To go with our adorable I Do Crew Tumblers, I made some corresponding decals to use on shirts and other wearables! The shirts are great not only as Bridesmaid Proposals, but also for any pre-wedding events especially ones where you may have a large support group but not necessarily everyone is in the bridal party. These would be perfect to make, for example, to give to people going wedding dress shopping with you!
I made the “I Do Crew” decals on Mermaid Blue Glitter HTV and I made the Bride decal out of Gold Foil HTV and I love the color combination!
You can see our other Bridesmaid Proposal and Gift Projects here, so whether you were looking for tumblers, tank tops, or something else you can find the perfect set to propose to your best girls!
Supplies:
Blank TShirts
Easyweed Heat Transfer Vinyl or Glitter Heat Transfer Vinyl
Craft Cutter and Tool set
Adhesive Mat
TShirt Design Cut Files
After downloading the cut files, import them into the Cricut Software. After creating a new project, select Upload Image. Select the file you wish to upload and it will automatically take you to the final upload screen, where you can name the file the select Save. The SVG Files are sized so that they will automatically cut to the size you see in the photos, but if you want to change the size you can do so to fit the tank tops the way you like.
After selecting “Make It” Make sure to select the Mirror Mode on the cutting screen. Cut the design in your choice of heat transfer vinyl with the Iron On (for Easyweed Vinyl) or Iron On+ (for Glitter Vinyl) Setting on your Cricut, with the shiny side of the material down.
3. Weed the additional material off of the backing material so that, looking down with the shiny side up, you can see your design with the correct orientation.
4. Iron your tshirt or tank top to remove any creases, then center the design over the top half of the tank top. Arrange the design shiny side up, then cover with parchment paper. Make sure to keep the parchment paper between the design and the iron.
5. Set your Iron to the second Highest setting and press the iron down firmly on the design, not ironing but rather using it as a small heat press. I worked from the upper left to lower right on the design, pressing the iron on each part of the design for at least 20-30 seconds, then overlapping the last position as you move the iron across the design.
6. Remove the backing from the design, leaving the design on the fabric. Repeat with all remaining tshirts.
