printer. There are many great sticker papers on the market for inkjet printers and that would be a much easier way to make stickers.
Awesome video… as usual, Angie! I’m just bummed today. I ordered and received my new Auto Press and after many tests and a call to Cricut it turns out it is defective and I have to return it!! Cricut has awesome customer service department and we’re very apologetic and very helpful
I have a question? I just bought an epson printer and i don’t want to add the ink until I figure out what I should do. I want waterproof labels like your video but for shampoo bottles. Was using a regular printer then laminating. Background is black then I use laser printer for foil. My question is would I follow your video to do my labels with sublimation ink or just the ink it comes with because pigment ink is also waterproof? I’m lost but I know I want my labels how these came just unsure if ink will matter if both are supposed to be waterproof. Even though I laminated, water still bled through
Thank you for your videos it was super informative. I have a question can sublimation sheets work on the 98% of sticker paper out there, that use regular ink?
Hi there. Great video. I am new to this world. How would I make stickers with a back to sell individually? I’m guessing that would be another type of sticker paper?
What if you wanted to go ahead and cut through the backer to have them separated to store them differently? I’ve got ideas for if and when I get a sublimation printer again and just curious 🙂
Hi Angie, if i want my stickers to cut all the way through, is there a setting i should use because the white sticker setting did not work for my cricut maker 3
Hi, thank you. FYI I received an email yesterday on this video. So, I can put the sub paper on sticker on magnet sheet to cut at the same time, correct?
Excellent video. Angie, if you want to cut the sticker backing paper as well would you recommend recutting before releasing the mat from the Cricut? I’m thinking if I wanted to make individual stickers to hand out. Thanks again for sharing your talent
Yes you can use this on a tumbler or cups but they are just stickers. The adhesive on these wasn't great so they would not last long in wet conditions.
I link to the supplies I use in the description below the video. On computer, scroll down and click show more. On mobile, click the arrow to expand the description or swipe up on the video depending on how you are watching.
This is the first product I saw like this so I am not sure who else is carrying it right now. My guess is products like these will become more available over the next few months.
Hi again I have an issue with making my own stickers. I used copy paper first of all because I am out of butcher paper at this time And I hoping it’s okay to use copy the only problem I’m having is keeping the copy paper still. I did what you said I used hippo matte sub paper and oracle 651, And taped them together and pressed them for 380 for 30s and the melted together. I was devastated I don’t know what I did wrong they didn’t even turn into stickers.
I tried this method and my sticker sheet melted using 380 for 30 seconds. I'm using the AutoPress. Do you have any other recommended settings that I can try? Thank you in advance.
So am I correct in thinking even if the image is mirrored when you print it, and then turned back around when you sublimate, the cricut will still cut the stickers out correctly?
Can it sublimate on any other vinyl, did you try and what Is the best or similar to this vinyl because I live far away from USA and can't find this vinyl just "regular" (Oracal, Avery etc)
Hi, I have tried to make some sublimation stickers but after I have sublimated onto the sticker paper and come to cutting it on my cricut maker 3 the cricut is cutting it in its original position which is not matching the image. Do you have any advice please? Thank you ❤
I wonder if you could just use regular sticker sheets? I wasn't able to find sublimation sticker paper on amazon jist normal sticker paper. I am only able to use Amazon to buy my supplies 😔
I am new to sublimation and would like to give sublimation stickers a try once I have actually started.(still reading and watching a lot of youtube videos before I start) but is there another sublimation sticker sheet brand I can get off Amazon?
@@AngieHolden Thanks for your reply back!! I just now saw this..lol. But I did look on Amazon and did not find anything related to the sticker sheets that you had linked.
When I print and then sublite the colors are weak and splotchy. I've watched the video several times. I layer the sticker paper under the sublimation print tape them together with the heat resistant tape, cover with non coated butcher paper and then use mediumish pressure for 30 seconds at 380 degrees. They turn out awful. I am wasting my supplies trying. Using the Cricut easy press and all of the recommended supplies you listed. HELP!
Just want to make sure you have the sublimation sticker paper and not just any sticker paper. And that you are printing with a sublimation printer using sublimation ink?
@@AngieHolden Yes, I have an epson with Sublimation Ink. It's printing beautifully - the images are awesome, but when I press they are ugly! I tried turning my temp down and applying better pressure just now, but it's still not giving the full image transfer 😕 I just watched your video for trouble shooting, but no luck.
Well that is odd! The only other thing I can think of is uneven heating or pressure. You are not using an EasyPress mat are you? It probably gives too much for this project. Use a heat resistant mat instead!
I don't know of any other vinyl you can sublimate on but I haven't tested any options. You have to have polyester content in the vinyl in order for this process to work.
So the paper you have listed below isn’t the “brand” paper. Does it work just as well? I just bought the sublimation printer and in that video you suggested the brand yet it is hard to find.
Hi Angie. Got a question. I use white paper, my designs are white but when I use the ecotank, the background comes out kinda dark and I don't like it. How can I get it to print white background?
So I tried this and my cricut maker 3 cut the prior to mirror shapes if that makes. Like I mirrored it (my stickers have writing so I have to) then after I sublimated it, it cut what it would have been before sublimation. So the mirrored images. Does that make sense? Help!
I have a small question and it might be silly. Im looking to make stickers, however my printer is A4 and the sheets your link takes you too, only provides 13" x 9" in size. Is there somewhere else i can purchase these from? Im in Australia

