Press’n Seal as Vinyl Transfer- REALLY WORKS

I am always on the hunt for a money saving tips and when I saw Leirad's Card Making Corner’s Inexpensive way of transferring Vinyl I knew I had to try it. The whole concept is use Glad’s Press’n Seal as the vinyl transfer and save lots of $$.

Here is the savings…

Press’n Seal $3.00 for 23.7 yds= 10 CENTS a yd

Silhouette Transfer paper $14.99 for 6yds =40 CENTS a yd. Plus, I haven’t even included the shipping costs!

Plus, if the Press’n Seal fails I can use it in my kitchen!!

Here are your typical supplies for vinyl application including the Press’n Seal

Apply the sticky side of the Press’n Seal to the vinyl cut out. And use a scrapper (anything you can find in the kitchen) to help it adhere to the Press’n Seal Be careful, this stuff is thin and can tear!

Here is the moment of truth… it does need a little help but all in all it works.

Ta-da!! There is my vinyl….

It wasn’t until I got it to this point that I realized…oops where is the apostrophe?

Easy fix… and here is a beautiful gift for my daughter’s friend who is turning 7. Filled inside of it is make-up and nail polish from the dollar section and clearance section at Target. This gift cost me a total of $7.50 including the 1 cents for the Press’n Seal Transfer!! {wink, wink}
