This Cricut or Silhoutte project uses simply typography and Alcohol Inks to create this quick personalized mugs. Perfect for gift giving and using up vinyl scraps.
Clean surface with alcohol, and apply the vinyl (I used 651)
Ink method varied.
On some I used a qtip, dipped in alcohol. Dripped 2-3 drops of ink on qtip and dabbed on, dabbing over edges to try to blend. Sometimes I’d press the qtip harder to squeeze out extra liquid then I’d blow on the liquid to spread it around.
On the she’s mine, I dabbed alcohol over the vinyl and then dripped the ink directly into the mug.
I just tried different combinations of alcohol and ink to see what would happen.
You can easily erase it all with alcohol if it messes up!
Dry until ink doesn’t look wet anymore (10-15 min) and remove the vinyl.
Some tutorials suggest triple thick
to seal.

How do you seal it so it doesn’t come off? I know how we did it on ceramic tiles, but that would not work with mugs
