Butterfly Accent
Designer: Kristen Swain

Supplies:

Car Accents Plum Crazy, Wild Blue Yonder and WhiteOut
Cricut Diecut Machine
Cricut Accent Essentials and Indy Art Cartridges.




Boat name decal
Designer: Sherry Wright

Supplies:


Glue Arts Car Accents (removable adhesive-backed vinyl decor sheets) in:
Wild Blue Yonder
Sterling Silver
Scissors
Sharpie (black)

Directions:
1. Begin by selecting your image. For this I printed out a shark from an on-line free coloring book image site.
2. I cut out the image and traced the outside body shape onto blue vinyl and cut out.
3. Next cut out individual parts (teeth, eye ect..) and cut out using coordinating vinyl.
4. Piece everything together by removing backing and adhering teeth, eye ect..
5. Outline and add black details with Sharpie.
6. For letters either trace and cut out or use die cut machine.
7. Once you have everything together clean window surface and adhere as shown.

** Great for any boat decals including names and ID numbers.
