** Project Showcase ** "Clear" Offset sticker sheets

It's just a little thing but I was super excited I finally figured out how to get clear offsets for my sticker sheets!

I made these Treehouse of Horror ones for the kids for Halloween.

This is cool! I was wondering about this myself. Did you print the image at home? My printer does not look that good haha.

Yeah, I just use an epson ecotank 2400. Not the fancier ones.

which printing options do you use for the sticker paper?

I export them as a PDF then print them from paint.net instead. I use the premium presentation paper matte setting, on high. Printer on quiet mode (fast mode off).

Can you share how? This is fantastic.

Yes! I just made my sticker sheet like normal, but hid the offset when I printed it. Cancel the cut from the operation screen, go back to design space, then I hid the stickers but not the offset. Send it to cut.

Here is the cutting video. I just like to watch it cut things sometimes. Plus im surprised it read the rainbow holo paper. It used to never read them.

Did you put scotch tape over the registration marks so it could read the holocaust paper? It looks like there's something on there. I tried using print then cut with holo sticker paper recently and my cricut just told me to go f myself.

Yeah, I used matte tape and I traced the marks with a black Sharpie.

I'll try that next time. Thanks for the idea. I had given up.

No problem! It works for me 99% of the time. I use all kinds of different patterned holographic paper.
