I just want to thank you. I just got a Cameo 2, and a sibling asked for a decal for her car, I had vinyl, but I didn't entirely get what I was doing. Thanks to your video, I realized I didn't need the mat, to load the media directly, and it went like a charm. You had me with the stuff on your website already, but this kinda cements how amazing I think you guys are. Thank you, so much. I may have ruined half a sheet of lime green, but you guys saved me the other half of that sheet from more mistakes.
Thank you for this! I learned a lot. I just made my first vinyl stickers yesterday on my portrait but I'm still learning and the application tape isn't something I had heard of before!
very big thing for this good video :) :) :D :) !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! very happy i have check on web for this nor i a what i need thanks bros for this good video continue ;))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))
If they can't figure out how to clean the car window, it's debatable if they should be allowed to drive the car XD jk, maybe throw in a little sheet with step by step? It would probably look more professional in my opinion :)
Hello, It is FDC Sign Vinyl, It can be found here: www.therhinestoneworld.com/Main-Category/Sign--AND--Decal-Materials/Subcategory-1/FDC-Sign-Vinyl TRW, Grant
+rence822 Hey Rence, with a brand new blade you should have a speed of 8 (this is dependent on design size and intracacy. Smaller, more intricate designs require a slower speed), depth of 3, and thickness of 7. Glad you're enjoying the videos! Happy designing! Doug @ TRW
You said "we have set Corel Draw up for the Silhouette, I have version X5 but have no idea how to go about it. Probably simple 'if you know how' I plan to make houses out of card for my model rail, and assume I can Cut the card at different depths in One run, some would be all the way through,others to be say 3/4 depth. Or would that have to be two different runs. Can you guess I'm new at this? Regards Bob
This question isn't related to vinyl... I currently print out many pictures of buildings and stuff on card stock, and cut out all the windows by hand. Can this machine do that? Like can I feed a printed page into the cameo, and it will perfectly cut out all the areas? It seems like you have to manually feed this machine, so I'm wondering if alignment would be a problem for what I want. Thanks if you can help!
+Sean b Hello Sean, Thank you for your message. You would have to manually feed into this cutter and the important thing would be to use the mat so that your paper does not slide around. One of other thing for you to think about is that your image would have to be a vector in order for the software to recognize it and cut it. TRW Erika
Great video, thanks for the information. I have a question though.. What is the benefit of using the yellow box around the design when you are making it? Thanks again!
Hi Amy Fox, The yellow box is helpful when you have several colors in one design. They are called templates. When you layer the boxes on top of each other, the design matches up perfectly. They are especially helpful if you have a template with two stone sizes. Hope this helps! Jenny@TRW
Hi could you please tell me the brand name of your t shirt heat press and if you have a cap press as well. I'm very new to this and I would like a professional to recommend to me their first choice for a beginner with a budget.
+frustek Hello. The paper is called Hot Fix tape and it can be found on our website. Please follow the link and you can purchase the hot fix tape on our website: therhinestoneworld.com/store/#!/~/search/keywords=hot fix&offset=0&sort=relevance TRW Erika
Hey Matt TheRhinestoneWorld ,in my last order I grabbed a sample of the car window vinyl to do as you suggested in the video & grab more income from my T shirt customers. I set the Silhouette Cameo blade to "2" as you suggested and on my 1st run, I think I cut the "paper" side so it basically screwed up that piece.(I tried to flip it over and run it through again, however, the pressure/cuts from the first run probably made too much of a impression) So, on my 2nd and last sample piece, I ran it through on the smooth vinyl side. Upon cut completion, I slowly tried to weed it out and while some of it remained on the backing, most of it although cuts were present, just pulled up with the vinyl. Any suggestions on settings that my remedy this? Thanks in advance for your time.
Hi Jeffrey Robinson Sr , The Apparel vinyl should be cut shiny side down, and the decal vinyl should be cut white side down. If it cut too deep, make sure you are not doing double cuts, and adjust the depth. You can bring the depth down. Jenny@TRW
How's the durability of this kind of decal put on a car window? If I were to apply water to it using a pressure washer, will it be fine? How about certain weather conditions like snow storms or heavy rain?
Sean, This vinyl is rated for outdoor use. We have had many of these decals withstand all weather conditions and car washes! If you want to take it off, you certainly could, but it wouldn't be the easiest thing. TRW Alexis
If I wanted to apply to the inside of the window, I'm assuming I just reverse the image. Is my assumption correct? Also, would you use the same vinyl or a different type?
Hey Dottie, Most of the colors do have the same color as the back, though, if you're trying to use glitter, glitter has a silver back. That is the only one that doesn't have the same color back as the front. So you should just be able to turn it around. TRW Nick
Hello Scott, FDC is the best vinyl to use for this application. The FDC vinyl has a sticky backing and the application will allow you to transfer the vinyl to the car window or wall. Once on the wall or window, you can peel the application tape and the sticker is done. Let us know if you have any other questions. The FDC vinyl can be purchased on our website here: therhinestoneworld.com/Main-Category/Sign--AND--Decal-Materials/Subcategory-1/FDC-Sign-Vinyl and the Application Tape can be bought here: therhinestoneworld.com/Sign-Vinyl-Application-Tape TRW, Grant
Hi! I am loving watching your tutorials as you explain things so well! One thing I am interested in is how to create a car bumper sticker using black vinyl and white lettering. Up until now I have just been using my versa studio to print on white vinyl but obviously this uses up a lot of ink. Can you tell me the best way to layer it. Do I cut out the text/graphic from the black vinyl and put a white piece underneath or do I reverse weed the white vinyl and put it on top of the black vinyl? Also when layering is there a clear vinyl that you can put on so you don't feel the different layers?
Rory, I would use the Magic Trap method on your lettering. CorelDraw and our Design Wizard have a dedicated button for this method, However if you are doing this in Silhouette we have a video by Lisa at the following link: th-cam.com/video/03VcasVXiHc/w-d-xo.html TRW Casey
Thanks for your reply. I am using illustrator and it doesn't have the Magic Trap. I see stickers in shops that have black backgrounds and there doesn't appear to be any layering whatsoever. Are they simply printing the black color then? thanks
Rory, The magic trap will have a little overlap. The other designs may be doing a simplify and reducing the inner text to allow some positioning, or of course printing the vinyl. TRW Casey
Great Video. I would like to purchase your sports Mom templates, however you mentioned that your templates come in Corel Draw but I only use Adobe Photoshop. Is there by chance that you may have templates in Photoshop? I never used Corel Draw because I don't really like it.
+Candace Phillips Our Ultimate Mom pack is a group of vector files that Adobe can interact with (.cdr .eps .svg). The templates are the files that you would need Corel and our design Wizard to manipulate. TRW Casey

