The skin adhesive decal is a combination of a multi-color flexographically printed design on a very thin, flexible, extensible, uniform layer of water resistant material covering a water soluble release layer carried by porous decal paper and a uniform deposit of adhesive covering the design and adapted to hold the design against the skin and protect it from disruption. The decal may be combined with a sticker to form a unique singular product capable of separation by the user into its sticker and decal components. The sticker is a combination of a multi-color flexographically printed design on an ink-accepting paper lying atop a very thin, uniform layer of removable pressure sensitive adhesive atop a liner weight backing paper. The process of making the decal enables rapid, continuous manufacture of the multi-color decal by flexographic printing of a multi-color design through the combination of the steps of forming a very thin, uniform water resistant film on a water soluble release layer carried by the decal paper, flexographically printing the design on that film and thereafter depositing on the printed design a uniform layer of pressure sensitive adhesive. The process of making the sticker also includes the rapid, continuous flexographic printing where upon completion, the sticker and decal are glued to a separating liner which allows the user to separate the product into its component decal and sticker parts.
