Ok - it's been a long day and I struggled with a descriptive subject line. Is there a way to cut a Word (i.e. LOVE) using Vinyl and have it all be in
a format where I could peel and stick on a wall. Right now, I do cut vinyl, have to cut each letter "L" then "O" then "V" then "E" and remove each
letter and stick on a wall - trying my best to 'line it all up and be straight. If you're aware of Uppercase Living they ship you a 'sheet' of your word and
you simply 'rub the vinyl' onto a wall...it's automatically straight. Since the Cricut cuts the letters in a straight line - wondering if there's some
method where I could do what I described above...I'm just not thinking of any way to do that. Thanks for any tips!

Cutting Words (vinyl) on a 'sheet'
Re: Cutting Words (vinyl) on a 'sheet'
You can use clear contact paper. Cut out your letters in vinyl and pull off the negative part/the part you aren't using and leave just the letters. Then cut a piece of contact paper and pull off the back paper. Stick the clear contact paper over top and rub on top of the lettering. Once you do this you should be able to pull off the clear contact paper and it will pull off the vinyl in a straight line if that is how you cut it. Then you can replace the backing until you are ready to use it. Once ready, you peel off the backing and put it on your wall and rub off the vinyl onto the wall.
If you have anymore questions let me know. Clear contact paper is available at walmart in the kitchen section.

You can also use painter's tape or cricut even makes something called transfer tape. I've found it VERY useful myself.
