Thank you so much! I have just started making things like this so I wanted a good way to package them to make sure customers are able to apply and use them easily. As you know with vinyl sometimes everything doesn't come up with the transfer tape 😊
Hi, I like your tutorial. I was looking to venture myself and sell decals I think is fun, I did take some notes out of your wisdom so thank you for that 😊
Excellent video, thank you so much! This was a huge help, I have been afraid of transfer tape, lol! I did buy some, but I am never sure I get the right stuff as everyone who does Cricut-ing does things (like car decals) a little differently. I genuine love your no-nonsense approach, it is wonderful! Thank you for sharing!
This is the first time that I have watched you and I have to say that I am now looking for more of your tutorials....EXCELLENT job bringing us information that makes sense....You've got me following and looking forward to more!
Thank you so much Donna, that means a lot to me! I love creating crafts and I love showing step by step how to create them, I am so happy you found me :). Happy Crafting
@@icreatecrafts8462 you're welcome. I'll play around with the decals I made with 2 colors and try to find a way to make them work so that it stays on the backing paper
I absolutely loved this video! It was easy to understand and so helpful! Just subscribed and can't wait to watch your tutorials. You are incredibly creative and talented! Thank you for sharing! ❤️❤️❤️
Thanks for the video. Santa is bringing me a Cricut this year, so I'm trying to get ahead on learning how to use it. Is it possible to add any design you want? Like pictures downloaded from the internet (for example logos from my favorite shows, etc.) 😁
I wish I could give you an award! That was such a sweet comment!!! Thank you im so excited to be growing, I hope to branch out more this year ;) once you start tou winter stop ☺
I always have the worst time with transfer tape not lifting the design up easily or not letting go of vinyl when applying it to the surface! Have you run into that at all? People always get them off easily to apply? I have tried Siser and cricut brand and just purchased an Amazon one to try for a larger decal for a sign
Good video. I watched your ones on those subjects. I bought a design off Etsy and it had a spelling error. Haha. I printed them too. Trying to learn to do it for our nonprofit rescue. Thanks.
Hi! Thank you so much for video - I love that you just get right to it and easily explain. I followed your suggestion and bought the vinyl you use - so easy to weed. love it! The issue I am having is that the transfer tape you suggest is not available for a whole month on amazon and i can't find it in stores anywhere. Do you know if any other transfer tape works? I have bought several over the last few days and nothing is lifting the image. Would love you have your link for the acrylic key chains your making. Thank you!
Sorry for the delay, I acutally changed my transfer tape, I now use YRYM HT Clear Vinyl Transfer Paper Tape Roll and its currently on sale on Amazon, here is the link in case you are interested. amzn.to/3Rhpieq. Good Luck, hope this helps. Here is the link to the acrylic key chains, amzn.to/467ap2e they are not sublimated, just put vinyl on it
I just watched your video. I don't have a ma by d to make stickers. Would it be ok to sauce it out. Did goh say you bought the stickers on Etsyy? I gave my logo can I name it into a sticker with text and sell then with different text thanks Leonie
I love the video. I’m just getting started with my cricut maker 3. But one thing I never see is when you make your decals what is the white paper that your printing your decals on?? Looks like a long sheet on the 12x24 mat? Please let me know what kind of white paper that is? Thank you in advance❤
Thanks for this.. I see you 9nky checked a corner to make sure its stuck but do you normally peel the entire thing and then lay it back down to be sure all.of its stuck to the transfer tape.
No I just make sure a little bit is. I'd hate to undo the whole thing. I'm just looking to see if it's sticking if it is the whole thing should be good 😉
You are a great teacher! One question - these are permanent I’m assuming. Do you say anything in the “how to” about how to remove it? Do you just recommend that they apply only to the window? Thank you!
Great question, it all depends on how I save them. It could be a print and cut or could be just a cut file. It all depends on how you wanna use it. And how you upload it to design space
Hi@@icreatecrafts8462and thank you for your reply. I have realised now what I was doing wrong. I was uploading a JPG so they were a cut and print. I should have been uploading the SVG. It was then a cut file.
