Did you know that you can create a custom puzzle with sublimation? Use it to reveal a secret – like a new baby or a trip to Disney World, or create a photo gift for someone special.
You Need:
- Computer
- Sublimation Printer
- Sublimation Paper
- Sublimated Puzzle Blank
- Heat Press
- Heat Tape
- Protective Gloves
- Design Software (We used Creative Studio which is included with the Sawgrass Printer)
When you open Creative Studio it will ask you what you are making. We selected the square puzzle.
Next, you will want to add your image.
Then resize it to fit the shape.
Save your project and send it to the printer.
Now, remove the plastic from the puzzle.
Take your printed photo and cut it to size.
Then adhere it to the puzzle with your heat resistant tape.
Set your heat press to 400 degrees F, change the pressure to medium and press your puzzle for 60 seconds.
Promptly remove the puzzle and remove the paper. Be careful the puzzle will be hot!
Put your completed puzzle back into the box, because you are done!
