Personalized Ribbon with Sublimation Ink

Hello all,

Lori here, with another Artesprix iron-on-ink project over on the Artesprix Blog

No need for tags this year when you can personalize the ribbon for each package using Artesprix Sublimation Ink Pads, Markers and Sublimation Ready Ribbon.  With a few simple steps and some repeat stamping, you can easily create personalized ribbon that will impress your friends and family. 

What is Sublimation Iron-on-Ink?

It is an interesting and fun product that allows you to create a design on standard copy paper that can then be heat transferred onto surfaces (must have polyester in it or have a polyester coating). Once the project is transferred to the blank, it is lifetime permanent. Before Artesprix, you would need a fancy printer to experience this level of personalization, but not anymore!

Artesprix supplies:

Sublimation Ink pad – Red, Green

Sublimation Marker – Black Fine

Ribbon

Heat tape

Heat press

Protective Paper

Stencil – Modern Alphabet

Other Supplies:

Computer Paper

Loris Cards and Creations Snowflake set

Quick Tips Mixed Media Video

I hope you enjoyed this Personalized Ribbon project and will give Artesprix Sublimation products a try for your next creation.  I love that I can personalize ribbon for my holiday gifts this year!  Making personalized ribbon will definitely cut down on the need for so many tags that tend to fall off packages and get lost under the tree. 

Happy Day!

Be You: Sublimation Tumbler & Coaster

Hello all,

I am testing out the prototype of my new Sublimation Stamped Words set and created this fun Tumbler and Coaster. The Sublimation Word set (that I hope to have in production soon) is a set of my favorite phrases and words from the Be You and Winter stamp lines. I loved that I was able to stamp these faves’ directly onto my sublimation project without having to do any fancy dancing to get the image reversed. Awesome!

If you would like to create this project you can still use the Dragonfly and words from the Be You set, you will just need to use your typical method of reversing the word images for the sublimation transfer.

There has been a change in where you can fine my “Be You” stamp line that is being produced and distributed by Emerald Creek Craft Supplies. It is no longer directly available from the Emerald Creek website and will soon be sold by specific retailers. So, keep post for more information.

For step by steps, please check out the Quick Tips Mixed Media Video below.

Be You: Art Journal Cover

Hello all,

Back again with a new Sublimation Ink project. I have had a Prima Marketing Inc. Mixed Media Journal cover left over from another project (that I completed quite some time ago) and I thought I would see how this product took to sublimation. Unfortunately, it does not look like Prima Marketing still carries these covers. However, I found something similar on Amazon: Prima Marketing Resist Canvas Mixed Media Album Covers. I’m sad that these covers are no longer available because they worked great as a substrate for sublimation ink.

This project also features my “Be You” stamp line that is being produced and distributed by Emerald Creek Craft Supplies.
