This afternoon I got together with a few of my friends to heat press designs onto some kitchen towels for Halloween. I'm going to start having regular crafting afternoons and wanted to start with something simple and easy - and this was PERFECT! Here's is exactly what we did, so you can do it too! I printed some Halloween images before people came so it would be all ready. And then I made a sample so they could see what we'd be doing. And I put out some flavored hummus and cookies because you can't have craft time without treats -...

Our watercolor singles are new and I know there are a lot of questions.  So here is a tutorial on how best to use the SVG or DXF file to cut around an image and make your projects quicker, easier, and never give you those dents that you get in your fingers when you hold scissors for a really long time!
