Hello Divine Crafters. Welcome back in this blog post I’m going to give you the instructions on how I created this Grad Picture Panel Frame. Make sure to check the video instructions over on the Divine Creations by Erica Facebook Page.
What Material Do You Need?
Grad picture Panel Frame (I purchased mine from Blessed to Create Blanks)
Sublimation Printer

Heat tape
Parchment or butcher paper
Heat Press that can reach 400 degrees
Program to make your design. (I use Canva.com)
Creating Your Design.
You want to always make sure that you are measuring your items. For this project I will be leaving a little more room as I like to have a little extra space just in case an item moves when being shifted to the heat press. Set your heat press for 400 degrees and we will press each item for 60 second each. Here are the measurements I used to create this design.
The measurements I used for this design is a follows:
Width is 6.2 inches
Height is 7.3 inches
Lets get started on the crafting.
Size your image to the dimensions that you have measured. You want to be careful and make sure that you image is centered and that it will not be cut off with the words on the side. Once everything is sized and placed you are now ready to print your image.
THIS IS A MAJOR STEP IN PRITING SUBMLIMATION. YOU WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT YOUR DESGIN IS MIRRORED WHEN YOU PRINT.
Once you have printed your design cut out your image and tape it to your grad photo frame.
Now that you have everything taped down place a piece of butcher paper or parchment paper down on your heat press. You are going to place your item on the heat press with the paper facing up. Cover the project with another piece of parchment or butcher paper. Press for 60 seconds. Once the time is up remove the item from the heat press. Once everything is pressed and cooled down remove the tape and paper from your project.
You are all down and have created a grad picture photo frame.
Keep Crafting Family.
