Vinyl cut with blade on M1. Transferred images into xCS software and cut with blade using removable vinyl settings. Make sure to use the xTool mat as it's sticky on both sides (mistake number one). 

To weed small pieces I recommend transferring the entire cut piece to your product and weed there. It will save many small lines (mistake 2). 

You can seal with polycrylic when done to extend the longevity of your gift.
