Highlight the word along with the leaf art together and select “attach” to join the separate images. Do this with the word “family” as well.
Adjust the color of the words along with the leaf art to white and maintain the other words in black to match Smart Vinyl material colors.

Cut a piece of transfer tape a bit larger than the size of the word or 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.
Gently rub the vinyl to help it stick to the wood. You can use a Cricut scraper tool or your finger nails for this.
