✨ WHAT IS THIS ITEM? ✨
- This is a vinyl adhesive decal sized to fit a 9.5" x 9.5" graduation cap. It does not contain a solid background, just the die-cut design shown in the images. The design itself is completely original to Heart Made Whole (hand-lettered by me)! Illustrations/embellishments not included.

✨ WHAT COLOR SHOULD I CHOOSE? ✨
- Choose a color in *contrast* with your cap color (ex. choose a white decal if your cap is black, or choose a black decal if your cap is white). The decal color in this listing's first photo and video is white. Please note that while decals can be applied to a cardstock background, they will not easily stick to glitter and I would not recommend trying.

✨ DOES IT COME WITH A GRADUATION CAP? ✨
- No, just a decal and an instructions card.

✨ IS THIS A CAP TOPPER OR AN IRON-ON TRANSFER? ✨
Neither! This is not a traditional cap "topper" — a decal is similar to a sticker without a background with a different application method. You should not apply any heat to it. Please watch video and see instructions below.

✨ HOW DO I APPLY THE DECAL TO MY CAP? ✨
- Clean your cap of debris and smooth any wrinkles.
- Using a credit card or similar flat object, carefully rub the decal to make sure it's completely adhered to the clear transfer tape.
- Slowly separate the transfer tape from the paper backing. If any part of the decal is not sticking to the tape, repeat the previous step. Do your best to touch only the transfer tape and not the exposed decal adhesive.
- Position and place the decal onto your cap. Try not to readjust more than once or twice. Starting from the center and working your way outwards, use your hands to firmly smooth the transfer tape onto the cap, removing any air bubbles.
- Using a credit card again, carefully but firmly burnish the decal to encourage the vinyl to release from the tape and adhere to your cap. You want to rub with a medium to high amount of pressure, being careful to not bend your cap.
- Slowly peel the transfer tape by flipping it back flat onto itself and dragging down. If any part of the decal is stuck onto the tape instead of the cap, repeat the previous step.
- After the tape is removed, use your fingers to ensure the decal is completely stuck to your cap. After 24 hours the adhesive is cured and you are ready to walk the stage!

✨ HOW LONG UNTIL THIS SHIPS? ✨
- My processing time is 3-5 business days from the time I receive your order. Please message me if you need this within 2 weeks of your order date as you may need a shipping upgrade or rush order.
