Print Maker by American Crafts

 Come Craft With Me - Print Maker!


Hi, I was watching HSN (I know dumb)!  And they had the todays special value as the Printer Maker.  This is a small hand held printer that will print on almost any surface!  

It's AMAZING.


I am so glad I bought it and I have no regrets.  Absolutely no buyers remorse on this one guys.  


This printer is available at Michaels right now but on HSN you got special guides and things which made it a better price but most of the guides if not all of them are available for purchase.  American Crafts partnered with HP to make this printer so its definitely a good little printer. The PM is supported by Apple and Android apps and even has a desktop version that you can create print jobs from.  If you are a scrapbooker this is great because you can journal with this thing RIGHT ON YOUR SCRAPBOOK PAGE.  Think crops and portability!

You can use this for cards, bags, tissue paper, ribbon, washi tape, scrapbooks, Band-Aids, popsicle sticks, I mean the possibilities are endless.  I accidentally printed on my Silhouette Cameo mat!  LOL

You can import images, of your face, car club logos, your pets, your friends, anything!

It retails at Michaels for 199.99 right now and there are some accessories to choose from.

I am excited because you can make your own embellishments at the touch of a button.  It is so hard to find ASU scrapbooking embellishments but hmmmm I can take a picture, use an app to remove the background off of a photo, and make washi tape or ribbon, or journal, or really make anything to match my daughters ASU scrapbook now!

Check out some things I did with it.









They have guides so you can ensure the design is straight but I clearly didn't use them yet.  :)  There is a light that glows to show you exactly where it will begin to print.  You can set the print to print 1-10 of the image or an infinite amount.  



you can use the guide to help guide you in perfect straight lines.



If I want to journal on scrapbook pages I can do that by using multiple text boxes or using the guide to printing multiple lines on the scrapbook page.


I can also use this for my sentiments.  I can take a picture of a stamped image and import it or just type one out for my card.



I can even make my own handmade by print with whatever I want on it.


How cool right?

Then there is washi tape and ribbon!

I'll be blogging about that when I start creating washi and ribbon with my print maker.  

Thanks for reading and please follow me!

Come and make your own sublimation spray with me!

  Come make some sublimation spray with me! You are asking yourself what is sublimation spray and what is it used for? Well, as you may or may not know, you have to sublimate on polyester.  The higher the % of polyester the higher chance your image will stay on the item you are subbing on. Well, I found a way to make some spray that you can spray on cotton or any other fabric and it will sublimate.   For instance, I tried sublimating on this random patch I have.  I don't know what it is made of so i wanted to see if it would work.  It didn't.   Random Patch with no sub spray: Then I made the sublimation spray. Items you need: Polycrylic protective finish, I used clear satin but you can use clear matte as well. Spray Bottle Water Then your usual sublimation products: Sub paper Sub printer Heat press Fabric to sublimate on To make the spray, use 8 ounces of water and 2 tablespoons of Polycrylic.  Mix them together into a jar (I used a mason jar to keep the excess available.)  Pou

Close To MY Heart Embossing Pens and the Glue Quill Pen used with the Silhouette Cameo 4

Come Craft With Me!  We are going to play with the CTMH Embossing Pens and the Glue Quill Pen. I am eager to find out how the Glue Quill Pen holds up to the Heidi Swap Pen that I did a post on previously.  I cannot wait to get some embellishments ready to use. You can use these pens without an electronic cutting machine, but my handwriting is TERRIBLE, so I used my machine to create the images.  If you have good handwriting the same techniques could be used freehand or even with a stencil. You will need the following items in order to Craft With Me: Glue Quill pen (click here to buy) Close to my Heart Embossing Pens (click here to buy) Glitter (you can buy glitter anywhere you would like) Minc (click here to buy) Embossing powders (click here to buy) Heat Tool  (Click here to buy) Silhouette Cameo 4 (Click here to buy) Silhouette Cameo Pen Holder (Click here to buy) I have had the Close to my Heart embossing pens laying around outside of their packaging for at least a year and a half a
