 Hey guys, it's Jen from iCreateCrafts. In today's video, I will be showing you step-by-step how to create card decals I will leave all the supplies in the description below and as always if you have any questions Please leave them below and I will get back with you right away These were so much fun and so easy to create and only took a couple minutes to do these So stick along and I'll show you how to do it Hey guys, so I am so excited to show you this video It's going to be a quick and fast and easy tutorial for you guys So I am making card decals So I purchased these either from design bundles or Etsy and I will leave the links below in case you're interested in them I've made quite a few these are ready and I absolutely love how they turned out You can change them to any color you want any size you want the possibilities are endless, but they are so much fun So really the only thing with this first one with these ladies heads and with the mom life You can either choose to add this together with it or you can leave it alone So I have this this is just the head part and then I also purchased this one mom life separately So what I do is actually put them together like this and then I'll grab both of them and I'll align it Like that but sometimes I don't really like how it looks aligned So I'm just gonna pull it over a little bit So since I already have this file I'm gonna select this one and hit the duplicate button and I'm just gonna do another one over here But now I'm gonna finish this one up grab this and then attach it so that when it cuts out it will cut out as you see it So I'm gonna do the same thing with this one And if you wanted to change the color you can want to do that beforehand So I'm actually gonna make this one a holographic one. So just for the purposes of video I'm gonna turn change it to purple and then I'm gonna do this one as well just to purple Just because then when I cut it out I remember I wanted to do holographic so you can move this wherever you want it and again You can select both go to the align button and then center it But then I don't really think it looks too centered So I just move this over a little bit more and then the last thing to do is just select both and then push Attach and then that is how it's going to cut out. So all of these are done already I'm just gonna cut this one out in the holographic I think that looks pretty cool and then the last thing you want to do with this is just change the size It all depends on what you want it for Or where you want to put it I'm actually gonna be selling these So I'm gonna do a couple different sizes. I'm gonna do like four by four three by three kind of different sizes So just do that you want to select what you have click the unlock box up here And then you can change it to be whatever you want. So I'm just gonna do a four by four And it doesn't always have to be exact four by four. You can always just take the Four arrows and kind of pull it Like that so I'm gonna leave this one the way it is I'm gonna do the same thing with this one just unlock it and then change it to whatever you want So I'm gonna do four and a half By four and a half and we'll see what that looks like So that one looks good to me So I think I'm gonna do this one four and a half as well So just unlock it and then change it to whatever you want it to be And then just this last one really quick just to get it over with I Just like I'm all four and a half by four and a half. It looks pretty good that way I think I'm actually gonna change this one to be the same exact so when I Go ahead and cut them out and then I put a price on it I can price reference it with the size So these are done right now and then this one I thought was kind of funny My husband actually does this in a car in the car lot. So I think it's kind of funny He's sitting next to me. He doesn't think it's very funny But so yeah, the same thing with this one actually kind of like the size of it But I'm just gonna make it more even instead of the six point four by the three point seven I think I'm actually gonna change it to be like maybe six by four So I'll unlock it and then just change it to be a six by four It's just a little bit easier when you're cutting things out to have it a rounded size And then this one is ready attached So I don't have anything to do with this one and then this one I've found on Etsy I believe so I will leave the link below to this and I think I'm gonna do the same thing four and a half by four and a Half but again, you can change it to whatever size you want Whatever you're going to be putting it on you can change it to be whatever it is This one does come out as one whole piece So unfortunately, you can't change the skull color with the words here. So I'm actually gonna just do Black and white with these I'm gonna duplicate this. I select this. I'm gonna put the duplicate button I'm gonna do one black and then I'm gonna do one white. So I'm just gonna go up here Computers going slow Here we go and I'm gonna go up here to the color box and I'm just gonna change this to white So I want one to cut out black one to cut out white and then I do the same thing with this one I'm gonna duplicate this one and then just do the same thing. I'm gonna do one black and then one white and Then for whatever color you want these like I said, I'm gonna do this one holographic I think I'm actually gonna do another one holographic. So I'm gonna change it to purple So that I know that when it comes to the purple ones, I'm gonna use holographic and then I think I'm actually gonna change this to be white Just to make it a lot easier with just the colors we have here So everything is finished. They're all resized or colored the way I want it to be the next thing you want to do is just go To make it Then it's gonna show it to you what it looks like on here What I like to do is just spread them out a little bit so I can take my Scissors and cut in between and then also if your vinyl has grids on the back I would suggest going and putting them directly on the grid Just if you're gonna sell these it makes it look a little bit nicer if you have the the lines behind it I'm actually gonna pull this down a little bit further so I can have a little bit more extra room in between them So when I cut it out, I can have the nice grid paper on the on the back So I'm gonna do the same thing with these ones a little bit harder to see but again Just moving them apart and then able to use the grid behind it Same thing here. You don't have to do this But again, it just makes it look nicer if you have the grid paper So I'm gonna push continue one last time It's connecting to a my maker machine