Come see how I used Sublimation Markers to make these beauties. Maybe, you'll be inspired to create your own. These would make perfect gifts for your booklover friends! I am a avid reader and these make me so happy!

What are Artesprix Sublimation Markers?

Magic Ink that transfers their beautiful colors from plain copy paper to a polyester product with a heat source. Iron-on-Ink Markers are the way to personalize sublimation, which is specially formulated inks that transfer only when activated with heat.

Materials & Tools:

Step-by-Step Tutorial

Step 1: Trace your Bookmark onto a plain piece of copy paper using a pencil. That way you know how much space you have to work with.

Tip: Set your heat press at 400 degrees fahrenheit for 45 seconds before you start working on your bookmarks. That way, the heat press will be hot enough to sublimate your images when you are finished. :)

Step 2: Stamp images within the traced area using the Sublimation Ink Pad and Acrylic Block. Next, color in the images using your Sublimation Markers. It's OK to go outside the lines...that way you do not get any white edges if you are coloring the entire background.*Sublimation Stamp Pad for Artesprix projectColor your Iron-on-Ink design using Sublimation Markers
