Very neat. QUESTIONS; you do not state what type of printer that is needed Is this the same as the clear except roes gold, etc.) Can I use the clear and use colored pencils on it then shrink it? Last, can I cut it afterwards if I need to?
Dear Jess, I have been having real difficulties with the shrink plastic. First of all it wouldn’t go through my printer, so I bought a new one, which now works. Now my problem is: the printer ink is not drying. Help! Thank you x
Hi there, sorry to hear you've had trouble with this. Firstly just to check are you using either the printable or the metallic versions shrink plastic (some of our shrink plastic is not printable but these ones are)? Also if using the metallic, we would advise printing on the matte side rather than the shiny side. Hope this helps, thanks
How would you heat the shrink plastic in an old toaster oven that you don't use for food anymore and could the plate and top piece be put in the oven to help keep the shrink plastic flat? TIA
Jess used a die cut for these pieces, mostly Bigz dies or simple Thinlits such as Framelits! However yes you can just use scissors to cut the plastic if you wish!
Jess used an inkjet printer for these pieces but you could use any printer that will take a thicker material and just let the ink to dry for a minute or 2 and the ink shouldn't rub off the plastic.

Hello Jess, I am using the metallic. I shall try the matte side, thank you very much 😊
How would you heat the shrink plastic in an old toaster oven that you don't use for food anymore and could the plate and top piece be put in the oven to help keep the shrink plastic flat? TIA
We wouldn't recommend this, we'd suggest using a heat tool and shrink plastic accessories for keeping the shrink plastic flat. 😊
Thanks. I know my stamp group has done them in an toaster oven when we have several pieces.
Hi, can I use Sizzix printable on laser printer? Thanks
@sizzix
Will that rub off of the plastic?
As long as you leave it a minute or two to dry, it shouldn't rub off :)
Can I use other tools to heat and shrink the plastic?
You can use an oven to heat the shrink plastic but, generally, we find a heat gun a lot quicker and more convenient! :)
Do you have to use a die cut to cut this shrink plastic or can I use scissors?
Jess used a die cut for these pieces, mostly Bigz dies or simple Thinlits such as Framelits! However yes you can just use scissors to cut the plastic if you wish!
Do you have to have a specific printer to print on this? Will all printers work?
Jess used an inkjet printer for these pieces but you could use any printer that will take a thicker material and just let the ink to dry for a minute or 2 and the ink shouldn't rub off the plastic.
Can I use laser printer? And do u print on the sanded surface? Thanks

This video didn't show any of the glitter on the pieces!
If you go to around 15:40 in the video where Jess shares a closeup, you'll see the scrabble letters are glittery :)
