Freezer T-Shirt Instructions

FREEZER T-SHIRT/ TOTE INSTRUCTIONS:

ITEMS YOU NEED:

Tote or T-Shirt
Iron – Mine is set on cotton setting
Tulip Fabric Paint
Freezer Paper – Found at Walmart near foil
Paint Brushs
Cricut – To cut out Stencil

1. Wash you tote/t-shirt and dry.

2. Iron out your tote/t-shirt so there are no creases where your image is going.

3. Select the image you want, size that you want, and cut in the middle of your freezer paper using your cricut. Make sure your FLIP button is on and the shinny side of the paper is up.

4. Take you stencil off your mat. Flip stencil over so shinny side is on tote/t—shirt.

5. Iron stencil on until all edges are secure to prevent paint leaking underneath. Make sure to add your little details that were cut out of your image. (strawberry seeds, eyes, etc, and iron them on too.)

6. Place an extra sheet of freezer paper or cardboard inside the shirt so that no paint leaks through. I DID NOT do this with the tote bag as the material was thick but you can.

7. Pour paint on brush or plate and paint. Let it dry at least 4 hours before applying a second coat.

8. When tote/t-shirt is all done let it sit for 72 hours.

9. After 72 hours wash inside out and dry. If it needs to be ironed I ironed mine while inside out.

How to Do A Iron on Transfer

I found this todo online.  I'll post a pic. as soon as I can.

Supplies Needed: CriCut Design (Any cartridge), Color Fabric preferably light weight cotton, HeatnBond Ultra Adhesive, glitter t-shirt paint, spray glitter, and an Iron.

1. Cut your fabric to the desired size for your design.

2. Iron the Ultra bond onto the back side of the fabric as directed on the packaging. Let the fabric cool before continuing.

3. Peel away the protective wax paper, and save (it can be used to protect fabric from scorching in a future step).

4. Place the fabric onto a cutting mat. Be careful to make sure the fabric is smooth, and there are no bubbles or wrinkles. I used a clean brayer to roll over the fabric to insure it's smoothness.

5. Cut your pattern as you would if it were paper.

6. Place the design on your project, and replace the wax paper over the top of your design, and Iron it onto your project.

7. I sewed ribbon down the right side.

8. The Pennant was cut from a piece of stiff felt.

9. The stars were ready-made fun foam glitter covered stars.

10. The pom poms were created from fuzzy yarn.

11. The Megaphone was cut from red fabric by hand using a template.

Tutorial: Tying Ribbon Knots

Ribbon Knots are a fast, simple and easy way to add some pizzazz to a card or scrapbook layout. One of the most frequently asked questions I hear is, “How do you make that knot look so pretty?” Let’s take a look and see…



Tip: Working with the ribbon attached to the spool allows you to adjust the length of the ribbon as needed and then cut it when you’re done. This will save you ribbon in the long run!

Take the ribbon and wrap it around your finger. When you bring the ribbon to the front, cross it up and to the left making an “x” at the front.

/div>

Gently move the ribbon forward on your finger, leaving the circle of ribbon that it formed intact. Using your thumb, push the ribbon tail through that circle. Notice how I’ve folded the ribbon as it’s gone into the circle. This will give you a nice clean edge later on.

Now, you can grab the tail that’s free on the right side and gently pull, tightening the knot. As you pull the tail, you can guide the knot to where you want it, positioning it before you tighten the knot fully.

Here’s the finished ribbon knot.

Let’s see what the ribbon knot looks like from side. You can see that the front of the knot (at the bottom of the photo) is completely flat. The back of the knot has some dimension to it. I try to make this as flat as possible by not pulling too tightly on the knot.

Here’s what the back of the ribbon knot looks like.

I love grosgrain ribbon. It has a very distinct look. It’s a woven ribbon which can at times present a challenge, in that the ends of the ribbon tend to fray. With grosgrain ribbon, if you end up with a tiny hanging thread, and it gets pulled, your ribbon can start unraveling! Yikes! We wouldn’t want that to happen.

To prevent grosgrain ribbon from fraying, apply a tiny drop of Liquid Glass to the backside of the ribbon. Spread the Liquid Glass across the end. Allow the Liquid Glass to dry completely. Trim off any hanging threads or cut through the center of where the Liquid Glass was applied to have a completely sealed end.

Now to adhere the ribbon to the card! Liquid Glass yet again. I put on a liberal amount of Liquid Glass, then positioned the ribbon and press it down firmly to flatten out the backside of the knot and get the Liquid Glass up into the knot. I hold it in position for a minute or so.

Tip: You can place a book or acrylic block on top of the ribbon to hold it firmly in place while it dries completely.



And….voila….the finished card.