After packaging the decals do you use anything to protect them from bending in the mail ? Not sure if i should add cardboard in the packaging or if its unnecessary ? Want to keep shipping down or be able to offer free shipping. Thanks 😊
Honestly, I’ve never had to ship them before I sell them in two stores to consignment stores and then I also sell them at my theater that I run in. But honestly, I probably would put a cardboard piece in between or write all over the envelope. do not bend, do not foldpost offices are pretty good at not bending things if you write stuff on it. Hope this helps. Thanks for watching.
I go store to store selling my products, I ask if they'd be interested in buying outright or if they would sell on consignment. 2 of the stores im in are just consignment shops which works great for me. I sell finished products not SVGs. Have you tried to sell on Design Bundles or etsy?
Thank you so much 🥰 I don't usually ship mine I sell at craft stores/consignment shops. But if I were to ship them I'd put cardboard in between them and the envelope that they don't bend 😉
Well thank you do much Debbie, I appreciate and love this comment. I try really hard to show and explain everything 😉 Hows the weather up there? I'm from WI
Thank you for sharing 😊 This was so easy to follow and understand … now for me to get my butt in gear !!!! I love to craft but don’t charge enough … can I ask how you price these ??? Thank you again 🥰
You're so welcome, I love crafting and sharing how to do things. I sell all of my decals for one price no matter how big or small because to me it's all the same work. I charge $8 each. Happy Crafting
So you can purchase sticker styles on Etsy and then resale them for yourself as stickers? Can you explain that process. I thought I had to make my own stickers to sell. Love the video thank you so much!
I purchase mine from Design Bundles where when you purchase the files you get the license to sell them. The answer is, no - what you've purchased from Font Bundles/Design Bundles IS the license! Hope this helps?
I love your tutorials! ❤️ Thank you for sharing your knowledge and tips with us. I’d love to see more of these decals videos, they’re amazing🌺 What colour vinyl did you use?
Oh my goodness 😳 😍 thank you so much for this beautiful comment ❤ I love creating videos and showing people how to create things, honestly my favorite is decals. Im working on another now for a decal 🥰 I use all sorts of colors. My new favorite is rose gold from teckwrap craft vinyl. Have a great crafting day 😀 thank you for the nice comment (keep them coming)
@@icreatecrafts8462 I look forward to watching them! I’ve been asked to do a couple of decals and I’ve been hesitant in making them, however after watching your video it has given me a little boost to just try it and not feel so intimated by it. Wishing you a wonderful crafting day as well. Keep creating!🌺
Hey Chris, I have tons of ideas and thoughts, I do have a ebook for sale that tells you tons of this information. I could go on and on about this, but if you want to start with my ebook, that will help me out to create more videos and help you with some tips :) Feel free to send me a email if you'd like to chat more. If your interested in my ebook, you can order one here: www.icreatecrafts.com/product/how-to-make-money-selling-crafts-ebook/
An easier way to do that would be to unroll the transfer tape with sticky side up, then lay the cutting mat with decals down on the decals, much easier. Than the parchment paper.
Loved your video ! I just got my maker this week and after getting in the decal I wanted to make I found the dang machine didn't work. Wha wha wha waaaaa so ordering another maker right away and trying again. How much do you sell these for ? They are great ! New subscriber too
Thanks for subscribing 😉 oh no your new machine didn't work? How upsetting I'm sorry to hear that...glad your trying again your going to have so much fun. I love my decals i sell mine for $8 each no matter what size. They sell out! Good luck
You're welcome :) I price all of my decals at the same price and they sell really well. Some people do it by size, there is a chart on Google, but I just do a flat fee of $8 each
That's the hardest part I believe. I tend to do the same. I sell my decals no matter how big or small for $8 each. They are great sellers for me. Hope this helps
I sell all my decals for $8, no matter the size (well anything under 8×8) the stores I sell in take care of organizing and setting up. I just create and bag up
I have tried three brands of transfer material and it just won't stick to the glitter vinyl. The worst is the more expensive. I am literally peeling the sticker off by fingernail and the small segments of letters and such are just sliding around on their backing and not adhering at all to the transfer tape. Do you have a suggestion video I have not found? Thank you so much! You make it look so easy. I have my specialty designs all lined up but I am just wasting vinyl and transfer tape at this stage. Thanks!
