VALENTINES DAY SUBLIMATION MINI BAG/ARTESPRIX

Hello everyone! I have a Valentine’s Day project to share with you!  You will not be able to resist this project… and by the time you see how fun this is to make, you’ll be making one, too! These little bags are perfect for some candy and gift cards! And they make great gifts. Come see how I created this adorable Valentine’s Day bag  using Artesprix’s sublimation markers!



Materials:


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.

Step-by-Step Tutorial:

Step 1. Place the mini bag onto a piece of plain copy paper and trace the outline using a pencil to determine the area that you have to work on. 


Step 2. Using your stamp and Sublimation Ink Pad, stamp your image onto the copy paper. 


Step 3. Color the images using Sublimation Markers.


Step 4. Place the film from the stamp behind project paper and trace the sentiment using a black fine tip sublimation marker against the window to create mirror text. 


Step 5.  Next, tape down the bag onto the paper using heat tape (image facing towards the bag). 


Step 8. Turn your heat press on and set the temperature to 400 degrees Fahrenheit and the timer for 50 seconds.

Step 9. Create your sublimation sandwich. Cut two pieces of Protective Paper to cover your project on the top and bottom. Place it inside the Heat Press (making sure the colored image is pointing face up towards the top of the heat press). The Heat Press will beep indicating that your project is finished!


Step 10. While wearing protective gloves, lift the handle and remove your mini bag. Place it on the Protective Project Mat and give it about 2 minutes to cool down. Gently remove a small piece to take a peek to make sure the colors are vivid. 


Step 7. Carefully, remove the protective paper to reveal your vivid design! Embellish as desired.
