Tips for Making This Hocus Pocus Starbucks Cup Idea
Are you a newbie to the Cricut? And you might be scared to use the machine- no worries, we got you- Check out 22 Tips and Hacks for New Cricut Users because it walks you through so many fantastic tips.
Don’t be scared of layering; this is super easy to do with this project. Here are some tips for layering.
- Cut all of your vinyl pieces first, weed, then have all your pieces ready to go so you can just layer at one time.
- Use clear transfer paper if possible- it makes the layering process so easy.
- It’s easier to layer on a flat surface by the way.
- Then you can transfer the entire layered image to your cup (or whatever object).
- Work slowly and be patient with yourself- and please don’t pick a hard layering project for your first time. This project is pretty easy.
- A vinyl scraper is a must-have tool when layering. It also helps with air bubbles. If you don’t have a vinyl scraper or can’t find it- try your credit card that works too.
Please read the instructions below for the full details on how to create your Hocus Pocus Starbucks cup. Also, the best way to keep your cup looking like new is by hand washing it.

Tools

Instructions
- Upload design into design space. Place the light tan sheet on the blue cutting mat. Select the skin faces and turn off the rest. Cut and weed.
- Place the yellow sheet on the cutting mat. Select the yellow hair and turn off the rest. Cut and weed.
- Place the orange vinyl on the cutting mat. Select the orange hair and lips. Turn off the rest. Cut and weed.
- Place the purple vinyl on the cutting mat. Select the purple cauldron and turn off the rest. Cut and weed.
- Place the green vinyl on the cutting mat. Select the green potion and turn off the rest. Cut and weed.
- Using the transfer tape place the tape over the light tan design and scrape with scraper tool. Peel back slowly making sure the design sticks. Place this on the purple weeded design. Line up with the Starbucks logo on the cup. You can see it through the white paper backing.
- Now layer on the orange hair and lips along with the yellow hair. Do this buy using the transfer tape. Be careful not to get the transfer tape on other items as it may lift. The smaller things like lips I usually use the weeding tool and place them on without transfer tape.
- Repeat the layering process for each color and design. Once you have them all together then use transfer tape on the entire image. Scrape well and peel back slowly making sure all is attached. Then line the design up with the starbucks logo. Press down in the middle then work your way outward with the scraper tool. Once it is flat peel back slowly making sure the design adheres to the cup. Press down with your finger on all of the design once you have it attached making sure no spots are lifted.
PLEASE NOTE this cup is hand wash only!
