Create a Family Sticker

January 13, 2020 by John

Create a family sticker for your car, or truck, or boat… almost, whatever!

Yes, it’s a cool manner of expression. No, it’s not for everyone. And not cool for everyone. And my wife doesn’t like the taste of whiskey. Though, I love it. But I don’t like eggs, but I do like fast cars, and she likes…

Meaning… this BIG world has a little something for everyone. The figurative “boats” (does this float your boat?) get floated by this, that or the other thing. Yep, everyone’s different! And like this or that and those things over there, those car decals or those tattooed arms, syrupy pancakes or mega HOT sauce, and whatever else, the world is going to continue to spin round and round just like the thousands and thousands of ways to express yourself will continue to fad (like fade, but fad) in and out. And creating a family sticker, instead of getting a tattoo or custom-made T-shirt, might be a manner of expression you find fun to advantage of—if it floats your figurative boat, of course. So, EXPRESS yourself, if ya wanna! And SHOUT!

If I haven’t lost you yet, then yes, this might be right up your alley. What a cool and unique thing it is: Creating a family sticker!

Today’s blog post will highlight a few of the cool, and sometimes really crazy, “family stickers” we have created. And while most of our pics show them applied to car windows, in fact, the family “car” sticker can be applied to just about any smooth surface.

If I still have your attention, you made it through the screening process. You might want to shout out to the whole wide world—I love my family—or, and we have created many family stickers like this, too: My family is crazy and they drive me nuts! And last but not least, “position available” (you’ll see what I mean below).

custom family sticker — The above image shows a close-up of a die-cut family sticker with optional names added. Way cooler than a decal with a background, this sticker is just the white part as shown here. It is the only part that will remain on your car window (again, *not* just for car windows) after you remove the family sticker’s application tape.

Without further ado… here’s some more pics showing how our family stickers are made, a few cool, and perhaps wild examples, and finally, where you can go to create your family sticker online.

family stickers on car windows and RVs — From car windows to bumpers to RVs and more, the above picture shows some of the cool family stickers our clients having ordered using our website, **Full Intensity Grafx**.

very large family sticker across back window — This client created a very large family sticker (above) that goes across her entire back window. There’s cats, dogs, kids swinging on vines, grandparents and names, even a sun! And the second image (below) shows just how crazy a family sticker might possibly get. The family sticker here, starts with a dad and a keg of beer, then a mom chilling out with her beer, 4-wheeler and go-cart kids, cute girls, and a basset hound and a cat. Wow!

weird family sticker — **Don’t ask! But I will tell… at least a little.** Remember how I said “whatever floats your boat” in the opening paragraph of this blog post, well… This is hands down one of the craziest, weirdest family stickers we have created upon customer request.

A fishing team family sticker. So easy to create! Simply go to our site, Full Intensity Grafx Family Stickers, then select the dads, choose. Select the moms, choose (names optional). Then choose the header option and enter **FISHING TEAM**, or whatever custom header you’d like. Add your *custom family sticker* to the shopping car and check out. Piece of cake!

grandpa grandma family sticker — Here’s another. This fishing team is a grandma and grandpa fishing team. Same deal! Head over to Full Intensity Grafx Family Stickers and choose instead from the grandparents category. Add your optional header, choose a vinyl color if you’d like, add to cart and check out.

hunting family sticker — A hunting team family sticker. Perfect for hunters! Create yours any way you’d like to.

hunting fishing family sticker — And this one is both. For hunting *and* fishing, a family sticker for the outdoors person. Makes a unique gift that lasts for years when applied.

single mom family sticker — A family sticker for the single mom. This one is custom made using a cool mom with a martini, and her two small dogs. The header text chosen states it simply and succinctly… JUST US!

Halloween family sticker — *Muahaha*! This spooky family sticker is perfect for the Halloween enthusiast, that person who loves to celebrate Halloween all year round. We have many alternates like this in our catalog. Select the family members you want, names or not, your optional header, add to cart and checkout. Check it out, you’ll find these scary selections by pulling the throw switch, which turns on **Zombie family sticker mode**! We ship daily.

