For my vinyl decal I first started with my idea of doing a Nike swoosh inside of another Nike swoosh. So first I started finding the Nike symbols and colors I was going to use. Once I had that done I then put them all on a illustrator document to get them printed. Now after I got all of the correct format and everything set up I went down to the printer and put in my first color which was black. Then I set up the decal printer and hit print. Now I repeated my steps for each color which I had 3. After I had all three down I need to get them together. So I used transfer tape to help me and I eventually got all three onto my biggest one the black one. After that to finish my decal I put it on the back of my computer at my house.

What I learned
I learned a lot about how to use a vinyl cuter and make a decal. This unit was probably one of hardest because we had not really used the vinyl cutter before this so it was a lot of learning. One challenge I had to overcome this unit was when I had to re-do my shapes because there was a glitch with printing them. This made me finish later than I had expected but, it still turned out the way I wanted it to.
