Excellent
I felt compelled to leave this review so it will help someone. I'm a novice crafter who purchased a Cricut Explore Air on a whim. Lots of trial and error on my part through the learning process-which equates to lots of wasted vinyl-and me being extremely picky on what I purchase due to price/quality because vinyl is just not cheap. So, with that said - I found this vinyl to be absolutely perfect. It weeded like a dream (and this was before I discovered a weeding hook) - I actually used it, first, on a pair of shoes for my daughter, on our first trip to Disneyland. It ironed onto them like a dream - and the glitter did not shed. It's a thicker vinyl - I believe I had to dial up to the light cardstock setting to cut it good. It adhered extremely well to the rough fabric of the shoes and when I layered the colors.My only grips are:It's pricey (but worth it)It doesn't come in an assortment package.I'm currently in the market for a glitter HTV assortment package and hate that Kate's doesn't offer one. I'm making Christmas gifts and have been annoyed with the reviews that have been guiding me whether or not to purchase a specific set (as the good ones are all people who received free products), so that's what compelled me to write my review! Just know that this is good quality vinyl and you will be happy with it :)I have purchased the 3 pack in both the Pink and Gold - and there was no variation in quality with the different colors. Happy Holidays everyone!-------Edit-------I subtracted a star as I had ordered the Black/Gold color for the attached project I was making. This was impossible to weed with lettering! I wasted at least a sheet and a half and no matter how thick the lettering, it ripped when weeding. I was making the bag that I uploaded a picture of and ended up having to use plain black (other brand) vinyl. The castle/Tinkerbelle's stars weeded great. It was almost as though this vinyl was thinner than the colors I had purchased in the past. Anyway, be very leery if you are wanting to do more intricate designs with this. Ironing was a breeze as well, though.

Great Bang for Your Buck!
This product is worth the money. I've tried the cricut brand transfer vinyl and now after trying this I will never go back. Not only does this product exceed my expectations, but it comes in a cardboard sleeve that will keep the vinyl from being damaged and I use these sleeves to store my vinyl. The color is true to the photo and the glitter does not come off easily. I used this product to personalize a beach bag and I've received so many compliments about the design. The glitter made it through the sun, sand, being sprayed off, and having a toddler try to peel it off and guess what it didn't budge.Cutting:Do your research when using Heat Transfer Vinyl (HTV) and don't make the same mistakes as I did. When you go to cut this product turn it upside down and be sure to select a mirror option if you are using a cricut or silhouette. I would like to note that the glitter does not come off unless you start scraping it, so if that's a concern be aware that there is barely any fall out of glitter.Application:After I I cut my design with my cricut, while the product is turned on its back and used my weeding tool to pull up around the edges of design. This will leave the design attached to the clear transfer and remove any excess material that was not used. Next you will take your design while it's attached to the clear transfer and place it on whatever material you are wanting to adhere it to. I used freezer paper and placed it over the clear transfer, then heated my iron up to medium heat and pressed over the freezer paper constantly moving the iron around in a circular motion. When you go to peel this product back and if you see the vinyl is not sticking properly then slowly lay it back down and apply more heat.

Worked well for me...1st time using Glitter HTV
This was my first time using HTV. "Grass" is a great 'crayon' basic green leaning more yellow than blue. I used my Silhouette to cut a fairly intricate Celtic clover for a cotton black T. It cut beautifully, weeded easily and went on the shirt using a household iron on the highest setting. I used a piece of parchment paper to act as a teflon sheet between the transfer backing and the iron. I've washed the shirt, inside out twice, hanged to dry, no issues with peeling so far.There were no instructions on what settings for what machine. I looked online and found a few references to Glitter HTV in general. here is what I did.New blade on Silhouette Cameo, *no cutting mat*, cut smooth/glittery side DOWN - dull back side up, settings per Brad Martin Youtube "Cameo Cutter - Cutting Out Glitter Heat Transfer Letters" @ 4:07. Blade 3, Speed 5, Thickness 10, Double cut.More experienced crafters may have different settings, but no reviews here mentioned them.e.g. [...]says Blade 4, speed 4, thickness 18 (no double cut)

Very hard to weed.

Glitch!
This has to be the best glitter vinyl I have used. So happy with the end results. Cut with more pressure and it weds so easy.

Worth the $$
I bought this vinyl to make shirts with. I was expecting the vinyl to be hard to work with, but it was surprisingly easy to work with. It cut and weeded great. It also ironed onto the shirts effortlessly. This is a great buy.

Beautiful, but I suggest double cutting.
I really love this glitter vinyl! It is beautiful and has just the right amount of sparkles and shine. I found that even cutting how my silhouette tells me to cut (what setting on my blade, speed, etc..) that it is VERY hard to weed the excess vinyl. I ruined an entire sheet since I was weeding in areas that I needed to keep. My second time around I let my silhouette cut and release and then cut it again on the same setting and it was super easy to peel away the excess. It goes down very well with heat and has made it through many washes with no issue!
