It seems I'll be receiving a cutter in the coming weeks to support my business. I am familiar with basic procedures but I'd be very interested to know how cool stuff one can really make with using just a cutter and a heat press.

I saw some very nice garments a while back that were decorated by using this process and my hunger just grew from there on. I know it creates loads of new opportunities for decoration but I wanna see some examples! Anyone got any sites or links to some extremely cool vinyl work? Something that will blow my mind or showcase some brilliant ideas etc?

Where can I see the finest vinyl work ever made?

I should take more photos as we do a ton of vinyl work. Just a couple examples but nothing amazing.

Here's one I did last yr. I am at home and don't have access to most of my work as they are on my shop's computer.

How Do You Use More Than One Color When You Dealing With Vinyl?

theflowerboxx · February 24th, 2008

Cut it in layers occording to the colors, then apply the bottom layer first then the next layer and so on.

It helps also to print out a copy of the transfer you are going to do on the regular printer.. so you can tell what parts to weed on each color.. If its complex it can get confusing.. at least for me.. to weed it.. especially since its backwards.. Regular vinyl (sign vinyl) that is right read cut doesnt seem to confuse me as much..lol

plan b,
What method did you use to apply the top leadering on that last pic?

Love the those pics!

Roger will chime in soon....but I bet.....it is a rhinestone design..

plan b · February 24th, 2008

This shirt is a mixture of Rhinestones on top, the horse is silver metalic and the Stampede is gold glitter, all heat pressed, I prefer to do mix of materials as you get a better impact and you really can get a ton of money for these.

Here's what a little bit of searching this forum found:

I had not seen the "intricate designs" thread until today. That was a nice cut out.

Which Flock product did you use Rodney and am I looking at white Flock with a black backing, or black Flock with a white backing?

Hey, I consider this amazing as I have not achieved such a feat!

I'm not quite clear on how designs like the word "Kutsuju" are created so let's see if I can get a firm understanding today.

Did you use two separate colors of vinyl for the word "Kutsuju" (i.e., blue with black outline or red with white outline) or a special color vinyl product that has the outline color made into it?
