This is a sponsored conversation written by me on behalf of Cricut. The opinions and text are all mine.



Cricut is really killing it this year with new products...Infusible Ink, new QuickSwap Maker tools, and the EasyPress Mini! It is the newest addition to the EasyPress family and is the cutest tool I have ever seen! Today, I am putting it to work and showing you how to add a faux pocket to a plain t-shirt.

Open up the above project and size the pocket if you need to. Load the patterned iron on vinyl shiny (pattern) side down and start the cut. Unload the mat and weed the excess vinyl from around the pocket.

Once I positioned the pocket where I wanted it, I used a mini safety pin to keep it in place while I ironed it on. Preheat the Cricut EasyPress Mini to the Medium setting. Once hot, move the Mini continuously over the transfer (like an iron) until the design is adhered since there is not a timer. Gently peel away the liner to reveal a faux pocket!

If you ever need help with any of the settings for the EasyPress machines, head to www.cricut.com/heatguide. You just choose the machine you are using, then select the materials you are using in the drop down boxes and it gives you all the info you need! I used this for the first time on this project and it was so much easier than looking through the manuals.