Jenny Iscrafting, This decal will be permanent. We do not carry any "cling" vinyl. For a decal that will not be permanent FDC's Wall Vinyl is removable, and is good for applications that will need to be removed without damaging the surface. TRW Casey

Quick question im using oracal 631 vinyl but every time i cut something my blade goes through the vinyl, im using these settings Blade-1 Thickness-8 Speed-9
Astro Cowboy, The cameo is able to cut a length of 120" of material. To cut that much material a roller may need to be implemented to keep slack in the material. TRW Casey
Do you have any trouble with vinyl sticking to the silhouette blade? I have not tried your vinyl, but plan to order soon. The vinyl I have tried from hobby lobby seems to stick to my blade and I have to try to clean it to keep it from picking the vinyl in other places of my design.
+Janet Lairsey Hello Janet, we normally do not have issue with that. Your thickness and blade depth may be too much and that is why the vinyl is coming up. We can definitely help you with some cut settings that we have tried on our vinyl. I do not know how different it might be from Hobby Lobby. TRW Erika
+TheRhinestoneWorld I use the blade depth of 2 like you recommend. I really think its the quality of the vinyl I'm using. I have the silhouette cameo. I noticed that you did not use the cutting mat for your vinyl product. I do, just so it does not slip. On intricate designs I usually set the speed to 3. Also, do you have vinyl t-shirt transfer materials. I want to share your site with a friend, and that is what she is looking for. Thank you. You have already been such a great help and I LOVE all of your tutorials!
The vinyl that we sell on our website is discounted when you order in bulk! You could take a look at the price breakdowns that we have in the description on the different vinyls! therhinestoneworld.com/Main-Category/Heat-Applied-Materials/Subcategory-1/Siser-Heat-Transfer-Vinyl TRW Alexis
+Malerie Riley Unfortunately we don't know the best settings for cutting with the oracal 651 since we don't work with that particular vinyl. So sorry we couldn't help with this particular question. Doug @ TRW