that I have and then I'll show you which setting that I use Okay, here's so here's my base materials when I'm using just regular stencil vinyl This is what I use here the stencil vinyl one if I'm using like the heat transfer one I always use this one heat transfer non-cricut. It's just what works for me really well so I'm going to actually be using this one the stencil vinyl one here and then you want to make sure you have a very sharp fine point blade in and then you put your Vinyl on your mat and then what I like to do is use my scraper and actually scrape my vinyl down really well on my mat Just kind of helps adhere it better So I'm gonna go ahead and cut all three of these out and then I will show you what it looks like And if you're interested in any of the vinyl I use I will leave that down below as well I'm using new holographic vinyl and this is going to be the first time I'm using it I got it from a new company So I'll let you guys know how it works and where I got it from but I'm gonna finish this up I'll weed it out and then I'll show you what the next step is Okay, so I said I was gonna skip this process But I had a couple of you ask how I do the weeding process so you can skip forward if you know how to do this already But I'm just gonna show you I don't know how well it shows up right now. My lighting in here is not the best I'm sorry But this is the new Vinyl that I received from a company and I'm going to leave the link below and show you how it weeds and all that I will be honest with you when I cut my stuff out I forgot to transfer or change the settings to Holographic so please make sure you do that I had on regular vinyl and it did not cut all the way through so I had to go back and do a second cut So here it is here. I really love the color of this vinyl. I really wish it would show up better I'm gonna show you what they sent me and I'm gonna be honest with you and show you how it well it weeds I've never used this before I've used holographic in the past and I've done really well These are some of the ones that I already made before So this is the mom life one and then this is the help dad far. Oh, I'm missing that. Oh my gosh guys I'm missing that fun there. So I have to go back and get that one But it says help dad forward. We can't get out. I thought that was really cute But I did not realize I was missing that so I have to go back and cut that and then another mom life one Just in white so I have a few of these cut out already and I wanted to show you I've never used this I actually found it in my stash. It's just like a cutting Board on here basically so this is let's see the fiskers kind I know that cricket sells these but I actually totally forgot about this until I looked in my stash And I'm like, oh my gosh, I'm gonna try it So it's gonna be a lot easier cutting this out rather than using the scissors and trying to figure it out So I'm just going to lay this in here And I'm gonna try to show you the best way that I can with the video my setup in here is not Perfect yet. So I'm hoping you guys can see this. I'm just actually change the Thing quick here Maybe this way you guys can see a little better. Don't mind my mess back here. Please please ignore that So I'm just put it in here and there's a little line here where you can see where it's gonna cut So I'm trying to save some of the vinyl I don't want to have a whole bunch of vinyl overlapping and I want to make sure there's enough on the end that we can Put the transfer tape over it and let the people put it on there So again, I'm going with the line here. I've never used this before. I'm actually really excited to see how it cuts out So I'm just gonna take it and pull it Go again, and it seems like you cut really well. So fingers crossed we will see. Oh My gosh. Yay. Okay, so that actually did really amazing rather than using my scissors and trying to figure out where to go Because like I said before some of them have a good paper in the back Some of them don't this one does not so I would have had a heck of a time with the scissors trying to figure out Where the center was so now I can just make another cut and Do the same thing so I'm just going in the middle now and I'm gonna use the grid on the Cutter itself to make sure it's nice and straight Wow guys, this is amazing I'm gonna find this for you and I'm gonna leave a link below and I do again This isn't the cricket brand so it might be a little bit cheaper But I've had this for so long and I totally forgot about it. So Wow that is so much easier and it definitely works out a lot better So here's this one and then here's this one and I can also go on here and cut this a little bit of vinyl off But I'm just gonna leave it the way it is and then I will show you the weeding process I hope you guys can see this on camera a little bit better But I'm just going to weed this out So the way that I do it is I buy these cheap little weeders from Harbor Freight rather than buying the cricket brand If you guys watch my channel, you know, I hate the cricket brand I'm sorry. The only thing I like about cricket is their machines. I'm gonna move this again really quick. Sorry There might be a little bit easier for you to see what I'm doing. But again, I bought these at Harbor Freight I think it was 2.99 and you got six of them and they come in different Pieces I like the ones that have a little hook on it makes a little bit easier So I'm just gonna show you really quick So I'm just grabbing an edge up at the top here and then I'm just pulling it back again You guys probably know how to do this already But just for those of you who are new and you're not sure how to do it. This is how I do it So I just start with the outer pieces first Making sure I get all the pieces Sorry, I'm trying really hard to stand in camera range here It's hard for me to see and do this at the same time. I gotta get my little other office space back But there so I have this this obviously you're just gonna throw out You're not going to use this anymore and then you want to go in with your little weeder and then you can pull off All of the extra access. Oh my gosh. I said access guys. Oh my goodness I need to go to bed access So you just go in and take off the excess stuff that's in here and then you just want to go in and Find all the little spots. I know people have like little Garbage cans and little things that stick on your fingers and stuff to use these I just use my fingers and I grab the pieces when I pull them up and I just put them right in my finger I don't see a use for extra money being spent maybe and The future I'll do it. But as of right now, I just am used to just using my finger Just