"The easiest way to get your stencil onto the vinyl is to cut a piece of vinyl that is about the size of where you want to put it. You're going to put your piece of paper that has your pattern on it, you can put it on the vinyl, or the vinyl on it, and then you're going to put another piece of vinyl on the back. So you're making a vinyl sandwich with your stencil. So this is the one piece of vinyl on the top, my piece of paper that has my graphic is underneath the top piece of vinyl, then there's another piece of vinyl on the back, and we take the paper off of the vinyl on the back, and then this one's going to go on this plate. So, we will just place it in the middle of a plate and cut off, smooth it. Now if you get edges, like on here, we have some of these edges sticking up, you can just cut them off or fold them over. Sometimes you might have a little bit of edging here that sticks out, we're going to cut that off and just trim it up to make it easier to work with is all we're going to do."
