Great product!
Made keychains as a class gift and they are great! Def get the white as the ink will be more vivid and easy to see. At first had trouble feeding it through my officejet becuase the one side is smooth plastic. Also you can only do one side. But i ordered a printer the feed throught the top instead of a bottom tray and had no issued with that. There are other paper that you can print both sides but it's super expensive. Lastly I used a mini oven at 350 F and when I took them out, I flattened them with a spatula right out of the oven. I did 2 at a time so ensure the quality. They came out super cute!Lastly they can be brittle after baking I cured them with uv resin to prevent breakage and flaking of the ink

Wonderful for little charms!
Wonderful!I don't know WHY I never thought to do this before!Printed with Cricut design space, cut out on the magnet 0.5mm setting (two passes with 'more' pressure) - and poof! Took a heat gun to them and the gave them a UV resin coating before putting on little charm chords.Worked great with my printer. Print on the non-glossy side. Trying to figure out the math of how big I should make it to get a certain size when shrunk went out the window and I was winging it. In general I feel like it shrunk by more than half. (3.8" tuned into roughly 1.5")Food for thought : The images do darken when shrunk. For the most part it just made my artwork more rich - but the blue hammerhead was a very pastel blue prior to shrinkage.

Prints beautifully
Prints very well, though be careful with black ink as that can smear. I don’t like that after many attempts, I couldn’t cut it with my silhouette portrait 3. It would never reach through the glossy layer at the back. I’ve only used the white so far which I didn’t want originally. It works well for my white cat earrings.Tip for cutting, I tried all the tutorials, all the settings. I used autoblade. What did work was when I cut out the individual item, making a cut from the edge of the shrink plastic to the item edge then I could easily peel the partial cut without damage to the item. The cutter had made most of the cut. Tomorrow I’ll try a circle punch and see if that works.

This product is AWESOME!!!
This product exceeded my expectations. After reading other reviews for similar products and was discouraged, I decided to take a chance and order these inkjet printable shrink sheets. These do not bleed or smudge when printed. Although I only used MS Word for the images, I tweaked the color only slightly and the color printed bright and heated fine. They do shrink 5 times smaller, so make sure your images are large enough before printing.You can put the images really close together if you are super precise and accurate during cutting and separating before baking. Round shapes keep their round shape during and after baking. Odd shapes too. I was really impressed. I did use to books covered in aluminum foil for flattening the shrinks immediately after coming out of the oven. I covered them with a piece of card stock them pressed them with the books for a few seconds. I sealed mine with gloss modge podge spray sealer and they didn’t get super glossy. I am going to try a new batch and use clear embossing powder.I prefer the white sheets over the frosted. I wish the package wasn’t split 6 of each. I wish you could order all white. The color is brighter and if you cut the images out right to the edge, the only white that is visible is on the cut edge and the back.Brought back childhood memories. Super fun. I will purchase this product again. Very happy with the outcome of my project!

would repurchase
i've made a good handful of charms from this paper now, and i'm satisfied with the quality. there is a bit of a learning curve when you're starting out. here's a few tips I've picked up along the way:-reduce opacity of your image by 50% before printing (unless its B/W only) or the image will look terrible after shrinking. the prints will still come out a tad bit dark, and i usually do some manual touch-up work on my pieces to correct spots.-don't touch the front of the paper, & use gloves to cut out your pieces if doing by hand, as oils from your skin can ruin the paper.-make sure to use proper printer settings. this paper is slightly different from printer paper size, so input the proper dimensions. i also use the "matte photo paper" setting to print. (when i dont use this setting, i get slight horizontal lines across the image, likely due to the heavier weight of this paper when compared to printer paper)-bake those cookies until they lay completely flat, leave them in a bit longer if needed. i've never actually had one burn on me. quickly place between some heavy books & parchment paper to cool after baking to keep them flat.hope that helps someone just starting out!

Easy to use!
This is my beautiful doggie, Rico. I wanted to make some earrings with his face on them. I played with the sizes- the shrink isn't exactly what it says on the package. I printed at 3.5 inch height and my image shrunk to about 1.25 inches. The image comes out clear, though! One tip I learned- the image will curl up and then start to flatten, but it won't get completely flat without help. I used my toaster oven in my craft room, which I use to bake clay earrings. While the plastic is still in the oven and warm, right at the end, I put a tile on top of it to flatten it out. I pressed a little bit, and they turned out perfectly!

Not Water Proof and Smears
I bought this to make some charms and used and inkjet printer like it specified. I used 3 different printers with all the same results. It wouldn’t fully stick to the paper (it printed on the rougher, non-glossy side) and printed with small bits of ink missing from the picture. When it shrunk, it helped with this but the there were spots you could see the ink didn’t print on. Also the red on the lips of the pic smudged while in the oven for about 75% of them (pic on left). I tried to wash off 1 right after and it smudged, then I waited 2 and 3 days to try cleaning it off and right away the ink smudged (like the right pic). Do not recommend, doesn’t work for printing on, don’t buy.
