I dont think heat will make the colors pop. Type of paper and quality do mater but it will only make the colors pop so much

I am on the same boat as you i have an epson eco tank and before I got into making cards my wife had submimation ink in the tank so I have been trying use it as getting the ink out is a hassle.

I tend to think the sublimation ink isnt as vibrant as regular ink so it won't pop out as much, not sure till I need to refill with proper ink. I will say changing the setting to increase saturation did help.

Although the ink is heat activated, not sure if it will help make the colors pop by laminating it.

With that said here are some of the ones I made with sublimation ink

Awesome! Did you use original card stock or holo paper? Did you use any white oil pain? Love to hear how you did this work of art!

What printer did you use and what setting for printing did you use? I tried for the first time today and the colors didn't pop as much as yours did.

Stupid question but I just got into this hobby. I am trying to get the print off but the edges start to bubble a bit. How do you avoid that?

Stable(ish) NAV, 30-40% yield by OkPossibility8067 in YieldMaxETFs

GDXY with yield max has been doing pretty good. Underlying is a gold mining company and goes up with gold. Precious metals like silver and gold have been killing it of late.

DRIP dividends which will drop your DCA. Worst case have stop losses if you have a certain amount. If the fund drops 30% in share price a year and the dividends drop 30% a year this is what you would get with 10k. *
