slice&dice 2,451 Posted December 17, 2013 Nice. I can't see from the picture, but I assume that you have the text welded, so there are no crossover cuts where the letters join? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
joker 618 Posted December 17, 2013 Oh yeah Slice that is my first rule of thumb for cursive. The problem i had is i installed a the font for the family food and love words and signblazer never detected it so i created it all in inkscape and it took me a minute to figure out how to weld that lettering in inkscape Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dawn's Design 403 Posted December 17, 2013 Looks nice. I've been doing some canvas prints. Spray paint one color put the vinyl on spray paint another color then peel the vinyl off. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
joker 618 Posted December 17, 2013 Yeah i tried one with painting them putting the vinyl on and hand painting it and it ran a little under the vinyl. So it kinda gave it like a rough look and the lady loved it...lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

xpaperman 719 Posted December 18, 2013 does the vinyl stick well to the painted canvas? I tried this with now paint and the vinyl didn't really like the blank, natural texture of the canvas to much. It stuck, but you can tell it is not down good. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dawn's Design 403 Posted December 18, 2013 I use spray paint from Walmart. It holds long enough for me to spray a different color on. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bought Jerzee T shirts for under $2 each. They have been out of Christmas items for weeks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
skarekrow 1,842 Posted December 18, 2013 Not that it matters but, I just looked and they are Gildans, not Jerzees. Wife says they are phasing out the Jerzees. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
