Note: Keep in mind that each line of text is only good for one transfer. Many grocery stores have a copy machine near the customer service desk. Or you can print it at home on your ink jet and then photocopy it wherever there is a laser copier. You can print the Word document at a print shop like FedEx Office, Staples, or Office Depot. Print the template using a LASER printer.Note: You may need to adjust text size depending on the font you choose. The text needs to be printed in reverse since it will be inverted when you transfer it to ribbon. Click text box to edit text and font as desired. Regardless of the type of ribbon you use, be careful that the ribbon and the paper don’t move while making the transfer or you will end up with blurry text. We highly recommend against using satin ribbon, as this transfer method will not work on satin. Grosgrain ribbon and velvet ribbon work well, too although velvet ribbon can be a little tricky depending on how thick the velvet is. *We’ve had the most success using seam binding ribbon since it is tightly woven and lightweight. Text printed in reverse – LASER ONLY (Ink jet will not work.).Light colored ribbon*: seam binding, grosgrain, or velvet ribbon (Satin will not work.).You are not limited to only transferring text-try high contrast black & white images as well. We transferred text to ribbon, but you can transfer to other surfaces as well, such as paper or wood. When you are making the transfer, the solvent in the blender marker lifts the toner from the paper, allowing it to be transferred to another surface. The two key components to this craft are the laser-printed text and the Chartpak blender marker. Have you ever wanted to make customized ribbon to wrap up your homemade goodies? Now you can with this blender pen image transfer tutorial.
