Thank you so much! I just bought a used Silhouette and I made my first decal! It says "Blessed" and I certainly feel that way thanks to you. New Subscriber Here! XOXO
Wow. You are the FIRST Silhouette Cameo video that I could actually understand! THANK. YOU.
Great video, thank you so much! I was having trouble getting started with my Cameo, but your videos have made everything so easy to understand! Thank you!
I'm about to purchase my first Silhouette Cameo. Thanks for your demonstration. It's really helpful!
Thank you so much!! This worked out just great!!! This was my first time cutting vinyl with Cameo and had to pat myself on the back and it was just great!!! Thank you again!
Hey Megan! I just started following you and I look forward to you teaching me all kinds of stuff! I am int'd in vinyl crafting.
THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU for this tutorial!!! It was veryyyy helpful.
I love your craft room! Thanks for this video :)
Great video - thanks so much for all the detail!
thank you for your amazing presentation very good.
Great Video Megan!! Thanks for the tutorial!!!
Very helpful, thank you!!!!
I just love your video. . . It is lively and non-intimidating! I like that you, too, believe in saving money where you can. Blue painters tape, huh? Who would have thought. . .what a great idea! The one thing I would like to see is how you made your "enjoy" vinyl motto.
Great video!
I Love it !!!
I love all your videos. Thanks for this tip. I've noticed that you have a lot of different cutters like the cricut, silhouette cameo, ecraft, ect... I was wondering if you could do a video comparing all of the different die-cutting machines you have. That way people who are not sure what machine is right for them can see how they all work and compare.
Thank you so much! I am going to try this. I'm new :)
Can u do a video on how to load vinyl from a silhouette cameo 2 the touchscreen version I. Having a hard time.
Nice work
Thanks so much for this tutorial.
I love that font you used- what is it called?!
Love how this site uses the pop-up menu screen to aid the viewer with the steps used for parts of the demonstration. I only yesterday learned about the Silhouette while reading a blog I received. I'm not artistic, but interested in creating stencils to use in Subway Art using Chalk Paint. I want to create my own stencils and possibly sell them, if the product is of the quality needed. I'm wondering whether the Silhouette is capable of working with .007 mil mylar which is the thickness of stencils I've purchased from vendors on eBay. Thanks for any assistance.
Where is your video using transfer tape with the vinyl cutting?
Thanks a million for the video...
thanks so much! What is the font you used for the word enjoy?
looking for your vinyl transfer video ?
Fantastic Tutorial. I learned so much in just 8 minutes!! Do you recall what font was used?
could you use the part you peeled away as a template to paint onto something?
Hi! Can you link to the video you're referring to with the vinyl on plaque?
I second what bluebellecrafts said. Also it would be nice if you did tutorials such as this one with the ecraft. I just got one and love it but I'm a visual learner and need to look at Yt videos to learn how to work it.
You can use a clear/translucent low tack adhesive paper to place over the letters, release them from the backing and then lay the whole word out at once. It would be much easier to deal with than placing each letter individually without the threat of distorting the overall appearance.
In short use transfer paper/film
One tip that might be helpful-- when you're referencing your other videos, go into annotation and add links to those videos, as well. It will be a great to have accessible links to the blue painter's tape video, and some other relevant videos you've done. (P.S. I just got a cameo so I'm ready to have fun with it! You're video was helpful). Thanks!

i know I am kinda randomly asking but do anybody know a good site to watch new series online ?
@Kingsley Orion Try flixzone. You can find it by googling =)
@Kingsley Orion lately I have been using flixzone. Just google for it :)
@Kingsley Orion I watch on Flixzone. You can find it by googling :)
Mine done the same thing. I found the Vinyl was cut crooked so I cut it with my paper trimmer and it cuts fine now.
can you use any picture or own saying by designing it yourself on WordArt? or do you MUST only use the patterns and lettering sold by the manufacture of machine.
I'm having trouble cutting my vinyl with or without a mat. When I load it, it starts to cut and then makes the vinyl go all goofy. I've adjusted the white rollers as it shows on the cutting for the silhouette, but it still doesn't cut properly. Could you please give me some more information in regards to this?
Thanks Denise
I'm having trouble with my vinyl that when I peel my vinyl, the cutout stuck on the original backing paper. Is there a way to fix this or did I buy a bad vinyl?
hi can you cut out rhine stones templates with the craft robo ??? thanks
Just got my cameo 3, i'm totally lost. we are wanting to cut vinyl for T-Shirts, I can't seem to figure out when to weld, when to group, when to cut inside out or outside in...I'm pretty sure i've figured out blade settings, and sending the image to the cutter, but the tricks for the cut seem to confuse me
I just received my silhouette . I was very excited to get started ! So To trying to cut out vinyl . It's telling me to set my cutting tool on 1 . But it's cutting through my paper and almost threw my cutting board . Then I decided to practice on card stock . set my Cutting tool on 3 same issue . It also sounds like my machine is straining to cut can you tell me what I'm doing wrong .? HELP PLEASE
What font did you use for the "enjoy" text?
can you do a tutorial on how to make a personalized bottle water label
using the cameo. Thanks
Thank you for the helpful video. I followed all of your directions-but it failed! First of all, I couldn't get the right roller to move for the 12 inch vinyl. I went ahead and tried to cut my pattern, but I got an error message saying that the registration failed. I did have the Cameo on the media load setting. I am very frustrated- I have lots of ideas, but can't get started! Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.
I selected vinyl setting one and it didnt cut through the vinyl
this is very good and I want how make picture (photo )

