Sublimation Crafty Tip
SUBLIMATION is a printing process that allows photo transfer onto ceramic or glass tile. The basic process uses a heat sensitive sublimation dye to print graphics and text onto special inkjet paper. This is called a dye sub transfer. The dye sub transfer and a sublimatable item are then placed into a heat press. When the heating cycle is completed, the image on the paper has been transferred to the item and has actually become a part of the surface. Run your finger across the surface of sublimation and you will feel nothing.
