SNOW-MOBILE ORNAMENT/ARTESPRIX

Good morning. Nicole here! I'm excited to share this adorable ornament for the holidays I created using Artesprix's Sublimation Markers and the Sublimation Ink Pad that is available in the shop. Christmas is coming so I want to get a heads start on making some fun decorations for my home! I do it for my son...I’m not big on decorating, but I don’t want to ruin it for him. :)


What are Artesprix Sublimation Markers?

Magic Ink that transfers their beautiful colors from plain copy paper to a polyester product with a heat source. Iron-on-Ink Markers are the way to personalize sublimation, which is specially formulated inks that transfer only when activated with heat.

Materials:

Metal Ornament 

Gnomie Botanical and Black  Sublimation Markers

Sublimation Ink Pad

Trinity Stamp’s Snow-Mobile Stamp Set

Stamping Acrylic Block

Plain Copy Paper

Pencil

Heat Tape

Protective Paper

Project Mat

Tools:

Heat Press or Home Iron


Step-by-Step Tutorial:


Step 1: Trace your ornament  onto a plain piece of copy paper using a pencil. That way you know how much space you have to work with.


Tip: Set your heat press at 400 degrees Fahrenheit for 90 seconds before you start working on your ornament. That way, the heat press will be hot enough to sublimate your images when you are finished. :)


Step 2: Stamp images within the traced area using the Sublimation Ink Pad and Acrylic Block. Create mirror text by tracing the image using the Tracing Application using your phone.


Step 4: Next, color in the images using your Sublimation Markers.


Step 5: Using heat tape, tape down the ornament (white side faced down) onto the images. 


Step 6: Place a piece of Protective Paper at the top and bottom of your ornament.  Place your "Sublimation Sandwich" inside the heat press for 75 seconds at 400 degrees Fahrenheit. 


Step 7: Carefully, remove the project from the  heat press using gloves. Take a sneak peek to make sure that the ink transferred all the way onto the ornament. 


Step 8: Then place the ornament onto the Project Mat to cool down. Then, remove the paper and heat tape to reveal your vivid designs! Embellish as desired!
