What Do You Need for Cricut Infusible Ink?

Cricut Infusible Ink is one of the most popular crafting tools for creating detailed, professional looking projects. It is an entirely new type of ink that uses heat to transfer designs directly onto fabric and other surfaces. The ink bonds with the fabric fibers and won’t crack, peel or fade over time. You can use it to make t-shirts, bags, pillow covers, and other projects that turn out looking beautiful.

To use Cricut Infusible Ink, you need some special supplies. First and foremost, you will need a compatible Cricut cutting machine. There are several models available including the Cricut Maker and Explore Air 2 machines. The Cricut EasyPress 2 heat press machine is also needed to press your design onto your fabric or other surface.

You also need a compatible cutting mat like the standard green mat or one of the more specialized mats for more intricate designs. For infusible ink transfers, you will need either a plain sheet of transfer paper or an iron-on sheet depending on what kind of material you’re transferring your design onto.

Other supplies you may need include scissors for trimming any excess material from your design, weeding tools for removing any small pieces from intricate designs, and a lint roller to make sure that the area where your design will be transferred is completely clean before pressing it down.

Finally, you will need some Cricut Infusible Ink itself in order to create your project! This comes in several different colors as well as metallic options that add a bit of sparkle to your designs.
