Default Sharing my 1st successfully pressed result

Hello all,

First of all, thanks much to this great forum and to all the forum members who take their precious time to share the experiences.

I finally (I think ) got a right set up for Phototrans ImageClip transfer paper and I decided to share my result w/ you guys. I think this is my first step into heat press field and hope that I can improve as time goes.

This is very cute! I'm sure in just a bit you'll be teaching others how to do this. Ok, now for the questions....

What laser printer & heat press are you using? What kind of hand is present? Did you press at 400 degrees for 10 secs on heavy pressure? (I got that from reading about the ImageClip paper as I'm not that smart yet on this stuff! )

Thanks Ms. Blue
I'm using Oki 3400 and Mighty Press 15x15. Pressing at 400 for 12 seconds. Hope this helps.

Wow...Thank you so much guys. I didn't know I'd get this much compliment.
Robert, I just know little about photoshop & illustrator. My friend did few designs for me at a very low cost. Thanks to him.

I'm revisiting this thread to ask uilee, have you done wash tests?

How did the print hold up after washing and do you mind sharing a picture?
