The project is set up to fit a 40cm round acrylic sign, the letters for the top of the sign are ungrouped so that they will fit on one piece of chipboard.

Once ready, click 'Make It' and select your mat sizes. Next, choose heavy chipboard for the top sign letters, you may need to calibrate your knife blade.

Place the chipboard onto the StrongGrip cutting mat and secure with masking tape or washi tape, then cut. Carefully remove from the chipboard after cutting and set to one side.

For the vinyls, place each colour, when prompted, onto the StandardGrip cutting mat. Cut following the on-screen instructions.

Weed away the negatives around the letters, using a lightbox will make this easier.

For the titles, use the strong grip transfer tape to pick up the gold letters and place onto their white offsets.

Then place onto the acrylic above each category.

Once dry, place onto the acrylic sign as per the design. Use tacky glue to stick each letter down.

Leave the glue to dry.