Awe, I'm sorry to hear this 😢 what brand are you using? There are different stickiness if that makes sense? I learned that the hard way. I don't work with glitter vinyl too often as I was having the same issue, and it wouldn't cut right. I was using Frisco transfer tape, but I switched to this kind (amzn.to/3PQP9bH) and ot 2orks better and is much cheaper. It's actually on sale right now. Can't say for sure that it'll work for what you need, but that's my thought. Good luck 👍
I just bought some of this brand per your previous recommendation. If it doesn't work, I will use the glitter for non-transfer type things, like magnets and stop trying the decals. Thanks again and I will report if I have better success with this tape.@@icreatecrafts8462
I like to know what does that say in your little paper to put with your car decals so I can have the same thing as yours I will appreciate it thank you Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year be safe and God bless you
Thank you for your purchase, I appreciate that. It's an instant download, it's right in purchase email you receive. Please let me know if you can't find it.
Hi, you do an awesome job explaining how to create decals. I am curious is Teckwrap UV "safe" or does it need to be protected? Have you had any issues with them or is there a better vinyl I should use?
Thank you so much ☺ to be honest I just started using the teckwrap vinyl. But its permanent vinyl so I don't expect any issues. I usually use 651 vinyl otherwise. Hope this helps?
Which Cricut machine do you recommend if all I will be making is Decals? I was thinking of getting the Explore Air 2 or would it be best to spend a little more and get the regular Maker?
Hey Bill, I started out with a Cricut explore, I only upgraded to the maker because my explore broke. I love my maker don't get me wrong but I don't use all the functions it offers. My biggest sellers are decals I could use my explore to create them all, I don't see a big difference honestly. Make some money creating decals then upgrade if you want. Hope this helps. Good luck and have fun
You're so welcome 😉 I just create them to what looks right or what size I'd like. I normally do them 5x5 or 8x8. You size them on how you'd like them to look and really how big the image or words are you want to be able to read them
I haven't yet...but if I would I put them into the packaging with a instruction slip then put a piece of cardboard in so it doesbt bend. I don't include removal instructions, guess I never thought of that. Hope this helps
Thank you. Sadly, my site was hacked and I need to start all over and create a new one. I do have it listed on etsy. www.etsy.com/listing/922642820/crafting-to-business-the-ultimate-guide?ref=share_v4_lx
What are the rules on copyrights? What are the laws on using a cricut image or an Etsy image that you’ve purchased to create items and sell them? I’m so afraid of getting into legal trouble.
If you buy from etsy or design bundles most of them, you're buying the rights to use and resell the finished product but not the files. Hope this hekps
Does it matter what vinyl you use for iron on, car decal, or stickers? I'm so confused. Is it all the same?? Also, how do you do the print and cut? Print to sticker paper and apply clear vinyl?
When I Create car decals I use anything permanent. I want it to stick forever and not fall off over time. Stickers are just sticky back printed paper. Print and cut is an amazing option. You basically push the flatten button and it will turn it into a print then cut option. I'm still learning this option myself. I hope this helps a little
Iron on is vinyl that you apply using heat. It is mainly used on clothing. For car decals, permanent adhesive vinyl is the ideal choice. And for stickers, you just print your design on a sticker paper. For the print then cut, you would print it on sticker paper, applying clear vinyl is optional as it only laminates the picture you print. And after printing you would line it up exactly on the mat as it is on the screen for the machine to cut it properly.
Hi there, The straight out of patience cut part way through under the straight wording and under patience. I had it attached and not sure why it did this. it also wants me to weed the straight lettering out.
How do you make it, so in the summer it doesn't stick to the backing? I've tried pre peeling before shipping, but that doesn't work. it's only happened a handful of times so I also can't figure out if the cause is because of the heat
@@ethelguayasamin6231 thank you so much. I do not..I sell on consignment so they get a 20% comission from each one I sell. I am currently in 3 stores and hope to expand this summer. I have sold my crafts out right to stores which was really great.