Army family sticker — This army military sticker is one of our client favorites. Like all of the above, you’ll only find this style of family sticker at Full Intensity Grafx. We drew everyone of these unique designs and have been offering them for over two decades now.

So, that’s all for today’s blog post. Again, just another of a million ways to express yourself in our BIG world. And a mighty cool one, I might add. And I think you think so too, if you’ve made it this far in today’s post.

So, have a great one, everybody. Thanks for reading. And, BE CREATIVE! Express yourself using whatever means you’d like! And if that happens to be by creating a cool family sticker, then Lore and I would love to be your go-to one-stop vinyl shop!

Not Tattoos, 8 Creative uses for Vinyl DECALS, besides for Cars

January 10, 2020 by John

NOT TATTOOS! They’re cool vinyl decals!

We’ve been doing this a while. Selling vinyl graphics, that is. Over two decades, actually. And our outside setup makes quite a stir, decal mania, really, and kids walking by almost always say, “Look at all the tattoos!”

eagle decal on a red canister — A multi-color eagle decal on a custom project!

Well, they’re surely not tattoos, and I don’t generally see a tattoo booth set up outside at flea markets, events and shows. But the adults generally know what they are. And I can often times hear one person asking another, “What are they?” while a companion of that person most times answers, “They’re decals, for cars.” To which—if I’m in the up-and-at-’em salesperson mood—I sometimes chime in with, “Actually, you can use them on just about any smooth surface.”

But, yep, first impression—we sell decals for cars. And trucks and vans, and boats, and… Well, there’s tons of other uses.

And this brings us to the topic of today’s blog post, which, had me going through some photos. Some were from recent eras, and some were from, well, quite a while ago. And now I shall highlight things we have created in the past—Eight Creative uses for Vinyl Decals, besides Cars, Trucks, and Boats—while you are free to come up with any project you have in mind, letting us know what you might need a vinyl decal for. Because Lore and I will be more than happy to help and advise!

So, without further typing, here we go…

This one brings a memory, of a BUZZ! Good beer, and some cool decals we used to create (and still can if YOU need some) for a micro-brewery. They took pride in brewing some pretty dang good ale, and we loved creating these, as well as many other styles of logo decals, for the beer bottles. Have something in mind, give us a shout out.

Beware of dog sign and doberman — We used this **Beware of Dog Sign** on the gate of our house when we had two *really cool* doberman pincers named Ruby and Beaker. This sign lasted for at least five years and probably would have pulled ten or more. Decals can be used for your signs and custom projects, or you can buy a sign like this from us. We still have it and others like it online and it’s quite popular. Check out our **Full Intensity Grafx Plus eBay store** and in the topmost search box type “SIGN.” Or, create your own multi-line custom lettering decals and apply to shellacked wood, metal, plastic, etc. The decals will work on just about any smooth surface and last for years and years.

Thanks to Danny and family for this picture. Danny has been with us for years. This particular decal was used for a bodybuilder in the family, and the competition for Mr. Iowa Natural, which I believe, if I can recall, that he did win! The skull decal on the right is also a send-in from Danny, showing off his decals. Danny is always thinking up cool custom projects, and he knows we absolutely love it when we receive pictures from our clients, especially with the client in the picture!

kayak decals canoe stickers — We made a whole assortment of various decals for these kayaks. The client wanted each kayak to have its own theme and well… I think they turned out amazing!

Chess board decals — One of our earliest clients, when the world wide wide was still new and there were a few people still walking around without a cellphone in their pockets. This client created custom chessboards, and I believe he is no longer in business. But I’ll never forget some of the cool custom creations (see more in our customer’s rides page) he made using our vinyl decals!

