So, if you love to create lots of signs or just anything that would require hand painting, you should really consider getting a Silhouette Cameo. It comes with some really great things for beginners. Here’s one of the best bundles I’ve seen, Silhouette Cameo Bundle. Who knew? Right? I didn’t for the first year or two I had my Silhouette Cameo.īut now that I do, like I said, game changer. ) )Ĭlick the Send To Silhouette icon and then click Start to start cutting. (I like to use shelf liner paper if I’m not using the vinyl letters on the project, because it’s cheaper. I’ve found it can vary depending on what kind of vinyl I’m using, so adjust accordingly. These are the ones I use and have worked well for me for vinyl. Be sure to adjust your cut settings for each. Click it and then delete the image away.Ĭlick Vinyl (or whatever medium you are using). This next step is not necessary but you can do it if you want to save the cut file to your library.Ĭlick on the graphic and slide it away from the cut file (red lines).
When you uncheck that box, it will now look like this.Ĭlick the Trace icon to trace the entire image. In order for the entire graphic/letters to cut properly, you will want to uncheck the High Pass Filter box. Your image will look like this after you do that. Using your mouse, create the box around your image/graphic. Now that it’s in your Silhouette, you can move it around and resize it. You can either double click or move the image over with your mouse. Open your Silhouette and choose your mat size.Ĭlick File, then Open to find the image/graphic you want to open in your Silhouette Cameo.

Whichever way works best for you! :) How To Import Your Own Designs Into Silhouette Cameo: You can watch the video too, and just pause where needed. I created a video and am going to share the step-by-step in the post here as well. It’s just such a time saver and am so happy to finally share it with you today. I’ve since used this method on many projects! You can see all the details on it, here > Thrifty Wall Art My very first project with this method (once I figured out how to get my own designs into Silhouette Cameo) was this pretty wall art I made for my great-niece… Or maybe just want another way to “design” with it. Okay, so since I do so many projects around here incorporating this method and have for quite a while, I thought it was high time to give y’all a step-by-step in case you might be struggling with your Silhouette too. Take a peek, if you haven’t visited yet! :) )įor future reference, you can get to the shop by clicking here…
( did you know I have my very own shop on Amazon filled with all the things I use and love here on the blog? I even filled it up with a bunch of pretty decor items I love too! So if you are ever looking for a product I’ve used but can’t remember the post it’s in, be sure to check the shop as I’ve tried to include pretty much everything. You can find the Silhouette Bundle I found in my shop, here > Artsy Chicks Rule Shop. I just wanted to put a post together that goes over how very simple it is to use this thing. Now, this is not a sponsored post, however, I have included an affiliate link to an awesome Silhouette Bundle I found. Maybe one day I’ll have the time to learn it all. I know it is capable of doing so much more than I utilize it for but it is so worth every penny for what I do use it for! There is a bit of a learning curve and with everything going on with the blog and the projects I need to keep up with for the blog, there was never that much time to learn. I’ve had the Silhouette Cameo for years but didn’t really use it that much in the beginning. It’s great for just using the vinyl letters, or creating a stencil to paint in the letters/image…or even creating the letters by painting the project piece, applying the cut vinyl, painting a contrasting color over top and then removing the vinyl letters/image to reveal the color underneath. I’ve spent a lot of time painting in lettering and such over the years and still do sometimes.īut I have to tell you how much time my trusty little Silhouette Cameo saves me. If you’ve been around here for any length of time, you surely know that I’m a sign, graphic, quote loving girl! :) It’s a game changer and easier than you think! Learn how to import your own designs into Silhouette Cameo.
