VERY NICE DESIGN ON THIS... I HAVE A COUPLE ??? I HOPE YOU DON'T MIND.

HOW DID YOU OVERLAP THE RED ON BLACK, IS THERE A SPECIAL WAY TO DO THIS? ALSO, DID YOU USE ANY TYPE OF FINISH ON YOUR TILE AFTER PUTTING ON THE VINYL, LIKE A SPRAY?

DO YOU SELL WHAT YOU MAKE? IF SO, AND YOU DON'T MIND MY ASKING, WHAT DO YOU CHARGE FOR THIS SIZE?

THANKS FOR SHOWING US. GREAT JOB!

I cut the name out seperately. Then I used the clear contact paper and put it on over the team mom. For the baseball I used the Sports Mania Cartridge. My daughters team name was TNT so I cut that out in the red vinyl and put it on the baseball. I got the quote somewhere on the internet (its said volunteers, so I changed that to Team Mom). I did not use a spray over it. I bought the holder at Walmart for $3.00. Hope this helps you out. It was lots of fun and the team mom, coaches, and parents loved it. I have not sold any but I am hoping over the summer to have some for a craft fair.

I am having alot of trouble seperating my words from the contact paper. I don't have a very smooth tile I am working with, do you buy smooth ones? What could I be doing wrong on the word seperation. I have just about worn out my fingers with all the rubbing.

Thanks for your help.

Actually it was pretty easy. I bought the cheap transfer paper at Walmart (located with the shelf liner paper), I just used a credit card to rub it on also my fingers. Then I rolled it and peeled it away from the name. I haven't tried the transfer paper from Cricut.