Coat of arms custom shield decals — I’ll never forget this one! Back when we had our shop, this was one of the coolest projects we took on. The client provided and image of what he wanted to create, on a plate. We created the decal, as shown above—although it was not quite as simple as 1, 2, 3, 4—and the rest is history! A family coat of arms shield was restored. To create this I first had to scan in the design, separate the colors, then die-cut each decal piece. The decals were layered for the multi-color effect, and finally the created sticker was applied to the shield. One for the history books!

cornhole board decals — We have made many a decal for cornhole (corn-hole) boards. The client can provide the art, or choose something from our large decal catalog, and we can work our magic. Same as the shield decals pictured above, the die-cut vinyl here is layered to create a full-color effect that looks way better than any printed sticker ever could. And it lasts longer too!

Custom guitar decals using vinyl lettering. Musicians know how important it is to pay attention to detail. Every note, every tone, every very fine detail! These name logo decals are made using one of our fonts, cut in gold, silver, or choose any color, and applied to the guitar. It looks as authentic as can be! Great for restorations, and it brings to mind a piano restoration we help with… but, ah yes, maybe for another post, another day.

That’s it for now. I hope you liked today’s post. And, if you have used vinyl decals—ours or those of a competitor—by all means, please send us a picture and we’ll share it with the world. Have a great one, everybody! ~Full Intensity Grafx

Create a Custom Lettering Decal

January 8, 2020 by John

Step by step how-to, Create Custom Lettering Decals that ROCK! By Full Intensity Grafx—The Graphics Masters!

It’s no secret that Lore and I have been cranking them out for over two decades now, and in the process, we’ve learned a few things about owning and operating a small business. First and foremost, you, our client, comes first. Not money, not anything else.

Second, we’ve never look at competitors’ prices (you want the best, not the cheapest), because reputation is king (WE DON’T CUT CORNERS) and if we lose a sale by telling the truth (e.g. how long a decal will really last applied to various surfaces / at various angles; where you might be able to get a product more suitable to your application, etc.), then we lose a sale. But we gain a friend, and your trust—and a client who we consider family—for life. We’re here when you need us, we never, ever cut those corners, and we want to make your custom lettering decals.

Now, many of you reading this have been with us for years, and many of you have just stumbled upon this post on the web. The aforementioned know that, Full Intensity Grafx—Lore and I, and family—consider you more than just a client, and we hope anyone new considering doing business with us will give us a chance to prove it by letting us work for you.

Now, without further ado, let’s check out some of the custom lettering decals we’ve made over the years and I’ll show to how to create one, or many, by using our website, which has been online for almost two decades now.

But first, we’ll check out some cool custom lettering decals we have created in the past, and then I’ll show you the three simple steps so you can order your decal online.

NOTE #1: captions and instructions will appear at the bottom of each image.

NOTE #2: many of the links will take you to our main site where you can access a particular feature. category of lettering styles for your decals, etc.

Lore in the process of creating a custom lettering decal — Here, Lore is creating a bright yellow vinyl lettering decal for a ranch. This yellow one uses a really cool font from our cowboy and western style fonts. The name of it is Saloon. At the right you can see a Performance Trucks decal using a sporty font, in color black, and a Gamblers custom text decal made with another cowboy, western style font. And this one uses one or our shadow styles (shadow style #9) for a two-color effect. The two-color decals do cost a little more, as we have to create, die-cut each color as separate decals, then put them together to make quite a unique product!

assorted custom text decals — **Top left:** Nikki’s Dawgs has been with us for years! Here we created orange and sapphire blue decals using shadow style #6 on our website. I threw in the third layer of vinyl for this order, FREE. The white highlight really sets it off. Nikki’s Dawgs is a small business owner, hot dog stand. **Top right:** Custom lettering using a cool graffiti font and our ultra bright neon fluorescent vinyl. This vinyl is outdoor durable for 1-2 years, whereas our regular colors can last up to six years or more. Notice, this vinyl is much thicker. **Bottom left:** A custom “Reaper” text decal using a dripping i.e. bloody Old English style font. **Bottom right:** Dark Side Pullers has also been with us for years. These dripping bloody style decals are used on racing tractors!