Sublimation overload with joy! I do not even have a sublimation printer, but your tutorials are so fun to watch !
Thanks!

great job! been sublimating since 1987 keep rocking
Thanks, will do!
For regular stickers…What if you want to cut the stickers all the way out for individual stickers. What setting would you use.
This is cool and love all your tutorials
I would try medium cardstock them move to heavy if that doesn't work!
Hi, I just came across your page.
I recently started sublimation and my stickers smudges every single time
thanks for the idea, as usual i used what i had on hand and it worked. i am never afraid to ruin a sheet of this or that. again. thanks
Glad it helped!
Ik I'm about to sound dumb but I gotta admit that my favorite part of your videos is when u say "Hello Welcome!"🤩🤣
I can never NOT say that now.
This is great. You are so talented. Thank you for sharing your talents and taking the time to make these wonderful informative tutorials. I learn so much from you.
Thank you for this video, my grandchildren going to love it, buy supplies today,,,,
Hope you enjoy
Wow! I’m excited I’ll have to order the sticker paper. Thank you
I love your videos! I am just now starting in the Cricut world and your videos are my absolute go to! Thank you so much for all you do! 🥰
You are so welcome!
A hack for the explorer Air 2 I saw was to tape matte tape onto the sensor itself when cutting something shiny and glossy. I tried that and it worked out well for me.

can you explain what you mean by this
The matte tape you'd use to tape over the cut lines of a glossy paper, use that to cover the sensor head instead. It works the same way to reduce the glare. But you'd use less tape.

What’s the difference between printable vinyl paper and sublimation adhesive paper?? I love your tutorials 🤗🤗
A printable vinyl is used with an inkjet printer.
Thank you for this tutorial. Pls can a mini heat press be used for this? Thank you
You probably can.
love all your videos your always a big help
I really appreciate your videos! Would you recommend any non cricut sticker products?
Try this: th-cam.com/video/TAhqBngndbQ/w-d-xo.html

You can use sticker paper on a REGULAR inkjet printer. If you have a sublimation printer, you would need to follow the steps outlined here.
The paper will curl... but will it become flat if you lay ut flat and put some heavy object on it ?
And will this be a better way to make stockers, than using a inkjet printer to print stickers directly?
This is mainly for people that ONLY have a sublimation printer. There are many great sticker papers on the market for inkjet printers and that would be a much easier way to make stickers.
Super helpful!
can you do this with any sublimation printer? I've got a sawgrass SG1000
Yep!
Please show us glow in the dark stickers. Do you have glow in the dark cups or sublimation even better. Thanks
I have done glow in the dark tumblers but not on TH-cam! SORRY!
@@AngieHolden how do you do glow in the dark sublimation stickers? What's are the materials? Thanks
Awesome video! Thank you so much. Looks like the sublimation sticker sheets you used are out of stock. Any other recommendations?
I have heard of people using Oracal 651 but I have not tried it!
Awesome video… as usual, Angie!
I’m just bummed today. I ordered and received my new Auto Press and after many tests and a call to Cricut it turns out it is defective and I have to return it!!
Cricut has awesome customer service department and we’re very apologetic and very helpful
Oh no!
Can I place these on tumblers? Wondering if they’ll hold up to regular hand washing with soap and water 🤔
I don't think the adhesive is strong enough to hold up very long.
Thank you Angie another great video.
Thanks for watching!