When doing decals like these, do you have to use a mat? I did some word ones and it worked, i tired doing an image and it said something about it couldnt find the lines
@@icreatecrafts8462 i figured it out, there was a place where you could change it back to a basic cut front print then cut.....its been a learning process. Tha k you though
Hi there Sue 😊 I sell mine for a flat fee of $8 each. No matter the size. I figure I do the same amount of work and put in the same amount if time so I charge the same. They sell great! Your welcome for the tutorial 😀 😊
Hi Jen-You said you sell your decals for $8 each. Is that the price the retailers sell them for? Or do they add their mark up to your $8? If they add their mark up, what do they retail your decals for? I agree with all. You do such a good job teaching. And right to the point. Thank you!
I think i found it off google, or i searched etsy for it...It just says how to clean and apply the decal... www.etsy.com/listing/545155219/apply-decal-svg-htv-wash-instructions?click_key=7f2550c1d48a99c7b0e25fef3c44fa207a270f43%3A545155219&click_sum=64141acb&ref=shop_home_recs_1&pro=1

Well, thank you so much, I appreciate that. I mark my creations on Facebook marketplace and add a few consignment stores.

What type of vinyl is that, it looks like shiny?
Will you be able to see the rose gold decal on a tinted car window?
You should because it goes on the outside of the car window

Love the instruction and attention to detail. May I ask how you package for shipping? Do you use chipboard and padded envelope?
Thank you so much 🥰 I don't usually ship mine I sell at craft stores/consignment shops. But if I were to ship them I'd put cardboard in between them and the envelope that they don't bend 😉
Enjoyed very much, you do such a great job. What finish of vinyl is that? Really like how that looks. Thanks

Do you have a suggestion video I have not found? Thank you so much! You make it look so easy. I have my specialty designs all lined up but I am just wasting vinyl and transfer tape at this stage. Thanks!
Awe, I'm sorry to hear this 😢 what brand are you using? There are different stickiness if that makes sense? I learned that the hard way. I don't work with glitter vinyl too often as I was having the same issue, and it wouldn't cut right. I was using Frisco transfer tape, but I switched to this kind (amzn.to/3PQP9bH) and ot 2orks better and is much cheaper. It's actually on sale right now. Can't say for sure that it'll work for what you need, but that's my thought. Good luck 👍
I just bought some of this brand per your previous recommendation. If it doesn't work, I will use the glitter for non-transfer type things, like magnets and stop trying the decals. Thanks again and I will report if I have better success with this tape.@@icreatecrafts8462
I like to know what does that say in your little paper to put with your car decals so I can have the same thing as yours I will appreciate it thank you Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year be safe and God bless you
Merry Christmas to you as well. Honestly I just found a saying on Google. I'll see if I can fond it
Hello I purchased your ebook? How long does it take to receive it? Thanks!
Thank you for your purchase, I appreciate that. It's an instant download, it's right in purchase email you receive. Please let me know if you can't find it.
Hi, you do an awesome job explaining how to create decals. I am curious is Teckwrap UV "safe" or does it need to be protected? Have you had any issues with them or is there a better vinyl I should use?
Thank you so much ☺ to be honest I just started using the teckwrap vinyl. But its permanent vinyl so I don't expect any issues. I usually use 651 vinyl otherwise. Hope this helps?
Which Cricut machine do you recommend if all I will be making is Decals? I was thinking of getting the Explore Air 2 or would it be best to spend a little more and get the regular Maker?
Hey Bill, I started out with a Cricut explore, I only upgraded to the maker because my explore broke. I love my maker don't get me wrong but I don't use all the functions it offers. My biggest sellers are decals I could use my explore to create them all, I don't see a big difference honestly. Make some money creating decals then upgrade if you want. Hope this helps. Good luck and have fun
Great video. TY
Your welcome. Happy Crafting 😊
Thank you so much for this! I do have a question how do you decide what sizes to use? I would love to make car decals bc I’m clueless on how to size.
You're so welcome 😉 I just create them to what looks right or what size I'd like. I normally do them 5x5 or 8x8. You size them on how you'd like them to look and really how big the image or words are you want to be able to read them
@@icreatecrafts8462 Thank you so much!!
How do you display them at the store?
That’s a great question. I actually beg them up really nice and then I have them in a basket.
Do you ever send them out via mail and if you do how do you package them? Also, do you ever include instructions on decal removal?
I haven't yet...but if I would I put them into the packaging with a instruction slip then put a piece of cardboard in so it doesbt bend. I don't include removal instructions, guess I never thought of that. Hope this helps
Love this video! Where can I purchase your decals? Can you provide a link?