Hey Jordi! As far as car decals, we find FDC is one of your better brands. It is a great product for a low cost! You can find some here:: www.therhinestoneworld.com/Main-Category/Sign--AND--Decal-Materials/Subcategory-1/FDC-Sign-Vinyl TRW Nick
I need help : I am trying to do this but with window cling. What kind of transfer tape would you recommend for that! What is lower tack than static!! haha
you know what, I don't need help with THIS anymore but I have a different issue. I will send you a youtube link in just a second because I tell you what I am having some serious transfer tape woes right now.
Hello! We are unfamiliar with Circut's vinyl as we do not carry it, so I cannot speak for which is best for that. However, if you are using this vinyl to make a decal, I would recommend our Decal Transfer Tape that can be found here: therhinestoneworld.com/store/#!/12-X-100yd-Roll-R-Tape-Application-Tape-for-Decal-Vinyl/p/32132489/category=8223696 I hope that helps! - TRW Richard
Hi Mazi, we do have a few. What kind of vinyl cutter are you using? That will help me narrow them down to point you towards the most applicable video - TRW Shannon
If you can fit more then one of the designs on one sheet of vinyl, then you are free to cut multiple of them. We would recommend doing this by making your work space the size of the piece of vinyl that you are using. You can then use the "copy selected" button under the "edit" tab in the Wizard to properly space multiple decals throughout your vinyl. If you have any further questions feel free to let us know! TRW Kaitlin
Gary, We absolutely do. :) Here's a link to that! The only other thing you would need besides that is the transfer tape, I'm linking you to that as well. :) Kit: therhinestoneworld.com/store/#!/CAMEO-Decal-Crafter-Starter-Kit-with-Cutter/p/55859370/category=14933622 Tape: therhinestoneworld.com/store/#!/Vinyl-Decal-Application-Tape/c/8223696/offset=0&sort=normal Alexis @ TRW
Hi Randy, the Cameo does include the Silhouette Studio software with it but we do recommend you upgrade to the Silhouette designer edition for $37.99. This will allow you to purchase our downloads from our website and import them easily into your Silhouette software and also gives you the ability to create and work with rhinestone designs. :) Hope this helped! Alexis @ TRW
As long as your design fits within the cut width of your vinyl cutter, yes. Do test cuts to get your cut specs dialed in properly for the Portrait when you go to use your Magic Flock template material. -TRW Pilar
Darlene, The material in this video is FDC Intermediate Sign vinyl and is permanent. We carry the Wall Vinyl from FDC which can also be cut using the Silhouette cutter. FDC Wall vinyl can be removed without damaging the surface it was applied to.

Blade Setting: 2

We can definitely help you with some cut settings that we have tried on our vinyl. I do not know how different it might be from Hobby Lobby. TRW Erika
+TheRhinestoneWorld I use the blade depth of 2 like you recommend. I really think its the quality of the vinyl I'm using. I have the silhouette cameo. I noticed that you did not use the cutting mat for your vinyl product. I do, just so it does not slip. On intricate designs I usually set the speed to 3. Also, do you have vinyl t-shirt transfer materials. I want to share your site with a friend, and that is what she is looking for. Thank you. You have already been such a great help and I LOVE all of your tutorials!
+Janet Lairsey the thickness of the mat is making difference, you use at level 2 but with the mat underneath it brings it up... meow...
Hey, very informative video, I would like to know what vinyl your using and the cover roll? Thanks in advance
Matt is using FDC Sign Vinyl!

Where can I possibly find bulk amounts of different types of vinyl for a decent cost to myself so I'm not having to invest a ton?
The vinyl that we sell on our website is discounted when you order in bulk! You could take a look at the price breakdowns that we have in the description on the different vinyls!

What blade and thickness setting do you use for cutting oracal 651? My cameo keeps ripping the vinyl.
+Malerie Riley Unfortunately we don't know the best settings for cutting with the oracal 651 since we don't work with that particular vinyl. So sorry we couldn't help with this particular question.
Doug @ TRW
+Malerie Riley I just made my first vinyl cut decal using Oracle 651. The blade was set at 2. I have a Cameo 2
Would yall sell like a mother of pearl kinda of vinyl. ( something like on a guitar neck ).

