Angie, you are soooo articulate, specific, and thorough in your videos when explaining things. I just found your channel after deciding to break down and spend $$$ on two Cricut machines (Explore Air 2 and Mug Press). Immediately I subscribed to your channel as you are no-nonsense; straight to the point yet detailed with explanations. I can't tell you how much I truly appreciate all the great information. You've already saved me from lots of frustration, wasted time and energy that I can now use toward creating! Thank you Thank you and MORE Thank you's!!!
Wow glad I watched this because I did my first project with parchment paper on top but not inside or on the bottom. My 2nd project again I used parchment paper on top but not inside and some of my 1st project was on the back of the shirt. Lesson learned. Trial and error. Learning curves for sure. Thanks for all your tutorials.
Omg I'm so glad I watched this video! I got my printer and my Hiipoo ink and was getting ready to try some sublimation but all I have is butcher paper with a waxy coating!! Man Angie, it's like you read my mind sometimes. Lol. Thank you for this video!!
How can I tell if there is a coating or not? I've read all comments & can't find an answer. Thanks for all your answers. I'm so impressed with you, Angie. You are an amazing teacher.
This is just what I needed and definitely helps answers all my questions. In making earrings with infusible ink, I found out how the ink can transfer onto my Cricut heat pad and teflon sheets. Thanks for this information.
Hi there Angie! I see in some videos, you can use Parchment paper in the mug press. Is it safe? If si, do I have to tuck it under the mug and cut it so it is above the top of the mug. Hoping to hear from you soon! Susan D
Thank you so much for explaining the difference. I was about to buy every paper you mentioned in the video. When I fact I only need protection or butchered paper. Much appreciated.
I’m in a pinch and using copy paper… do I need to layer a certain amount of sheets of paper or just do a single layer, enough to cover the ink space from the transfer? Making my family’s Disney shirts last minute & never done suv before and now I’m panicking 😅
Hello thank you for your awesome videos wondering if General Purpose Masking Paper my husbands a painter wondering if I should go snag that lol or I also found he had Builders Paper feels like Kraft Paper the masking paper is a bit thinner any idea how that would work both are brown ❤thanks again
Hi, I'm just getting all my things to start sublimation and got the brown butcher paper. It doesn't have any kind of coating on it or anything. Could I use it, or do I need to order the white? Thanks so much for any help.
@@AngieHolden you really do help more than the actual websites I’m taking this seriously so I wanna know everything I can I’m like a sponge rite now lol
@@AngieHolden nope I have never had an issue with ink and I have used the same teflon sheet for a few months. I'm a small business so use it regularly as well. I use the blow out paper and then the teflon sheet on top of that. I have actually found that it helps prevent scorching
We use Teflon sheets and baking paper in our shop, never any issues so when people post vids like this I’m guessing it’s more of a personal experience they went through themselves and viewers will get like minded over it. And always start with left chest prints first, then the back last. If you have to use a paper underneath, you’ll use smaller pieces.
I used blow out paper on top and inside shirt. My print comes out uneven. Bright in some areas and dull in other areas. When I used a Teflon sheet it prints perfectly. ( Teflon sheet ruined with excess heat) any thoughts would be helpful and appreciated
I see some people using painters tape instead of a protective paper do you prefer the protective paper over the tape or have you tried the painters tape method? Trying to get some learning and understanding of sub tumblers before I venture into it
Thank you for all your useful tips. I have a couple of questions. On my first time trying sublimation on 2 tumblers. no ink transferred on to the tumblers? I watched a lot of videos and followed the instructions to the letter. I used a Hamilton Beach toaster oven. Any idea what I could have done wrong? I just ordered the HTVRONT tumbler press and I'm going to try again. Instead of shrink sleeves I need to use butcher paper. I don't have white but have a bunch of pink butcher paper that is not uncoated , should I avoid using pink ? You recommended only using white, so should I just use copy paper for now?
If it is not transferring, you either don't have a sublimation ink or you don't have a sublimation coating on the tumbler. Only those two things could be the issue.
I have searced for butcher paper and i found Rolls with No coating of any kind 100% natural but all of The Rolls i find is pink, Can i use that when i sublimate because you Said it should be White and i cant find any Rolls in just White ?
Angie, if my heat press is 16x20, should I cover the entire bottom of the platen and the entire top with blowout paper? Or do I just use a little larger than the logo size?
@@AngieHolden I have a cup heat press and an oven. If I tape it down and use the heat press do I need Nything else. I don't know the temp and seconds either
Just tape is fine for a press then put protective paper over it. For the oven, I would add shrink wrap. Always look on the website where you purchased the tumblers to see what they recommend for time and temperature.
Does the butcher paper need to be white? My Walmart only has pink in stock to pick up at this moment. I am making mugs and then printing to put on shirts - so that's already on copy paper - would I just put additonal copy paper on that? Tia for answering!
WOW. Can you tell all those people who told us Teflon and parchment work?! Angie your first in person training I’m there! You explain so much better than most. Thank you. I did buy the butcher paper and I do like it a lot better. Next question is it ok to cover your plates of your heat press with the Teflon?
My shirts are turning yellow when I sublimate with the Sam’s butcher paper. What am I doing wrong? I use the Cricut heat press at 400 degrees, for 60 seconds. I even use the lint roller beforehand.
Hi, I purchased the protective paper from artespritx but its stains the shirt yellow. I use 400 degrees for 60 seconds on my commercial heat press. What am I doing wrong?
