Infusible Ink blanks are awesome but there are lots of alternate infusible ink blanks you can use similar to the one in this post! I also have a post about Cricut’s infusible ink blanks as well. While you’re here be sure to check out all my Cricut posts.
My husband requested I get separate laundry baskets for each person. I’m not sure why it took us this long to do that, but that’s a different topic.
I had recently learned about infusible ink at the time and really wanted to figure out a way I could use it. Amazon had the perfect option for us. There are other sizes of this laundry sorter as well so they might have the perfect option for you as well! I suggest getting the same one like me to make sure the steps are the same and don’t ruin the material. Not everything will take infusible ink well.
Infusible Ink Tips
I suggest making your design not too heavy on the weeding. You need to weed the material with your hands, not a weeding tool.
You also may want some latex gloves. The ink can transfer as you weed to the negative space from your fingers. I’ve messed up a few projects not wearing gloves. However, you can just be cognizant of that and try not to touch any of the sticky parts as you weed.

Instructions
Create and cut your Cricut file. Be sure to mirror for iron-on!
- Weed your material using your fingers.

- Place the fabric part on your Easy Press mat with the cardstock between the two layers of fabric.
