This is the second thing I did as an intern in Fablab Reykjavík. A sticker for my car.
After getting familiar with the [[Epilog Mini 24|Laser cutter]] we had to make a sticker to get back into vinyl cutting. The process uses a [[Roland GX-24 CAMM-1|Vinyl cutter]] to cut your Inkscape drawing on a roll of vinyl sticker. making one of these stickers is rather easy. however, we weren't just making any ol' sticker... We were making a multi color sticker.

Making a multi color sticker is in it self not a very complicated process. You just cut it on two colors of vinyl and remove from both sticker so they overlap into one layer.
