Beautiful but difficult to use
Beautiful but pricy. Had difficulty cutting with my cricut despite chnaging pressure settings, very hard to see where to weed and it refused to stick to even the strong grip transfer tape. I had to use painters tape to transfer my image. Wasted most of the vinyl in the first few attempts.

Vinyl
This is by far the worse vinyl I have ever used. Will not cut with regular blade. Use deep blade cuts thru most of the backing. Hard to weed and will not stick to intended object. Suppose to be water resistant It resistant to everything. Won't buy again

Roll was damaged on arrival (no damage to shipping package)
It was the perfect color for my project but it arrived damaged. I needed it for a time sensitive project so used it anyway but the first 2 inches widthwise every 3-5 inches was unusable due to a heavy crease that looked like something had cut through it. Very disatisfied but didn't return it because I needed it for a project right away. The vinyl itself was very difficult to work with, thin and flimsy but not very flexible and I ended up having to purchase a better quality vinyl after trying to make this one work.

NO GOOD if you can't cut & weed
I should've read the reviews before I purchased. I bought this b/c of the shimmer & I thought it was vinyl but it's not. It's more like a sticker, mylar material. I've tried using several different types on my cricut air explorer 2 to cut & just won't cut through enough to weed. Not to mention, the black is EXTREMELY hard to see where you cut b/c of the shimmer. Its a shame b/c the colors or so pretty, but no good if you can't weed without tearing & stretching & apply design to your product. I'm going to try one more type. If it doesn't work, I'll be returning b/c it will prove useless for me.

Don’t buy this, it’s terrible
Awful product, do not buy. No matter what setting I used it wouldn’t cut through, even with multiple cuts. It’s sad because it is beautiful, but a waste of money.

👎🏼 nope
I would not recommend. I’m not new at this either. I’m very experienced with my cricut machine and settings. I’ve tried multiple ways and it still cut. My blade is new too. I did read the reviews and thought “well maybe they just didn’t adjust the settings” but it’s the product. Waste of money. It would be good for thick decals but not anything thin.

Awful
This stuff is awful! It’s difficult to cut, difficult to weed, then doesn’t adhere to transfer paper at all. Transfer paper pulled up a layer of the background sheet/carrier sheet (see second photo) without moving the actual vinyl. I’ve used glitter vinyl before, so not all of them are dysfunctional. Very disappointing, do NOT buy.

Not easy use.
The media could not be loaded. Makes beautiful designs. However it’s extremely difficult to use. I have a cricut explore air 2. It took me 2-3 tries just to get it to cut correctly. I ended up having to use light cardstock setting to finally get it cut. I was so excited that i finally figured it out but then was quickly disappointed again because it will not transfer to transfer tape no matter how hard I try. So frustrating and such a waste of money. Wouldn’t recommend.

Beautiful but horrible
It's beautiful but my god is it hard to work with! I have a cricut and saw a review on here that said to cut on "light cardstock" setting which worked. Weeding was easy but it didn't stick to transfer paper no matter how hard I tried. Had to balance the vinyl on to transfer paper and then stick it on.

Finally figured out to actually use it!!
So first of all this vinyl is beautiful & its soooo sparkly......BUT it was a nightmare to cut and generally to work with. After a LOT of trail and error, I have figured out how to cut and use this vinyl.If you have a Cricut, use the cardstock Intricate on the default pressure setting. ( I also used a fresh blade)Regular transfer tape will NOT work, I had to purchase Cricut Strong grip transfer tape (could only find the Cricut Joy one at a reasonable price. I had already accidently put two rolls of this vinyl in my basket and purchased so i was determined to get it to work.It cut like a dream, and it stuck to the transfer tape instantly!Good luck!

Awful-Save your money
I wish i'd read the reviews before purchasing. Not only is this stuff the worst ever to cut (If using a cricut, you need to cut it on light cardstock) but the sticky is practically non existent. Its more like a removable sticker than actual vinyl.Used a whole sheet and have a bunch left that are no good for anything now! Save your money and look at purchasing from MDP supplies, crafty cutters or GM crafts. Think i'll go back to what i know works...

Like wallpaper
Have tried using this with my cricut but it won't cut. I've just read to try in on light Chardstock setting, wish I'd know that rather than wasting so much. It should come with instructions. Will update if I get it to work. Lovely colour and glitter though, doesn't appear to shed.

Needs to be cut on light cardstock.
Took ages to cut, as didn't realise until I saw on these reviews how to cut.The transfer paper was only able to be used once, so I have a load of glitter vinyl that I need to buy stronger adhesive paper for.Not impressed.
