I learned a lot through doing this next video. It was some painful learning but in the end, it turned out great. ua-cam.com/video/uNH3QWejnMI/v-deo.html
I got around to working on the shirt last night and found that the hotfix tape stuck pretty badly to the contact paper making the process difficult. So I am now working on a solution:) Will have the full video sometime in the next few days. The problem I had with it last night slowed me down a bit. I will be talking about the problem I had and what I have done to find the solution (at least I hope it ends up being a good solution:) Thank you for watching!!!
@@MakingwithMarilyn OK, thanks but what about the paper the comes on the vinyl, is it less sticker t hen the hotfix tape and will the rhinestones still to it good
I did have issues transferring the rhinestones to the shirt because the hotfix tape stuck to the cardstock but I will go over that in the next rhinestone video. Thank you for watching!!!
Miss Marilyn, I just received an order of ss10 rhinestones which are great, but the flat backs are shiny. Do all ss10 rhinestones already have the adhesive on them or to I need to apply it first. Which glue should I use if I need to. Please and thank you.
There are two types of stones with flat backs. One is actually called "flat backs" and they do not have adhesive on them. They are typically used for hard surfaces such as tumblers, fingernails, or even leather shoes. The stones used for fabric are called "hot fix" rhinestones. If you are looking to put them on fabric with a heat source, you will need the hot fix type.
I found a glitter cardstock that worked much better than this one. With this cardstock, the transfer tape you use to move your stones would not release from it very well. Here is some 250 gsm glitter cardstock (the type that doesn't shed) that works better. I typically just use the actual flock now, but the glitter cardstock works okay. amzn.to/490q59f
I use the fine point blade on my Cricut. If you use a Silhouette, you would have to do some small circle test cuts to see what works for you because I don't have a Silhouette cutting machine. But I do not think you would use a rotary blade on these tiny circles. Thanks for watching.
I would definitely use glitter cardstock (the type that doesn't shed) over this Kraft cardstock. The glitter cardstock released the transfer tape that you have to use to transfer the rhinestones much much better than this uncoated cardstock. Here is a link to what I prefer and it is 250 gsm. amzn.to/490q59f
Nice job Marilyn, thanks for sharing. This I’ll be my first time working with the rhinestones and I was winding if I could use this to print a template I may purchase?
No, I was basically referring to any purchased of templates I may purchase online for interest some templates from Etsy. The question was could I use the card stock method in printing any purchased template
I ended up finding that this cardstock was not coated, so the hotfix transfer tape was sticking to it and parts of it were pulling up. So, I ended up using this glitter cardstock instead and it works great. amzn.to/3zgeNyz
@@erickabradshaw I am very sorry that you have experienced something that left you with ptsd. I find crafting to be really therapeutic. Hopefully you do or will, too.
@@MakingwithMarilynWow, didn't think you would respond, thank you... I will toss out the idea of vellum, transparencies, or the thicker clear cover sheets and also thin crafting foam ;) for your pleasure as well.
It is a design that I modified from Creative Fabrica. www.creativefabrica.com/product/blessed-gigi-svg-quote/ref/1340608/ I replaced the lower cap G with another capital G. I will be using HTV for the word "Blessed" and I think I will not even use the little arrow. I will show a lot of this when I do the full video in case you are interested.
Thank you Barb!!! I plan to use cardstock for those templates that I will use only once or very infrequently. I still plan to cut flock for ones I will use over and over. Thanks for the suggestion of storing it flat!
Thanks Marilyn. A while ago, I tried using cardstock template for a project for my girlfriend and it worked. She loves her t-shirt!
Thank you so much , I’ll be waiting for what tipe of card stock you used

Thank you! I hope it works for you. I love the glitter cardstock. Some people do and some people do not:)
For the life of me, I can't find the rhinestone icon on sure cuts alot2. That's why I bought the program. Help please. Thank you.
Thanks going start using cardstock
I did have an issue with the transfer tape sticking to it, so I ended up settling on glitter cardstock paper and it worked great. Thanks for watching!
I will be trying this because that flock is soooo expensive. Thank you for sharing Marilyn!!🥰
It sure is!!! I can't believe how expensive it is! Thank you for watching DaRica!
Thanks Marilyn, I will be trying this out, It will be awesome if card stock can do the trick. Thanks for sharing

Cardstock works great!
It sure did!!! I was amazed!
Yes cardstock works great!
I watched your video on it today after CraftyLeo said she got the idea from you! Great idea!
TFS👍🏽I've used card stock as well.
I am so happy I saw this on UA-cam because it was easy and so inexpensive!!! Thank you for watching Nicole!
I use cardstock myself and have no issues.
Tracey
I will be using it a lot from now on!!!
@@MakingwithMarilyn agree and much cheaper from what I see.
Thanks for sharing this I use cardstock too and it works well.
Thank you Koa designz! I am not sure why I didn't see to try this sooner, but am so happy I saw the UA-cam videos where people suggested it:)
What card stock do you use
Great idea! I’m always looking for savings!🤗
You're welcome Mary!!! I would have never thought of this on my own but so glad I saw others do it. Thank you for watching!
Great job Marilyn. Love it💖
I did have issues transferring the rhinestones to the shirt because the hotfix tape stuck to the cardstock but I will go over that in the next rhinestone video. Thank you for watching!!!
So much money saved!
Do you use the heavy cardstock setting when you cut it?
Miss Marilyn, I just received an order of ss10 rhinestones which are great, but the flat backs are shiny. Do all ss10 rhinestones already have the adhesive on them or to I need to apply it first. Which glue should I use if I need to. Please and thank you.

hi..i want to knw to make using cardstock need to used rotary blade or can used auto blade?
I use the fine point blade on my Cricut. If you use a Silhouette, you would have to do some small circle test cuts to see what works for you because I don't have a Silhouette cutting machine. But I do not think you would use a rotary blade on these tiny circles. Thanks for watching.
I NEED TO TRY THIS METHOD
Yes, it worked so well! I think a big thing was to use thicker card stock. Thanks for watching.

Thank you Joyce!
Nice job Marilyn, thanks for sharing. This I’ll be my first time working with the rhinestones and I was winding if I could use this to print a template I may purchase?
Thank so much! So you would like to buy the GiGi template?

@@MakingwithMarilyn im learning 😌
Good video thanks ❤I stick with flock
I mostly do these days too:)
Thanks for sharing
You are welcome! Thank you for watching and commenting!!!
Thanks Marilyn, did you spray the back of the card stock with adhesive?
I did not Sam, but I see where that could be really good if it tries to lift up. Thank you for watching!
Use laminated cardstock...
I ended up discovering glitter cardstock and it has worked really well for me. I will try laminated cardstock as well. Thanks for the suggestion!
@@MakingwithMarilynWow, didn't think you would respond, thank you... I will toss out the idea of vellum, transparencies, or the thicker clear cover sheets and also thin crafting foam ;) for your pleasure as well.
What font is this?

Washi tape! I think as long as the cardstock stays flat the process will work . For storing Cardstock will need to keep it flat.
Thank you Barb!!! I plan to use cardstock for those templates that I will use only once or very infrequently. I still plan to cut flock for ones I will use over and over. Thanks for the suggestion of storing it flat!
Washi tape. That’s the important part I forgot when I tried the cardstock template.
Thanks Marquita! I have a couple of other thoughts on the project that I will talk about when I make the shirt video.
@@MakingwithMarilyn I’ll be looking out for the notification.
