Matte Laminate + Carrier Sleeve!

Matte Laminate + Carrier Sleeve!

Someone mentioned trying carrier sleeve to help with matte lamination silvering and warping.

Printed and let dry with a desiccate bag in a sealable folder for about 12 hours. Set laminator to 6mm for extra heat. Let it heat up for a while. 3mm matte lam then carrier sleeve. Two passes and they came out great!

I use, 42lb double sided glossy koala, 3mm matte scotch lam pouches, cheap laminator, carrier sleeve.

Spent the weekend figuring out how to cut with the cricut!

Made a dummy shell print then cut. Came up with a way to add the registration lines to a proxxied pdf that keeps the image quality and paper size the same. Tricks the cricut into thinking it’s the same as its print. I’m using an old explore air 2 so some limited to 6 cards a sheet at the moment. Still need a few tweaks on centering but overall not bad!

Can post all my steps if anyone’s interested.
