    Step 2:
    Bring in SVG design Lucky Irish into your design space. Add registration marks by drawing a square at the top of one side of design, then copy and bring over to other side and align. The registration marks will help when layering of the two colors of vinyl to align when creating into one decal.  Resize cut design to approximately 4” x 4.5”. Prepare your two colors of vinyl to cut designs. Cut design. Refer to design for colors. When cutting of the second color vinyl make sure the registration marks stay in the same position. Weed designs for a decal.

    Step 3:
    Position transfer tape to cover the cut horseshoe/ Irish weeded design. As this is the design you want to layer with the other cut design to create the one decal. Use your scraper if needed. Carefully remove the adhesive backing to expose the registration marks. Trim that piece of excess back paper. Match up the registration marks to the other cut design and slowly peel back paper over that design. You now have a layered two color vinyl decal.
