❓ Frequently Asked Questions About This Design
We’ve anticipated your questions regarding this terrifyingly popular design!
- Q: How is the dripping blood effect achieved on a t-shirt?
- A: We recommend using the two-layer SVG file. Cut the main black design from black HTV, and then cut the red blood drips layer from glossy red HTV. Carefully layer the red on top of the black for a stunning, realistic effect.
- Q: Can I use this Don’t Fall Asleep SVG for a large banner or poster?
- A: Yes! Because the SVG file is vector-based, you can scale the design infinitely without losing any quality in the scary claws or the intricate blood drips detail, making it perfect for large decorations.
- Q: Is the text clean enough to weed easily on a Cricut?
- A: The distressed dripping blood font is designed with slightly thicker cut paths, making the weeding of the vinyl easier than highly thin or script fonts, while still maintaining the rough, horror aesthetic.
