Your best bet to get one of these cut is to find a local makerspace that has a vinyl cutter (sometimes your local library might have one). Places like that will usually do a one-off for you for less than $10.
As far as colors, you could just see what they have, or you could order your own vinyl from Amazon. A 12" x 5' roll of Oracal is about $7, and they have 30-40 different colors you can choose. ( https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01G7R8Z4M/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1 )
You can do very detailed designs with these cutters. I have a low-end, hobbyist model cutter and it will do anything I ask of it. Application involves peeling the pieces you don't want off the backing paper after it's cut. Then you lay down some transfer tape (I just use painters tape) on the top of the vinyl and peel it off the backing paper. Lay that down on your final surface and peel up the transfer tape. The tape peels off and the vinyl stays stuck (lots of YouTude vids on this).
These are permanent adhesive vinyl so they stay stuck with no problem to any relatively smooth surface. A fine sanded maple is just about perfect.

Edit: Thought just occurred to me. If you have a design (png or something), and want to email it to me, I'd be happy to cut it for you and mail it back to you for nuthin'. I have navy blue and silver vinyl in hand at the moment, so if you want a different color than that, you might need to buy it and send it to me. You could just order a roll (maybe even a sheet for cheaper?) from Amazon and have them ship it to me.
