I made 100 decals for a friend who is a local hip-hop artist. He ordered them in the colors he wanted and I made them for him. He sold out of them within a week!

Total Time: 4 hours
Yield: 100
Source: Hoodlum
Supplies:
2 ft red, blue, black, and white vinyl film.
machine plotter/film cutter
knife razor knife
card hard card
1 ruler 39" ruler
500 ft 12" masking tape
Steps:
I had to get the design, put it through a program that controls the plotter machine.
Once added into the system, I made the image more clear.
After that I put the vinyl film into the plotter and allowed the program to cut the designs out of the film.
Once complete, I pulled/cut the excess pieces of film out of the original design using a thin handled OLFA razor knife.
Then I applied the masking tape over the cut out designs using 12" medium stick masking tape, and used a hard card to flatten and seal the decals.

Finally I used the 39" ruler to cut straight and equal sized individual decals.
