Interested in Infusible Ink? It’s REALLY neat. This is my first project with infusible ink, a product from Cricut for sublimation (transferring ink from a design via heat). Unlike vinyl, it won’t peel off and it’s not susceptible to water damage from drippy drinks. These were SUPER easy to make.

Here’s the tutorial.