step by step two color decals — **Here’s a step by step, how-to…** Take a look at this two-color decal being made. First we cut the vinyl items that you order, using the fonts, sizes, etc., that you have chosen, and for this example, we are about to add shadow style #8. The client’s Instagram handle (chosen text entered when he or she ordered the decal on our site) is cut into a neon orange decal (the chosen vinyl colors), and then the purple shadow is cut. We then layer the two colors, carefully and very slowly peel off the application tape, and then re-cover the created decal with a fresh layer of application tape. It’s now ready to be applied via a simple peel and stick. See this page for full decal application instructions and videos. **Didn’t this color combination come out cool?**

custom lettering stickers — Here’s some assorted pictures for ideas, to show what’s possible. The “Piñata” decal, by the way, brings back a memory. The client wanted a cool decal for his truck, which he called **The Piñata**. He called it so, because it was beat up, like a Piñata! Also pictured here are some lettering decals we made for a gym, and some name decals and logo text decals.

script and tagger lettering decals — And last but not least of today’s examples, before I show you how to create your own custom lettering decals on our site, are four cool vinyl text creations. **Top left:** “In Loving Memory” text using bright orange, and a tagger font. **Top right:** Trail Boss, using copper 6-year outdoor durable vinyl, and one of our coolest western style fonts! **Bottom left:** “Humpty Dumpty Was Pushed!” Yes, we’ve seen it all, funny ones, crazy and wacky ones. Enter any text you want, and we can **create your custom lettering decal**. And finally, **Bottom right:** “El Woody,” a cool lettering decal that uses one of our script fonts. This decal is very clean, and cut from our burgundy, maroon vinyl.

Now, how to create your custom lettering decal at Full Intensity Grafx… in three simple steps!

(Captions and instructions will appear at the bottom of each image. NOTE: Easier to see all of the options when using a computer or tablet.)

Step #1. Go here. Choose a lettering style category…

create a custom lettering decal at Full Intensity Grafx How-To — Go to Full Intensity Grafx, and select your lettering style by hovering over the category of fonts you like, then click on it. Full Intensity Grafx Custom Lettering Decals

Step #2. Choose your font style…

Step 2 Choosee a font for your decal — In the text box under “Step #2” enter some text. This is the text you want on your custom lettering decal. It can be a name, a website address, a business name or car or truck club name, etc. Then, press **GO!** You will be able to see what the text looks like in all of the fonts in that category. Now, just select the one you like!

Step #3. Select options, add to cart, checkout…

choose decal options — Now, simply choose your custom decal options, add to cart, then checkout. **Note #1:** If you would like a **sample proof**, please leave a note in the comments box at checkout and we will make sure to create one, upload it to your order details page, and wait for your approval before we create your decals. **NOTE #2:** You must choose color, size, and quantity. The rest of the options are optional.

Step #4. Shadow style “options”… (A TIP!)

shadow style options for your custom lettering decal — TIP: The shadow options, are optional! Please note, these options don’t always look better. Sometimes the one-color text is the way to go, looks more awesome and clean applied to glass, and may be more readable from a distance. Generally, I prefer one-color decals most of the time, plus it is cheaper! **NOTE:** Styles 1 through 5 are still a one-color vinyl decal. Styles 6 through 10 are two colors, i.e. two decals layered to create the two-color effect. A two-color decal will cost approximately 50% extra.

That’s it for today’s post. Now, what cool custom lettering decals are you going to create?

Use them for ideas and inspiration, or just kick back and imagine what is possible. Going forward, we expect 2020 to be even better, and can’t wait to answer your question: Can you create a decal for me? YES. WE CAN!

So without further ado, here’s blog post two: Best of the Shop, Cool Decal Photos!

Name decal for back window — I can’t forget this AWESOME Chevy Camaro we added a custom lettering decal to. This vinyl decal is made using color bright yellow in an Old English font and says the client’s last name. We made this decal during our annual 4th of July festival, and applied the decal on the spot.

Chrysler Script Lettering Decal and Crown — Another custom decal we made during the same weekend. A Chrysler Decal complete with crown.

