  • Cut a piece of transfer tape a tiny bit bigger than your design. Peel the tape off the backing of the transfer tape and lay it on top of the design. Use your scraper tool or brayer to rub over the top of your transfer tape, pushing the tape against the vinyl. Peel the transfer tape up, lifting your vinyl design away from the paper backing.
  • Select the first item you will be applying your vinyl design to. Carefully position and then lay the transfer tape onto the item where you would like the design to be. Run your scraper over the transfer tape, pushing the vinyl onto the item. Carefully peel away the transfer tape, leaving the design.
