How
do I create my image? |
|
|
|
Design your image on the
computer using photos, graphics and/or text. “Mirror
image” before you print.
This may also be referred
to as “Flip/horizontal” in your computer program’s
tools. Many printers offer
“mirror
image”, “t-shirt mode” or “reverse
mode”
in their printer settings options. You may wish to test your
final image by printing to a plain piece of paper first. Insert
a single transfer sheet into your printer so that printing
appears on the white, not the blue side of the transfer sheet.
Print the image using the chart below as a guideline for your
specific printer. Allow image to dry 30 minutes before transferring.
Cut out image if desired. Trim approximately 1/4” from
colored ink areas.

How
do I iron the Soft 'n Stretchy (Light) Transfer Sheets? |
|
|
|
Preheat iron
to highest (cotton) setting. DO
NOT USE STEAM. (Empty any water that may be in iron.
Allow iron to preheat for five minutes). Place a pillowcase
on smooth, hard, heat resistant ironing surface such as a
wood cutting board. Do not use ironing board. Iron pillowcase,
if necessary, to remove wrinkles. Pre-iron garment or project
to remove any moisture and wrinkles. Position transfer image
side DOWN on project surface.
Using firm pressure, slowly iron over the entire surface
with sufficient overlapping (1) side-to-side (2) bottom to
top and (3) along the edge moving continuously for 2-3 minutes.
Remove transfer backing paper immediately or when it cools.
Depending upon the material used, a gentle pulling / stretching
motion applied to the fabric after removal of the backing
sheet may aid in the process of the transfer setting into
the fibers.