Party Rentals Jumping Balloon Decal — We created this **jumping balloon design and decal** and made it in full color. This is made by layering the vinyl colors to create a look you can’t get from any printed sticker. Outdoor durable for up to 6 years or more. Jumping balloon, **party rentals custom decal**.

custom flag decal — This was artwork provided by the client. We created these custom SSE flag decals which will be traveling the country on the client’s **semi-truck**. This flag decal is made using a white vinyl base layer, then black and gold metallic to complete the look. A custom project that turned out great!

Slingshot custom sexy lady decal — Our banana girl decal (Custom art created by artist Joe Irramendi) now rides this slingshot, with cherry on top! We created these **custom decals** for Ed’s slingshot. Ed has been with us for many years, and is always thinking up cool ideas, which we turn into reality. A custom slingshot sexy lady decal for Ed’s three-wheel slingshot ride. See more of his pics in our customer’s rides section on our main website.

Alien Shoe Store Decal — Joey’s shoes, custom shoe store decal. We made this custom alien decal complete with red tagger lettering, for Joey, who sets up next to us at our outdoor setup on Sundays. Since, it has been removed, as Joey’s back window, unfortunately, got shattered, but currently as I type this we are working for completely new art for Joey, who hopes to be opening up a shoe store here in El Paso.

Extra large Jesus vinyl decal — Lore is busy in the shop. She’s currently “weeding” these gold vinyl Indian feather decals, and we just finished creating this EXTRA -LARGE **Jesus Christ decal**, which is just about to ship!

Jester Decal — A bad ass Jester decal made in multiple colors of Oracal 651-series vinyl, layered to make a popping effect that really catches the eyes!

Joker Decal — Jester, or… We call this one the **Joker**! One of the best, our most popular Joker decal which can also be made with different vinyl colors upon request. This one is made with four layers of die-cut vinyl: a black base layer, then red, orange, and white.

Sexy Ladies Trucker Decal — One of the freebies we sent out in our **free decal sample packs**, and this one’s a hit. A sexy lady, “sexy” trucker decal. Hundreds of you received one of these cool carbon fiber vinyl sexy ladies truckers decals last year, and we plan on sending the free decal sample packs again soon. How to get a free decal sample pack, you ask? Create any order on the website, of $25 or more, and check the box at checkout that says, “**Send me free decals in the mail once in a while.**“

Clown middle finger decal — Ha! What do you think of this clown decal. **A mad, evil clown flicking the middle finger**. This was another custom design drawn by graphic artist Joe Irramendi for Full Intensity Grafx during 2003, and is still making a scene today, more than a decade and a half later. Custom clown flicking the bird decal sticker!

4x4 decal — We have a large selection of cool 4×4 decals. Here’s a close-up showing the precision cutting that all decals receive. **4×4 Off-Road black vinyl graphics**, for trucks and off-road vehicles of all types. These graphics will take all the mud your off-road ride can dish out!

Bigfoot I Believe Decal — I believe, custom BIGFOOT decal, made in Oracal 651-series white vinyl. Another of the freebies we had given out during 2019. White is the color that lasts the longest, typically up to 6 years or more, and it’s probably our most popular color, as it stands our well when applied to glass or any dark-colored surface.

Lion Rampant Flag Flag Decal — A client from Sweden requested this custom Lion Rampant Flag Decal, and we added it to our decal catalog. Also upon request, by the same client, we added a St Andrewâs Cross Flag and a Scotland Scottish Flag Decal. Check them out on our main website, and order flag decals in any size.

Roach smoking roach custom decal — Roach smoking a… yes, a roach. This WEED themed decal is another drawn by Joe, like those mentioned above. Joe has drawn us hundreds upon our request, pretty much whenever I got the wild idea which would pop into my head. This cockroach decal was made with a white base layer, so it will stand out well when applied to a tinted window, then added are the black, then brown, red, and yellow vinyl colors. Still sold on our site!

Psycho Chihuahua Sign — Beware of Psycho Chihuahua, a cool and funny, and popular sign we have been making for years. This one makes a great gift for any chihuahua pet owners, in fact, we sold one for just that, this Christmas.

Custom decals, like a handmade pair of boots. Something vinyl, cool decal creations, how it’s made!

January 2, 2020 by John

Well, not exactly like “boots.” But much in part handmade—with precision, experience, and care!