like that. I don't know what you guys think you have something to take stuff off like this So should I invest in something? I don't know. So here is what it looks like so far Then I'm just gonna keep going in. I don't know if it shows up well on camera But there's just little pieces here. So I'm just taking out all these little tiny pieces and leaving everything else behind Like I said, this is a new vinyl to me. I've never used this holographic vinyl. I really love it I'm being honest with you if I didn't like it. I would be honest with you guys and tell you I didn't like it I'm actually going on my computer. I'm gonna see what the name was called really quick But I've never used this company before they sent me some and I really really do like it. So it's called HTV I guess it's called HTV runt HTV r-o-n-t vinyl Kind of a different name, but yeah, I really like this stuff Like I said, I will be I will always be honest with you guys if I like something if I don't like something if it works Really well, this is weeding really really well this I love this vinyl. I would definitely highly recommend this company This is the first time I'm using their vinyl, but I really do love it It seems to be you know, it's weeding it really really well here and it seems to be really good quality as well So I will leave the link in case you're interested in this below But I just wanted to show you guys really quick the weeding process of it It's kind of weird my finger here, but like I said, I don't use a lot of extra things I just use whatever I have on hands, but so far so good. It's working out really well Just gonna take one of these bigger pieces off here, but again, this is weeding absolutely amazing I love this stuff. I'm definitely gonna go back again And like I said, they gave me so many colors to choose from and it's not expensive at all So I will leave the link below and I'm gonna finish this up I just have a few pieces in the glasses here that I'm gonna finish up I don't think I have one that has glasses, but here's the other mom one that I did and Here's another HD up here. It is here's the glasses. So it's gonna look like this It's just gonna be little pieces in the middle here But I love this stuff. So I'm gonna finish this one up You guys know how to do this now. So this is a weeding process if I missed anything else that you guys want to see Please let me know I did get a comment from somebody saying, you know, you say your step by step But you left the weeding out. So I apologize for that. I didn't realize that people wanted to watch me weed But this is how you do it And if you know how to do it, please fast-forward it and go to the next step But I'm having a lot of fun with this and after I'm done with this I'm gonna actually do another video showing you how to package these if you want to sell them So that's gonna be a whole new video You want to stay tuned for that because these are really really great sellers? I'm gonna go ahead and put Some transfer tape on here bear with me one second So I have this dollar store transfer tape which works amazing But lately I've been seeing that when I pull it off. It has some sort of weird residue on it So I'm gonna show you hang on one second So I bought a huge roll of transfer tape. I'm trying to show you guys here We go it was huge and this is such great transfer tape. It doesn't have the backing lining on it So once you put it down, that's it and it also doesn't have the grids on it Which I kind of like to be honest with you. So I'm just gonna go ahead actually I'll show you So I'm just gonna take some off here So move my stuff over and I'm gonna work with this first one So all I'm gonna do whoops and then guys I see one little piece here I forgot kind of jump in the gun getting all excited to show you about all this stuff And I forgot one little piece here. There we go. So all done perfect. So and then I'm just gonna take my transfer tape and Just go right over it And then I could take that nifty little Cutter thing again. I'm sorry. I'm so close guys This is not the best place for me to be doing a video But I wanted to show you guys step-by-step what it looks like So now I'm just gonna take my scissors and I'm gonna follow the line Where I had it before where I already cut it so I can go right on the edge and then I'll get a really good nice straight line Yep, so just like that So that's how I do my transfer tape. Then I'm just gonna take a squeegee Which I have one right here And just imagine it's all cut all cut around the edges, right? So I'm just gonna take my squeegee And rub it in really really well just like this That's all you have to do and make sure you get all the bubbles out make sure it's nice and sticky to it Right, so I'm finished with these decals. Here's this one help dad find it See I put the f in here so I fixed it and then this is the other Holographic one and another holographic and then this one you're probably not gonna see too well But this is the best Something husband ever I'm not saying that So I thought these are really cute and I just want to show you so here is the Backing on it So you just want to make sure that when you are going to sell this if you are that you just want to squeegee it really well So that the vinyl goes on to the transfer tape, but I just wanted to show you that's what they look like when they are finished I have a whole bunch of them finished But for the next segment the next video I'm going to be doing is I'm gonna show you how to package these So I put these in a bag that I bought from Amazon I put my little business card in here and then also how to apply your decal So then I have the other part in here. Here is the mom life one And then I also did some other smaller ones But I think I'm gonna get a smaller bag for these ones So here's the little one that goes on your car. I'm like you can put like on your Gas can area, but then again here's how to apply a decal and then I also put my Business card in here in case someone wants it, but that is gonna be the next video I'm gonna show you guys how to create these they are so simple to make but I used a whole bunch of different colors of it Just to make it kind of fun putting it into the bag. So again here is the last part I really love how these turned out. So you can't really see that one too. Well, but I'm definitely going to be making more I'm gonna be putting these in the two stores that I'm in and also putting it on my blog as well I create crafts comm so if you're interested in any of these or you need help with anything Please let me know give me a thumbs up and hit the subscribe button if you like this video I really hope it helps you out.
