  • To assemble the canvas, cut around the image with a pair of scissors.
  • Using the weeding tool, peel away the excess vinyl around the cut images and discard.
  • Cut a piece of transfer tape a bit larger than the size of the image.
  • Peel away the transfer tape backing and place the transfer tape overtop of the cut image. Gently rub the vinyl to help it stick to the transfer tape.

  • Position the image with the transfer tape on to the canvas and press in place.
  • Using the Cricut scraping tool, scrape the image onto the canvas on both sides to help it to stick to the canvas.