Here’s five custom decal highlights of 2019, and how they’re made…

At Full Intensity Grafx we’ve been creating custom vinyl decals for just over 20 years now. When a customer comes up to me and asks, “Can you print a decal for me, like this?” and then shows me a photo, I think of handmade boots, and exactly what it’ll take to get the client’s custom decals made—from start to finish. And even though it’s probably not as complicated as making a “handmade pair of boots,” there is a process involved. And depending on the design, much care is involved in order to create a product that WOWS the client.

Now, and without further ado, follow along as I talk about the following five posts… Start-to-finish, custom decals made with multiple layers of die-cut, 6-year outdoor durable vinyl. Machine cut, tediously “weeded” by hand, and assembled to create a unique one-of-a-kind decal product!

First up is this Cobra decal. It’s made with a base layer of gloss black vinyl, then gold and red, and to top it off, REFLECTIVE, yes, REFLECTIVE vinyl eyes! Check out the details of this amazing, one-of-a-kind result. Way better than any printed sticker could ever be. **As we always say, maybe not the cheapest vinyl decals out there, but then who wants the cheapest?** Next is the “BIG DAWG” custom lettering, which uses a very dark steel blue base layer, and silver text, and then a really cool school mascot bulldog decal that’ll look great applied to a tinted window because of its white base layer. The white base layer is die-cut first, then atop it goes black, silver, and medium blue high-gloss vinyl. This client also added the school’s name at the top and bottom of the decal. Really cool, and this will last for up to 6 years on a vehicle window, or longer!

Next up, and we make quite a few of these, are some cool USA and assorted flag decals. The USA flag takes more care and time, as we need to be extremely careful in lining up the stars and stripes, and in fitting the red and sapphire blue vinyl colors to the white base layer. After this is done, the application tape used to place the topmost colors is removed, and the outer shape is precision cut to ensure there is no overlap or excess or the top layer colors. Also pictured is a Rebel / Confederate flag decal, which gets the same attention to detail and precision outer cuts. And there is also this cool, Texas flag decal in the shape of the state of Texas. For anyone who wants a product that goes above a simple printed sticker, these custom-made vinyl flag decals are for you. And, feel free to contact us if you need a flag decal you cannot find in our flag decal online catalog.

Customer provided art, made into a custom logo decal for a semi-truck! The client went to many places around town and no one wanted to take on the project. His artwork was a rough sketch and was going to need a whole lot of work. **I’ve known this client for almost 20 years, took a look, and said “Let’s do it!”** I knew exactly what needed to be done. And it took me a good 1-2 hours, recreating every line in the client’s artwork, making it nice and clean—and here is the final result, applied to the truck! The client was excited! Their big rig had been out of commission for quite some time, and now has a fresh engine rebuild, brand new vinyl graphics, DOT number decals and custom lettering for the company name—and is ready for the open road! One of my favorite projects of 2019. Custom trucker, trucking, semi-truck logo vinyl graphics—from client-provided artwork, to reality!

One of my favorites. Here’s a step by step creation of a cool custom Muscle Man Mustang Horse Decal. This design was drawn by my long-time friend, Joe. **Joe has drawn hundreds of the designs that are in our** **online decal catalog**, and we currently have most in the one-color decal version, and like this awesome multi-layer decal, the full-color version. This Mustang decal was made with a white base layer, so it stands out well when applied to tinted glass, and then gold vinyl, medium blue, white, and finally red for the hat.

We made these **food truck decals** in late 2019. The client provided a the art, and we made the vinyl decals a reality, and then applied them. What was quite memorable about this one, was that I forgot my ladder. **I used some nearby cement blocks to reach the high stuff, and in the process of moving the blocks, stirred up a thousand ants.** Needless to say I finished the job while getting stung and swatting the ants away and off my legs. But it came out so amazing! Since, we’ve added many more (printed food picture decals) to this same food-truck, and we did not forget our ladder!

Well, that’s it for today’s post. I hope you have enjoyed it. Stay tuned for more vinyl decal adventures!