Any tips on removing bleed through on shirts? 😭 I’ve always used Gildan shirts and never had an issue with ink bleeding through to the back of the shirt, but I’m working on a large order now with Bella Canvas shirts and every single one bled through! PLEASE HELP!
@@AngieHolden I didn’t think so. I was just hoping maybe there were some trick I hadn’t heard of lol. I’ve done hundreds of shirts and never had this happen before, but I will definitely be using paper in between from now on. Thank you for the response!
Oh Dang, I was told to use Teflon paper or parchment paper after driving to two Walmart stores and Hobby Lobby, I was over annoyed at hearing "Sales clerks" tell me those were fine for sublimation as well as sounding like they have no idea what they are talking about.
I get the most uses out of Artesprix protective paper. Any of it can be reused as long as there is not ink on it. I just have an issue with the butcher paper turning brown.
Thank you all your videos are so helpful 💖 unfortunately can't find these in the uk... could any one recommend rolls of blow out paper that u can get here? Could I use the White Paper Easel Roll from hobbycraft?
Hi Angie, i jus saw your video! I love your tips!! So, what about the butcher paper that comes with the cricut infusible sheets? Do I use them and how do I use them??
You are my “Go To Gal”. Question….can you use the paint paper at Michaels that comes in the big roll? It’s aimed at children’s crafts, but seems similar to butcher paper.
Hi Angie! Quick question... Is there a difference in using white butcher paper vs the brown paper or my local store has a pink butcher paper. Just wondering if I NEED to get the white or if the others will be okay. Thank you for all the info you share in your videos!!!!!!!
Thank you so much for this video. I live in the UK and options are incredibly thin on the ground. Is it possible to use brown butchers paper, or does it have to be white? Many thanks.
Hi Angie, I’m not sure if you were asked this already but, I have a question in regards to sublimating polyester shirts…I made the mistake of using parchment paper and the ink from the design stained it. I continued to use the same parchment sheet and the ink then transferred to the next shirt I pressed. I ended up messing up a bunch of shirts not realizing what was happening. I plan to get some butcher paper or copy paper but I wanted to know if I need to change out the top blowout sheet (that covers transfer) each time?
Thank you for this informative video. Would you happen to have a link to the roll holder you use for your butcher paper? Thank you again, for this and for all the videos you share with us!
You use the pillows UNDER the shirt to prevent press lines so it doesn't need to release moisture in that case. You can see more here: ua-cam.com/video/SzyFsf85uvk/v-deo.html
My white butcher paper burns and sticks to the 100% polyester material ... heat press at 350 for 45 seconds medium pressure ... what am I doing wrong ?
@@AngieHolden I think my press was set in Celsius n I was putting it in F also was experimenting on a pillow case that was 100% polyester some say not to use that - I tried just reg plain paper as protective sheet n it worked - now to get the colours fixed up 🤦🏻♀️
I’ve been using parchment paper. Will there be an issue with the mugs I’ve already made? Also how many layers of butcher block paper or copy paper do I need on a mug going into Cricut mug press? Thank you
No issues at all! If you are using sublimation paper or the Cricut Infusible Ink transfer sheets, one layer is good. If you are using copy paper, three layers.
I actually subscribe to your channel very educational and informative. I am from the Caribbean trying to do my own t-shirt business what would you recommend for the best heat transfer paper? I am new to cricut need as much information as possible.
Just watched this film and it was good downside is I’m in the U.K. and I can’t find the artesprix paper and the butcher unwaxed on Amazon is £47, about $60 US dollars Would anyone who is in the U.K. know what paper to get for doing sublimation to protect your blowout? Would love to know what people use. Due to visit family in the USA next year once the U.K. is allowed in, I guess I will be buying the shops out and get my aunt going to her SAMs shop with a list. Thank you for the video I found it very useful and the only one Iv seen explaining what you need, now will have to go hunting
Angie thank you for your very helpful cricut videos! WHY COULD YOU NOT USE THE BROWN BUTCHER PAPER, OR THE CRAFT COLORED MAIL WRAP PAPER? I have only made one mug press project so far and I used the parchment paper you recommeded NOT to use, OOPS! My project turned out great but there were scorch marks on the paper. Maybe it was from trapped moisture? ID really like to hear your opinion on the brown paper. I know ill try it but if you respond it may save me a wasted project! LOL, THANK YOU FOR SHARING YOUR WORK!
I see the Artesprix butcher paper for sale on Amazon, but instead of "white" , it says "neutral". It looks possibly "off-white"? Sis that ok to use, or does it need to be truly white?
Help! I used Teflon because another video said to. They also said not to put anything between the shirt ugh. Can I use copy.paper on top and in between? The paper won't catch fire?
I just look at my copy paper and make sure it says on the back that it is okay to use in a laser printer or copier. That means it can withstand the heat. You didn't ruin the press but if any ink got on it, you will need to be really careful for a while until it wears off. Add extra paper.
@@AngieHolden thanks a bunch. I went to dollar store and got white packing paper. I used it and it didn't catch fire. But I have copy paper I will have to read the package. Have you ever used packing paper before? I saw on another video this lady said paper from U-Haul will work or may have been your video. Sorry I've watched so many. The paper did leave an imprint and it had a paper smell. But no burn marks just an imprint of the project I did
I'm in search of reusable blowout paper. Save money and help the environment and what not. So like 2 sheets that would be used forever lol anything like that?
Nothing that good as you need to get rid of it when you get ink on it. I can use the Artesprix paper more times than anything else without it browning.
Atresprix Protective Paper == siliconized paper. Parchment paper == siliconized paper. Is there a difference? Well sure! But saying never use parchment paper? Nah.

