Supplies
Chalkology Ink Iron, heat press or mini press Stencil of choice Permanent vinyl-- my preference Oracal 651 parchment paper Your creativity Grab your vinyl colour of choice. You can pre-cut a shape by hand or use your electronic cutting machine like a Cricut or Silhouette Cameo. Or you can create your design and cut it out after-- a little fussy cutting (hand cutting close to the design) can create a unique look. * Fuzz of your stencil (Tap it a few times on a towel to remove a little of the stickiness, we don't want to pull the vinyl off it's backer yet!). * Place your stencil as desired. * With your inks and create, create create. Gently pull your inks across the design, remember no need for hard pressure. *Gently remove your stencil. Wash the ink out of the stencil so you can re-use it. *Allow your ink to dry on the vinyl, you can speed this up by using a cool air fan/hair dryer. *Using an a heat press at 300F or an iron (med heat), heat set your inks by placing a piece of parchment between the design and your iron. Press for 30 seconds -- just long enough to set your ink but not enough to melt the sticky off your vinyl! *Stick your vinyl to the item of choice & admire your fabulous work! Let's STICK on the creativity! I'd love to see your designs.