You can do it either way. I will say that you probably won't get a label that will last indefinitely in a shower.
Did you test if they were waterproof when stuck on something like a water bottle?
I did not.
Thank you for your videos it was super informative. I have a question can sublimation sheets work on the 98% of sticker paper out there, that use regular ink?
The sticker paper has to have a polyester content and not all of them will. I can't say any particular sticker paper will work.
@@AngieHolden what are your thoughts on laminating regular sticker paper and sublimating onto the laminate? Is it possible?
Hi? When we wash these cups with these stickers they should be able to stay correct?
These would definitely be a hand wash only as I wasn't super impressed with this adhesive.
Do you use a CMYK or RGB colour profile in procreate before putting it into the cricut design space to print? ☺
Seriously I have used both and don't see a ton of difference.
Did you try clear or transparent paper paper too? What is the best temperature?
I only tried this paper.
Hi there. Great video. I am new to this world. How would I make stickers with a back to sell individually? I’m guessing that would be another type of sticker paper?
You can do a through cut on these instead of a kiss cut. Just pick a thicker cut setting.
Awesome tutorial!! Thank you!!
Glad it was helpful!
Okay so you print on a normal piece of paper, then heat press it on a sublimation sticker paper and then the cricut cuts it out?
You have to print into sublimation paper then heart press it to sublimation sticker paper
You print on a sublimation printer with sublimation ink on sublimation paper.
How do these stickers do in the sun? Do they fade?
I think they would fade but I have not tried it.
Thank you Angie, you answered a lot of my questions. I'm ready to tackle this!
I'm so glad!
Can you explain how the cricut reads the guide box? Im confused on how the cricut machine actually knows where the out line of the stickers are
It is using a camera to see the guide box.
What would be the best cut setting when making individual stickers?
If you want a through cut, probably a heavy cardstock setting.
What if you wanted to go ahead and cut through the backer to have them separated to store them differently? I’ve got ideas for if and when I get a sublimation printer again and just curious 🙂
You can just use a deeper cut setting.
Hi Angie, if i want my stickers to cut all the way through, is there a setting i should use because the white sticker setting did not work for my cricut maker 3
Try this: th-cam.com/video/oxqenLw2L4w/w-d-xo.html
Can you give a quick product list please
All products are always listed in the description below the video.
Is there a benefit of using this sublimation process vs just printing them on a waterproof glossy sticker paper with a regular printer?
Nope. Some people have been asking for this as they only have a sublimation printer.
How do you get the thick black line around the print mine does 4 half triangles around the 4 corners I am using the cricut maker.
This is the old print then cut. The new just has the corners. It will work the same.
I have tons of printable sticker paper for ink jet printers any chance I can get away with doing this with that printable sticker paper
It may or may not work as it needs a poly coating to work.
Hi, thank you. FYI I received an email yesterday on this video.
So, I can put the sub paper on sticker on magnet sheet to cut at the same time, correct?
Any sticker or magnet sheets have to have a polyester content to work.
So the sticker sheet is already waterproof? no need to laminate?
They were waterproof with no other steps!
If I dont have artestrix paper, can I use parchment or butcher and is this type paper also resuable if no ink gets on it?
You can use butcher paper. It has a tendency to yellow from the heat so I don't get as many uses out of it.
Is it UV stable? I have been using sublidecal to make sublimations stickers, but it is not UV stable, looking to make some for car decals.
I am not positive on that one!
Excellent video. Angie, if you want to cut the sticker backing paper as well would you recommend recutting before releasing the mat from the Cricut? I’m thinking if I wanted to make individual stickers to hand out. Thanks again for sharing your talent
I would just do a thicker cardstock setting. Medium would probably get it!
Would you say these sticker sheets are as strong as Oracle 651 Permanent vinyl?
No I don't think so.
Can it be used to wrap a tumbler or cups?
Yes you can use this on a tumbler or cups but they are just stickers. The adhesive on these wasn't great so they would not last long in wet conditions.
Can we use these stickers on glass surface?
You can.
Is this sublimation vinyl? Or is it actually paper? It looks like vinyl but I wanted to ask first before I order it
What I used was sublimation sticker sheets that yes are vinyl.
@@AngieHolden I wonder if you could use this to make car decals?
Will this work on a printable vinyl sticker?
Not all sticker papers will be able to be sublimated.
Thanks
What type of sublimation sticker paper did you use
I link to the supplies I use in the description below the video. On computer, scroll down and click show more. On mobile, click the arrow to expand the description or swipe up on the video depending on how you are watching.
Can these be used for car decals? I dont want to just make a simple car decal. I was to be able to use my sublimation.
I would not use this material for cars.
@@AngieHolden so I would have to layer vinyl?
Can I make a car decal using this method ?
I would not.
Is there any other source that heat transfer warehouse for the sublimation stickers paper? Shipping to Canada is a lot :(
I havnt found this sublimation sticker paper yet in Canada, but did find subli decal and I THINK it’s essentially the same thing.
This is the first product I saw like this so I am not sure who else is carrying it right now. My guess is products like these will become more available over the next few months.