Is it possible to make a 24" Decal with a Silhouette Portrait 3? For example, a 24" smiley face.
Hey there! With the Portrait 3, you can cut up to 60 inches in length, but only about 8 inches in width.
- TRW Haley
@@TheRhinestoneWorld Thank you Sir 👊😎👍
I need help : I am trying to do this but with window cling. What kind of transfer tape would you recommend for that! What is lower tack than static!! haha
Hello! What kind of material were you using for the window cling? - TRW RIchard.
you know what, I don't need help with THIS anymore but I have a different issue. I will send you a youtube link in just a second because I tell you what I am having some serious transfer tape woes right now.
Hello! We are unfamiliar with Circut's vinyl as we do not carry it, so I cannot speak for which is best for that. However, if you are using this vinyl to make a decal, I would recommend our Decal Transfer Tape that can be found here:

Subbed... Question... Do you have any videos on making LARGE decals?
Hi Mazi, we do have a few. What kind of vinyl cutter are you using? That will help me narrow them down to point you towards the most applicable video - TRW Shannon
TheRhinestoneWorld I’m not using any at the moment. I’m looking to get into decal making and soaking up as much info as possible.
so can I use a vector file with this to cut out automotive/sign vinyl logo lettering from 2in strips?
Hello! You should be able to do that. - TRW Richard.
How do you make multiple decals in one cut? And what's the most you can do on this cutter?
If you can fit more then one of the designs on one sheet of vinyl, then you are free to cut multiple of them. We would recommend doing this by making your work space the size of the piece of vinyl that you are using. You can then use the "copy selected" button under the "edit" tab in the Wizard to properly space multiple decals throughout your vinyl. If you have any further questions feel free to let us know!
TRW Kaitlin
+TheRhinestoneWorld wow thanks for the reply! Will be definitely look to you guys for any other question. Subscribed
with the cameo what Blade depth? Thickness? speed?
I bought a decal from someone and I wanted it in glitter. He told me the glitter ones fade. Have you had a problem with this? Thx
Hello! We have not experienced this, the glitter sign vinyl is very durable. - TRW Richard
Hello, do you guys use permanent vinyl for your car decals? or what is the proper name for car/outdoor decals. thanks
Hi +Thomas Hennig,
It is called all-weather Sign Vinyl. Jenny@TRW
Im looking into doing window decals just like this, Do you offer a complete starter package for a hobbyist.
Gary,
We absolutely do. :) Here's a link to that! The only other thing you would need besides that is the transfer tape, I'm linking you to that as well. :)

What about like bumper stickers, where you want a shape around your design.
Molly,
I'm not quite understanding your question. Do you mean a shape that will arch the text?
TRW Alexis
What kind of transfer tape do you use? I'm having a hard time finding a clear brand that isn't too sticky for what I cut.
+TheRhinestoneWorld hey how can u use my cricut explore to do the same thing
Hey Ronald, Unfortunately we do not support the Cricut machines. But they are very similar to the silhouette.
Doug @ TRW
Is the cameo better or what's the reason just askinf
Yes, the silhouette is better in the area of software. The hardware is very similar though.
Can this be applied to mugs or only cars?
You can also apply this to mugs! Here is a video that will be able to help!

-TRW Abby
Is the Silhouette studio software included when I purchase the machine?
Thanks.
Hi Randy, the Cameo does include the Silhouette Studio software with it but we do recommend you upgrade to the Silhouette designer edition for $37.99. This will allow you to purchase our downloads from our website and import them easily into your Silhouette software and also gives you the ability to create and work with rhinestone designs. :) Hope this helped!
Alexis @ TRW
can you use the Cameo portrait for making shirts?
As long as your design fits within the cut width of your vinyl cutter, yes. Do test cuts to get your cut specs dialed in properly for the Portrait when you go to use your Magic Flock template material. -TRW Pilar
Can you please tell me if this is a permanent sticker or can it be removed easily?
Darlene,
The material in this video is FDC Intermediate Sign vinyl and is permanent.
We carry the Wall Vinyl from FDC which can also be cut using the Silhouette cutter.
FDC Wall vinyl can be removed without damaging the surface it was applied to.

I need some glitter vinyl
Hi. Can i use Car Wrap Vinyl Sticker Sheet on this Cutter?
Hello,
We do not do much with this material so I can not give you a definite answer based on experience.

Any static cling vinyls? No tape?
