Hey there, my name is Carmille from Carmille And Stuff and I'm here to show how you can create a pumpkin themed custom shirt design using HTV vinyl. The vinyl can be machine-washed so your design will never get faded over time. Kassa just released this BRAND NEW vinyl and I'm so excited to create with it!
Materials you'll need:
- Any blank shirt (cotton or polyester fabrics work best)
- A Pumpkin SVG (Free Download HERE) )You can always make your own design in Procreate.
- Kassa Heat Transfer Vinyl Sheets
- Scissors
- Heat press or an iron
- Weeding tool and
- Teflon sheet (included in HTV pack)
Step 1
Start with uploading a design to your procreate app and adding lettering or more drawing for more cool designs.
Step 2
Once done, upload your design to Cricut design space
NOTE: (if you wish to layer them, remember to save and upload your design ONE BY ONE to design space)
Step 3
Place and cut the vinyl (plastic facing the mat) design by color, one by one. Make sure to remove the blue protective film. Place this side face up.
NOTE: don’t forget to click MIRROR setting before cutting!
Step 4
Carefully weed the excess vinyl using the included weeding tool
Step 5
Prepare the shirt by running a heated heat press or iron on it for about 10-15 seconds.
Step 6
Place the design where you want it on the shirt. Make sure the clear transfer film is facing up. Cover with teflon sheet and press heat press/iron with medium pressure for about 20-30 seconds.
Step 7
Wait for the plastic to cool, and you can peel the transfer tape film off!
NOTE: If the design and the transfer tape do not separate, just put the teflon sheet back on and apply more heat. Wait for it to cool and try again.
Step 8
Layer and repeat the process until your desired design is completed! You can use scissors or tweezers to help you with the peeling.
Step 9
And.. that’s it! You can run and press the heat press on your design, covering with the teflon sheet, for about another 10-15 seconds to remove any moisture from the shirt