I haven't tried this with Oracal 651. I have heard it works but I have not personally used it!
@@AngieHolden oh what type sticker paper are you using where did you get it i mean
I have what I am using linked in the description below the video.
can you use the Cricut easy press 2 to do theses????
It should work.
I tried this method and my sticker sheet melted using 380 for 30 seconds. I'm using the AutoPress. Do you have any other recommended settings that I can try?
Thank you in advance.
Using the sticker material I link here? You do need a special sticker material.
What cut setting would you suggest for a die cut sticker?
I would go with heavy cardstock. That should do it!
Did you mirror the cut too???
Once you mirror then press the stickers are back to where they should be for cutting.
How you get your stickers to be that size, my cricut doesn’t let me do it that big ?
The print then cut size has changed over the past year and is now much larger.
So am I correct in thinking even if the image is mirrored when you print it, and then turned back around when you sublimate, the cricut will still cut the stickers out correctly?
Correct.
Can it sublimate on any other vinyl, did you try and what Is the best or similar to this vinyl because I live far away from USA and can't find this vinyl just "regular" (Oracal, Avery etc)
I have heard some Oracal versions work but I have not tried it myself.
Hi, I have tried to make some sublimation stickers but after I have sublimated onto the sticker paper and come to cutting it on my cricut maker 3 the cricut is cutting it in its original position which is not matching the image. Do you have any advice please? Thank you ❤

Well that is odd! The only other thing I can think of is uneven heating or pressure. You are not using an EasyPress mat are you? It probably gives too much for this project. Use a heat resistant mat instead!
Also you can sublimate on oracle 651 vinyl. Is there a specific reason you used this sticker sheet instead?
I don't know of any other vinyl you can sublimate on but I haven't tested any options. You have to have polyester content in the vinyl in order for this process to work.
@@AngieHolden correct. Oracale 651 😁
Could you put this on mugs?
I would not use these for mugs.
What kind of heat press do you use? I’m new to sublimation
I have a Siser heat press, Cricut AutoPress, and various EasyPresses.
So the paper you have listed below isn’t the “brand” paper. Does it work just as well? I just bought the sublimation printer and in that video you suggested the brand yet it is hard to find.
I am not sure what you are asking? For sublimation paper, I like Asub and Hiipoo for my EcoTank.
Hi Angie. Got a question. I use white paper, my designs are white but when I use the ecotank, the background comes out kinda dark and I don't like it. How can I get it to print white background?
Just don't have any color on the background and it will not be there.
So I tried this and my cricut maker 3 cut the prior to mirror shapes if that makes. Like I mirrored it (my stickers have writing so I have to) then after I sublimated it, it cut what it would have been before sublimation. So the mirrored images. Does that make sense? Help!
You need to mirror in your printer settings NOT in Cricut Design Space.
Would this work with the cameo 4 ?
Not sure.
I have a small question and it might be silly.
Im looking to make stickers, however my printer is A4 and the sheets your link takes you too, only provides 13" x 9" in size.
Is there somewhere else i can purchase these from? Im in Australia
I just cut the 13x9 down for my printer.
I wonder why you cant print directly onto the sublimation sticker paper?
Sublimation does not work that way.