What about white craft paper? There is no coating on it. I have a huge roll of it from when my kids did art projects. Would that work?
It should work fine!

The brown can work well. I just don't like risking any of the pigment transferring.
@@AngieHolden that's what I was afraid of.
My store has pink butcher paper that is in coated. Do you think I could use this without the pink transferring to the shirt?
I choose not to use the colored paper so I don't risk the transfer.

I see some people using painters tape instead of a protective paper do you prefer the protective paper over the tape or have you tried the painters tape method? Trying to get some learning and understanding of sub tumblers before I venture into it

That is not ideal.

Hello Angie! I had purchased some 18" X 175' Kraft paper. Can I use this for any type of sublimation?
A white kraft paper would probably be fine as long as it doesn't have any coating on it.

I get the most uses out of Artesprix protective paper. Any of it can be reused as long as there is not ink on it. I just have an issue with the butcher paper turning brown.

There is a chance the color can transfer to your surface under the high heat.

Can you re-use the butcher paper after every use? Or do you have to toss it out after every sublimation?
I reuse my protective paper as long as there is not any ink on it.
@@AngieHolden Thank you!
Thank you so much this video helps out so much
Glad it helped!
I see the Artesprix butcher paper for sale on Amazon, but instead of "white" , it says "neutral". It looks possibly "off-white"? Sis that ok to use, or does it need to be truly white?
Yep that is fine!
Help! I used Teflon because another video said to. They also said not to put anything between the shirt ugh. Can I use copy.paper on top and in between? The paper won't catch fire?
Oh also did I ruin my heat press? Because I reused the Teflon and I saw some went on the shirt
I just look at my copy paper and make sure it says on the back that it is okay to use in a laser printer or copier. That means it can withstand the heat. You didn't ruin the press but if any ink got on it, you will need to be really careful for a while until it wears off. Add extra paper.
@@AngieHolden thanks a bunch. I went to dollar store and got white packing paper. I used it and it didn't catch fire. But I have copy paper I will have to read the package. Have you ever used packing paper before? I saw on another video this lady said paper from U-Haul will work or may have been your video. Sorry I've watched so many. The paper did leave an imprint and it had a paper smell. But no burn marks just an imprint of the project I did
@@AngieHolden I should also mention it says Kraft paper on it as well. Fingers cross I don't burn down my house 😂
Thank you! Very helpful as always.
So glad!
@@AngieHolden hello angie.so you can not you the butcher paper that is waxed on one side??
Can you reuse the butcher paper and if so, how many times?
I reuse as long as it doesn't have any ink on it.
Do you clean your heat press after doing sublimation?
Nope! This paper keeps it clean.
I’ve been using parchment paper this whole time and nothing wrong with
Wow
thanks for the video 💙 i get scared using different paper(s) thinking i’ll cause a fire
Thank you 🙏
You’re welcome 😊
Why does the butcher paper have to be white? Would brown craft paper work?
With the intense heat, color can transfer from anything that is not white.
Link for purchasing?

How about white cardstock instead of copy paper?
It should be thin for the top layer. You can use cardstock on the bottom.
I use 2 sheets works great and cheap
Can you use craft paper ?
You can. I don't like using the brown paper though.
Also on the 'Do NOT Use' list is freezer paper and wax paper.
Definitely!
❤❤❤❤Thank u
You are so welcome!
I'm in search of reusable blowout paper. Save money and help the environment and what not. So like 2 sheets that would be used forever lol anything like that?
Nothing that good as you need to get rid of it when you get ink on it. I can use the Artesprix paper more times than anything else without it browning.
Hello! Has anyone ever used pain newsprint paper?
Why can you not use Teflon
It doesn't release moisture and if you get ink on it you just ruined a pretty expensive item.
I use a teflon sheet on top of my blow out paper. I have found that it helps with scorching
Atresprix Protective Paper == siliconized paper. Parchment paper == siliconized paper. Is there a difference? Well sure! But saying never use parchment paper? Nah.
