  3. @CarlTyger that is amazing!!!! Love it! I tried to get into see the live but I was at work and by the time I checked you all were off! Ill go back and watch the replay!
  4. @CarlTyger thanks! It also cuts great. I love its look and feel. This is hat I finished. I layered holo on the brick to raise it off the hat (yes I know I pressed it a little too hard and long its harder with the mini press.) But the yellow Powerline silhouette and the pink Powerline name are in the neon brick layered on to Siser Easyweed. So if you wonder how small can it cut it does a pretty great job at fine detail.

  6. @Sara Benz The holographic pearl colors change or look different when placed on different color shirts since they are semi transparent. I like to hold them up to the shirt or fabric I am using before I decide so I know what the end result color will be.
  7. I feel this product is so underutilized I love it! Its the ease of regular HTV with the height of puff not as smooth cornered but cool anyways! I use the heck out of my sample kits but for some reason my original i bought a year ago and my updated kit I got in my welcome box about 2 months ago does not include the fluorescent colors of brick. Was there reasoning behind that or is the product new or being discontinued? Anyone else love using brick? I have put it on shirts and hats and I love the look!
  8. Can you layer on top of blackboard HTV with say a white Easyweed? Same question about Siser Metal?
  9. I use tacky glue and bearly art glue. I also use foam mounting strips for things that I want to have depth. For things like cards I find the tacky glue or the bearly glue works best. Hope that helps.
  10. So I have used both StarCraft and easyweed vinyls for htv and Oracal 651 and StarCraft adhesives. I like them both but sometimes StarCraft has the color I want vs what easyweed or 651 has to offer. Does anyone else find this to be the case? Also as a personal note 🤞🏼 could expressions vinyl sell StarCraft??? I mean I’d rather throw my money at EV than other companies?
  11. Awesome! Thank you. I will def try that.
  12. So I’ve attempted HTV on wood signs in the past with mixed results. Sometimes it seems like the vinyl slides or shrinks so there is a clear adhesive ghosting to the design. And sometimes it seems like it doesn’t actually adhere to the sign so when I peel up the carrier sheet it gets this weird wrinkled look. Any advice to getting it to work better? Is my temp too high? Am I pressing too hard? Am I trying to take the carrier sheet off too soon and not letting it cool?
  13. Agreed also I wish the grid color would be different I know I can turn it off but it’s nice to have sometimes. I also wish it would stay when you save it and re-open the design mine disappears. I mean there are tons of things I wish I could change with design space one main thing is the ability to save and share my created svg vs having it essentially their online property.
