How Do I Make a Multi Color Cricut Decal?

Making a multi-color Cricut decal is a fun, easy and inexpensive way to spruce up any item. It can be used to add a personal touch to cards, clothing, home decor, and more! With the right supplies and a little bit of creativity, anyone can make their own unique and colorful Cricut decals.

The first step in creating your multi-color Cricut decal is to gather all of the supplies you need. You will need some special permanent adhesive vinyl, transfer tape, scissors or an X-acto knife, a cutting machine (Cricut Explore Air 2 or Maker), Cricut Design Space software, and some sort of surface for your decal – like a t-shirt or mug.

Once you have all of your supplies ready to go, it’s time to get creative! Start by selecting the colors you want to use for your design. Using the Design Space software on your computer or mobile device, create your design with multiple colors. You can use shapes or text – it’s totally up to you!

After you’ve created your design in Design Space, it’s time to cut it out. Load up each color of permanent adhesive vinyl onto your cutting mat one at a time and cut them out according to the instructions in Design Space.

Once all of the pieces have been cut out from their respective colors of vinyl, peel them off from the cutting mat and place them onto transfer tape. Arrange them so that they match up with how you designed them in Design Space. Be sure that when placing each piece onto the transfer tape that they are sticking together firmly.

After your design has been arranged onto the transfer tape, carefully peel off the backing from the transfer tape and place it onto whatever surface you are using for your decal – like a t-shirt or mug. Smooth out any air bubbles with an old credit card or scraper tool if necessary.

Finally, once everything is in place on your surface item – grab an iron or heat press (if you have one) and press down firmly for about 15 seconds on each section of vinyl.

And there you have it! Your very own multi-color Cricut Decal!
