Instructions
Cutting Out the New Years Hat

Then go into the SVG Folder and select the SVG Files- You can resize the hat by selecting all and clicking on

- and rearrange the small silver stars
- Now if everything looks correct on it, click on the continue button
The next screen will be where you will select the type of card stock you are using. If you do not see the material in your material favorites, click on "browse all materials" to find the weight of cardstock that you are using. For example the black Cardstock I used is medium weight, you will need to select "Medium Weight"..
Once you have Design Space set, you are now ready to prepare your mat. I used a brayer when placing the Cardstock on the mat, this helps in making sure that the paper is adhered to the mat and will help in keeping the paper from ripping or moving when it is being cut. - If you are making the New Years Hat you will not need to mirror the vinyl unless you are using HTV.
Assembling the New Years Hat
- Starting with the hat piece
- next take the goil foil hat band
- put foam strips on the back
- and place it on the hat
- then take the large silver star
- put foam dots on the back of the star
- and place it in the middle of the band
- after weeding the gold adhesive foil pieces, cut the apart so you can add them to the hat one at a time
- next take the wording
- add each word separately
- starting with the word "year!"
- using transfer tape add it to the top of the hat above the large silver star
- next using transfer tape add the word new
- then using transfer tape add the word happy