Just ran into this video, but when i clicked on the link to your ebook it was a broken website link. Is there a new link where to get it?
Thank you. Sadly, my site was hacked and I need to start all over and create a new one. I do have it listed on etsy.

What are the rules on copyrights?
What are the laws on using a cricut image or an Etsy image that you’ve purchased to create items and sell them?
I’m so afraid of getting into legal trouble.
If you buy from etsy or design bundles most of them, you're buying the rights to use and resell the finished product but not the files. Hope this hekps
I need to now is shine part goes down or up?
For HTV shiny side always down ☺️
How do I get your tutorial on starting a business
I sell a ebook on my site Icreatecrafts.com 😉
Does it matter what vinyl you use for iron on, car decal, or stickers? I'm so confused. Is it all the same?? Also, how do you do the print and cut? Print to sticker paper and apply clear vinyl?
When I Create car decals I use anything permanent. I want it to stick forever and not fall off over time. Stickers are just sticky back printed paper. Print and cut is an amazing option. You basically push the flatten button and it will turn it into a print then cut option. I'm still learning this option myself. I hope this helps a little
Iron on is vinyl that you apply using heat. It is mainly used on clothing.
For car decals, permanent adhesive vinyl is the ideal choice.
And for stickers, you just print your design on a sticker paper.
For the print then cut, you would print it on sticker paper, applying clear vinyl is optional as it only laminates the picture you print. And after printing you would line it up exactly on the mat as it is on the screen for the machine to cut it properly.
Hi there, The straight out of patience cut part way through under the straight wording and under patience. I had it attached and not sure why it did this. it also wants me to weed the straight lettering out.
Hi there, maybe try welding instead of attaching? Sorry only thing I can think of
How much do you charge for decals and is rose gold permanent vinyl? And you put on window of vechicle?
I charge $8/decal. Yes, all of the vinyl I use is Permenant. Hope this helps thank you for watching
What kind of vinyl do you use for car decals?
Honestly anything besides removable vinyl. 651, teckwrap, anything I have in hand that's Permenant.
How do you make it, so in the summer it doesn't stick to the backing? I've tried pre peeling before shipping, but that doesn't work. it's only happened a handful of times so I also can't figure out if the cause is because of the heat
Sorry I have never had an issue with it sticking to the backing. What kind of transfer tape are you using?
I’m watching this thread cuz I need to know too. What kind of transfer tape do you use Jen?
Great video! How much do you charge for these?
Thank you I charge $8 for each one. I know others charge per inch but mines just one price
Hi there loved your video. Do you sell to stores at a discount?
@@ethelguayasamin6231 thank you so much. I do not..I sell on consignment so they get a 20% comission from each one I sell. I am currently in 3 stores and hope to expand this summer. I have sold my crafts out right to stores which was really great.
What stores do you sell at? Thank you.
I sell at 2 consignment stores around me. Previously I sold direct to stores, but I haven't created enough inventory to do that again yet.
Thank you!
When doing decals like these, do you have to use a mat? I did some word ones and it worked, i tired doing an image and it said something about it couldnt find the lines
I always have to use a mat. I don't have the newest cricut. Humm...
@@icreatecrafts8462 i figured it out, there was a place where you could change it back to a basic cut front print then cut.....its been a learning process. Tha k you though
How much do you sell your decal for? Loved your tutorial
Hi there Sue 😊 I sell mine for a flat fee of $8 each. No matter the size. I figure I do the same amount of work and put in the same amount if time so I charge the same. They sell great! Your welcome for the tutorial 😀 😊
Hi Jen-You said you sell your decals for $8 each. Is that the price the retailers sell them for? Or do they add their mark up to your $8? If they add their mark up, what do they retail your decals for? I agree with all. You do such a good job teaching. And right to the point. Thank you!
What does your how to card say? I would love to be able to include something like this with my decals
I think i found it off google, or i searched etsy for it...It just says how to clean and apply the decal... www.etsy.com/listing/545155219/apply-decal-svg-htv-wash-instructions?click_key=7f2550c1d48a99c7b0e25fef3c44fa207a270f43%3A545155219&click_sum=64141acb&ref=shop_home_recs_1&pro=1
