Design Space Friday Using a Pen for Easy Weeding

Do you have a problem seeing the lines on the Glitter heat transfer vinyl (HTV)? I know I do. I saw this cool trick of using a pen to draw the lines first and it worked for me so I thought I would share.

Remember to test your pen on a small sample first to be sure it does not smear. I used the Cricut black fine tip pen NOT MARKER and it did smear if I did not let it sit for a few minutes to dry.

Also test wash the sample piece to be sure any ink still on the HTV does not bleed out onto the material

There are FOUR great Stamps of the Month and we start with Sweet Treats. A great stamp for Halloween, Christmas, winter, and friendship.

Here are to cards I created using Sweet Treats!

I created a Halloween shaker card using our new Shaker thin cuts and Shaker Window Foam & Acetate (Z4310). I used one of the circle thin cuts to cut a small circle in the card base and used the larger circle and frame to create a see through shaker. I cut little bats on the Cricut and added the Shaker Sequins.
And don't forget to do the inside and envelope
Next I cut a large circle with the Shaker Thin Cut and added a Cricut cut leaf frame. The Warm Winter Wishes image was stamped on the inside and a piece of Ruby polka dot ribbon from my stash was added to the front.
