Instructions

Use The Cut File

1. 1. Download the cut file in Cricut Design Space (click the "Customize" option to adjust the font, size, alignment, etc. as needed to fit the size of your shoes).

Make The Cuts

1. Click the green “Make It” button in the upper right corner. This will send your print to the mat.
2. Under “Material Size”, select “12 x 12 in.”.
3. Select the “Mirror” option (this cuts out the text backwards – which then gets applied to your shoes with the print showing the standard way).
4. Click the green “Continue” button on the bottom right.

Prep and Load Your Mat For Cutting

1. Take the protective film off the 12"x12" Standard Mat and adhere a 12″ wide by 12″ piece of the iron-on on it.
2. Be sure to brayer it or press it down all over to make it stick completely.
3. Next, select the green “Browse All Materials” link option from the “Select Material” option. Select “Glitter Iron-on” and click the green “Done” button.
4. Load your fine tip blade securely into the slot on the right in your Cricut Maker.
5. Use the arrows button on your Cricut Maker to gently load the mat.
6. Once the loaded, the “Cricut” button on your Cricut Maker will blink – push it to begin cutting.
7. 

Weeding Your Print

1. Once the Cricut Maker is finished cutting, click the arrow button on the machine to unload the mat.
2. Carefully peel the iron-on from the mat (this is easily done by peeling the MAT from the material [instead of the material from the mat]).
3. Use a weeding tool to remove all the negative space material (everything you DO NOT want to appear on the shoes) but be sure to keep the iron-on on the clear plastic liner (your phrase will appear backwards).
4. If needed, use a BrightPad to see the cut lines for easier removal.

Prepping The Shoes

1. Stuff the shoes with socks, newspaper, or towels. Make sure they are really stuffed and stretched out - it will make the iron-on print go on easier and wear longer.

Adding The Glitter Iron-On Design To The T-Shirt

1. Place your cut and weeded print on your shoes (remember that since you had it cut out as a mirror image, it will now be placed on the shoes with the print the right way and the clear plastic liner facing up).
2. FYI, it's a lot easier to apply this print to your shoes if you cut the up the cut large piece into smaller pieces. This will make it easier for the print to fit on the shoe's small areas and curves.
3. Use leftover liner pieces from to cover up the already ironed on designs. This will protect it from direct heat.
4. Use the EasyPress Mini to gently press transfer the print on to the shoes. Set the heat at the highest setting.
5. Peel off the clear liner once it's cold to the touch.
