How to do deisgns on clothes using freezer paper?
I'm sure this has been discussed on here 1000x, sorry I've never paid attention. How do you do this? I was looking around online at halloween costumes (DS1 hates traditional costumes and likes the PJ's that look like costumes). Anyway long story short I thought it might be better to just make his PJ costume instead of buying it. Is it possible to do slightly elaborate designs (he wants a skeleton, so the whole rib cage is what I'm wondering about). TIA.

This is a great tutorial.

I don't think it would be hard and would be even cooler if you did it with glow in the dark paint.

Do you put freezer paper through the Cricut? If yes do you know the settings you use? I am still learning with mine and can use all the tips I can get for settings.
TIA
I do! i put it through on the mat of course. I use a lighter setting, not deep (can't remember which one but I'll check later) and a fairly fast speed. It took some trial and error. When I had it cutting too deep it would tear the paper and when it was too fast it tore as well. make sure you use a sticky mat!
I am hoping to make a few tonight so I'll check the settings then!
i checked. I have it on 2 and 2 although I changed it to the slowest speed and that worked for some things that were more intricate. the smaller details the tougher it is. luckily freezer paper is cheap!!!!
