We have a NEW application for our Klic-N-Kuts…..  Rhinestones!!!!

As of today, at www.scrapbookdiecutter.com,  you can purchase all of the necessary supplies to create your own rhinestone designs to iron onto T-Shirts, denim jackets, tablecloths, purses, shoes, and more!   The process, which will be posted in a tutorial at their site tomorrow, was used for the T-Shirt in the photos above. This was a shirt that Kylee embroidered and I wore at our St. Louis retreat. Last week, I decided to add a heart to the front.  So, I used one of two methods we have available in KNK Studio to create the design. Then I cut it from motif template rubber on the Klic-N-Kut, added the rhinestones, used a special rhinestone transfer tape to pick up the rhinestones, and then ironed them onto my T Shirt using my own home iron.  And the really cool thing is that this same rubber template can be used again and again!

To see the products for this process, go to:

Rhinestone Supplies

Note that besides the motif template rubber and the rhinestone transfer tape, there are plenty of beautiful rhinestones to choose from, in 2 different sizes, and in sparkly clear crystal and 10 additional colors.  The rhinestones are also sold in single gross packets (144 stones in a gross) or in larger quantities for cost savings.

Be sure to check  back here over the course of the next week as there will be free videos showing how to create rhinestone designs in KNK Studio.  Also, Accugraphic has ordered heat presses to add to their store in the near future. These will be useful for both rhinestone applications, as well as their T-Shirt Transfer Vinyl.

Please post if you have ANY questions at all.  Oh… and we WILL be doing this at the Celebrations Retreat in Raleigh in October!
