Ok guys I promised Jb I would post some pics once my cutter came in so I'm owning up.....(yes I heard the bad news..very sad)
These are my 2nd and 3rd stickers cut (haven't had much time to play lately) for a local baseball team.
Also I would like to know what brand is the best banner to buy, and from where. Beacongraphics and Signwarehouse has banners but I just can't make up my mind on which to buy. Same question with magnets I would like to purchase some blank magnets and acrylic license plates as well. Thanks
Nut MOnkey , those look great,,
so that is stickers printed or vinyl, or what?
I love it, just tell me how you did, it,,
Nut monkey did you say you had flexi?
Thanks a lot! both are vinyl, one is just white vinyl and the other is just layered vinyl it was kinda a practice cut to make sure it looked ok in those colors. Yeah I used flexi and just cut one color at a time thats it. Thanks again
how hard was it to get the vinyl on top of each other.? do the layers just stick to each other?
Are you designing in flexi or corel , illustrator and then sending to flexi? Is is Flexi 8, did you get it from us cutter?
Wow the question marks lol I may have cheated a little (registration points) when layering the vinyl but it was pretty easy. I'm designing in corel and exporting to .ai (adobe illustrator v8) then opening (not importing) to Flexi. It all works out pretty good I think, yes I got the cutter from uscutters via ebay.
Ive got the same cutter as you, and i also bought it from ebay, been working solid for 4 yrs now. no problem with the cutter at all. and great price too.
about the banners: ive had WONDERFUL experience with a place called sugarhouse banners. easy to find the site & im not affiliated with them at all. they have a simple calculator on the site and the its cheap, great quality and ships fast. once i found them i havent used anyone else.
good luck.
Thanks guys/gals for the compliments, and it makes me feel better that Allender has had the same cutter for 4 yrs now. I feel guilty for paying so little for it I guess I am scared it wont last long lol.
Blingqueen yeah these will be car decals for parents of a baseball team, I think they are gonna get me to make a banner as well.
Allender I will check that place out, are their banners really good material and hold vinyl pretty well?

Excellent job on those. Another way you can do it is simply copy it from Draw and paste it into Flexi. No need in even exporting or saving it from Draw.
Yeah Flowerboxx I have copied from draw and pasted into flexi the only thing is on a few of them it was missing a few lines, but everytime I export then open the exported file in flexi it works.
First stickers (pics) and a question. 
great job on the layering.
