In the past I&#8217;ve used smart vinyl to <a href=\"https:\/\/mypoppet.com.au\/makes\/leopard-print-bag-makeover-with-cricut-joy\/\">update a bag with leopard print<\/a>, but any regular vinyl can be cut on the Joy using a cutting mat.<\/p>\n<p>The stylized pomegranate design can be found on Cricut design space.

Position first layer (dark red) of design onto front of shoes. The backing film is slightly adhesive so it should stay put, but you can add some washi tape or masking tape to secure if you need to.<\/p>\n<p>12. <strong>Cover with non-stick baking paper<\/strong> and press with iron for about 15 sec with constant movement and light pressure. Check that design is adhering, and peel backing while still warm.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Note:<\/strong> I used a regular iron to press my design and it was set way too high the first time which melted the backing sheet. You may need to do a test run with some vinyl scraps to check the temperature is correct before you work on your main project. Too much heat and you will melt your vinyl, too little and the vinyl won&#8217;t stick.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-62212\" src=\"https:\/\/mypoppet.com.au\/makes\/mp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/pomergranate-espadrilles_9.jpg\" alt=\"Iron on Vinyl Shoe makeover - pomegranate espadrilles\" width=\"690\" height=\"493\" srcset=\"https:\/\/mypoppet.com.au\/makes\/mp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/pomergranate-espadrilles_9.jpg 690w, https:\/\/mypoppet.com.au\/makes\/mp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/pomergranate-espadrilles_9-300x214.jpg 300w, https:\/\/mypoppet.com.au\/makes\/mp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/pomergranate-espadrilles_9-600x429.jpg 600w, https:\/\/mypoppet.com.au\/makes\/mp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/pomergranate-espadrilles_9-330x236.jpg 330w, https:\/\/mypoppet.com.au\/makes\/mp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/pomergranate-espadrilles_9-644x460.jpg 644w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 690px) 100vw, 690px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>13.
