These fun Coffee Themed Gifts are perfect for any Coffee Gift Set! Make this Coffee Shirt and Coffee Themed Coasters using your Cricut machine and Infusible Ink! From overthebigmoon.com!
Open up the Cricut Design Space for the Coffee Themed Coasters HERE!The coasters are currently sized to fit the Cricut Infusible Ink Coasters. At this time you can change the colors on the designs if you want. I currently have two designs set to cut on black, one on green and one on the Cabbage Rose Infusible Ink. Feel free to change the colors if you want. When ready, hit 'MAKE IT' in the top right hand corner.
Verify the designs separated onto the mats correctly. I moved my 2 black designs a little further a part then they defaulted to. You will also need to MIRROR the designs on all the mats (just like Iron On Vinyl). Once that is done, hit 'CONTINUE' in the bottom right hand corner.
Select your machine from the drop down menu. If using an Explore Air 2, set the dial on your machine to custom and then on your computer select your material to Infusible Ink.
Next, put the Infusible Ink on the Standard Grip Mat INK SIDE UP. I love to use my brayer to make sure the Infusible Ink is on my mat good.
Load the mat into your Explore Air 2 or Maker machines. When the 'C' button is flashing, press it. Repeat for each mat.
Weed the Infusible Ink Designs. This is done easiest using your hands and if needed use a weeder tool.
Wipe the coasters down with the lint cloth included in each box of Infusible Ink. Apply the designs to the Infusible Ink Coasters. It's recommended to use Heat Resistant Tape to hold the design down good on the coaster.
Next up, get your EasyPress 2 preheating! Use the EasyPress Heat Settings Guide to verify the temperature and timing needed. Currently it states to heat your EasyPress 2 to 400 degrees and to apply heat for 240 seconds!
Get your EasyPress Mat and place a piece of cardstock on it. Then place your coaster DESIGN SIDE DOWN. Then put the parchment paper down on top of the upside down coaster. Then apply your heated EasyPress 2 for the recommended time.
Allow to cool completely before removing the design. The coasters can get VERY hot and can take up to 5 mins to cool!
Coffee Infusible Ink Shirt
Open up the Cricut Design Space for the Coffee Themed Shirt Design HERE!The design is current sized to fit the Mens Medium shirt. I chose that shirt, because I liked the round neck line of the mens shirts for this design. Resize it to fit the shirt you're planning on using. Feel free to change the colors if you want. When ready, hit 'MAKE IT' in the top right hand corner.
Verify the design looks right on the mat and MIRROR the design on all the mats (just like Iron On Vinyl). Once that is done, hit 'CONTINUE' in the bottom right hand corner.

Use a lint roller and go over your shirt. If you press the shirt to make sure there are no wrinkles, allow it to cool completely prior to applying the design.
