    Make this adorable So Franken Cute – DIY Halloween T-Shirt with my free PNG file and your Cricut. The perfect 30-minute Cricut craft project! 

    So Franken Cute - DIY Halloween T-Shirt

    I made this So Franken Cute – DIY Halloween T-Shirt last year for my son. Sadly, I made it just a few days before Halloween! I loved it so much and he only got to wear it twice. I’m happy though, that I documented the t-shirt making process. Luckily, he still fits in it this year and has already worn it a few times. If you’ve never layered Iron-on Vinyl before this is the project for you! It only requires 3 layers and is done from start to finish in under 30 minutes with a big thanks to the Cricut Maker!

    Supplies:

    • Cricut Maker
    • “So Franken Cute” file found on Cricut Design Space™
    • Cricut Mat
    • Cricut Iron-On Vinyl; black, dark green, and kelly green
    • Cricut Tools
    • Cricut BrightPad
    • T-shirt
    • Cricut EasyPress
    • Cricut EasyPress™ Mat (optional)
    • Cricut Iron On Protective Sheet (optional) or Muslin Cloth

    Cricut Maker cutting Iron On Vinyl

    First, you start by cutting out the Iron-On Vinyl on the Cricut Maker. I love to look on the preview mat in Design Space to see how large each cut is. This is the perfect time to use scraps!

    Next, you weed the negative from the design. I love my Cricut BrightPad for this reason!

    So Franken Cute Layer 1

    Next, it’s time to grab your Cricut EasyPress and begin the layering. First you start with the dark green head layer.

    So Franken Cute Layer 2

    Next, you add on the bright green layer on top. Make sure you carefully align the two colors together.

    So Franken Cute with Cricut EasyPress

    305 degrees Fahrenheit for 30 seconds is the EasyPress recommendation. I always reference the Cricut EasyPress chart. If you use it on your phone you can use the interactive chart which in my opinion is even better then the chart on the website!

    So Franken Cute Layer 3

    Next, you add on the black and the additional stitches. *A rookie move and one I have to point out–make sure you have enough clearance on the stitch from the text. I’ve ironed on top of plastic before and then had a very incomplete design. So if you can’t make this work in one smooth swoop then go ahead and add a fourth step.

    So Franken Cute Pulling Of Plastic from Iron On Vinyl

    I always recommend doing a warm peal of the plastic (as does Cricut). It’s not burning your hands hot, but it’s also not cold! It comes off easily, too.

    Easy as that… you have the cutest Frankenstein inspired Halloween shirt for your little guy or ghoul!