Any way to cut a decal inside a decal?
Great video, thanks! I am probably going to purchase one of these bad boys. :) Btw - has anyone ever told you that you look a little bit like Kelly Clarkson?
From the other videos I've seen I believe so.
When I try to load without a mat, it just slides through and messes the project up because it moves around. Is there a place to tighten, so it will not slide right through? thank you
i had the same problem
what if you don't have access to internet? can I still use it? can't find any answers on you tube.

im hoing you can help me. i am trying to cut an imange on vinyl for a coffee mug for a dayhome fathers day project with all my kids. this is the first time i have used my cameo. is there a step by step that you have that i could follow.
look up scrapdaworld she has a great tutorial on this ;)
wowzer!! I just bought the cameo today..I tried my 1st cut and it went bad? I got to the screen, typed in "the city of champions" in a "handwriting" font...loaded my vinyl (silhouette brand), and clicked "cut". What I got was tiny little scratches....I had the blades to #1? What went wrong? LOL Im going to try again...Thx Uzi
Hey there, if you're using the premium vinyl first of all make sure you select vinyl as your medium in the settings. The default settings you need to see (& work) are blade #2, speed 8, depth 9.
Also make sure the font is appropriate for cutting. some very skinny fonts will not cut well because there is not enough width to be able to lift off the word. If the font is too thin, I will sometimes make a thin offset so that it is a bit thicker. Also, on the cameo, some things are meant to be "sketches" and not "cuts", therefore, it would only work like handwriting it and not make a "bubble letter" to cut it out.
number5ful depth 9/10
How much do they cost?
Hi, I have a question! I just got a Cameo for Christmas and am learning how to use it. I understand how to load and cut the vinyl, but every time I've cut it, my blade is catching on letters and picking them up at making it get all caught in my machine. I made sure the blade is on 1, but I'm still not sure what else I can do so that it cuts in nicely without ruining any of it. Please help!
Have you checked to see if there is any vinyl caught up inside your blade cartridge? I had the same problem and cleaning that out plus slowing my speed helped a ton. Good luck.
Julie, I'm having the exact same problem! Also my sheet of vinyl is sticking badly to the carrier sheet. [the instructions that came with the vinyl said to use the carrier sheet]. Any suggestions anyone?
Where did you get the straight rotary edge cutter?
+Light Brothers Woodworks pretty much... ANYWHERE!!!

I am having trouble moving the roller on the left to cut my vinyl.
+Mrscreative47 I've only had my Cameo for a couple of hours and haven't cut anything yet but I'm pretty sure that the left roller is fixed and you can only move the right roller.
+Jim Root Mine is still in the box :)
Hello,
I tried cutting vinyl but it keeps lifting up. I followed your instructions. The size is 1/2 in to 1 inch. Hope you can help. Thanks
Shirely...I've abandoned the Bubble Jet recipe. Just not enough luck with it. Tried to respond to you, but you are a NO REPLY BLOGGER and I don't know how else to contact you except to message you here! Sorry! Rebecca
Hi Rebecca,
So what do you use to ensure that the ink will not bleed?
Thanks
My Silhouette Cameo doesn't look like yours.. I must have a new version. There's no cut icon.. it's "Send to Silhouette". Other than that it's the same, but the first vinyl cut scrunched up the vinyl. It's all wrinkled. :(
I can't get the cameo to cut anything at all on 1 setting I went up to 5 and it won't cut all. The way through the vinyl
Judy Zeigler I can't either. I have been looking for tons of videos and I can't find the video I need.
Emily Claire
Judy Zeigler there are some sign u need to follow on the blade. if you rotate it wrong.. you will not cut the vinyl as the blade has angle to fit.
I would manipulate your images in photoshop or something similar - the Cameo accepts custom designs
transfer will help...
Do i have to buy the silhouette cameo cd for creating the design?
I guess she doesn't monitor her youtube video... there is a Silhouette store which you might have to sign up for. I've had my machine for four months...and still can't figure it out. AND videos like these are frustrating to watch because She doesn't show Everything from start to finish.
The Cameo comes with a program called Silouette Studio that you can use to create your designs. You can also download it from their site.
nothing could go wrong yea right I ruined so much vinyl cutting without the mat for the first time.
amazing how "enjoy" jumped 4 inches higher....
All vinyl is removable with a bit of work but you wont be able to reuse the vinyl - as for printing - you need a special machine
Darn, I came on here just to specifically see how to use the transfer tape. Oh well.
I've been cutting vinyl for years and wanted to see how the Cameo cut. But when you peeled off the vinyl without any transfer tape, I just cringed!!
give me all your extra vinyl then
this ABSOLUTELY, POSITIVELY DID NOT work at all, as my rollers pulled in the vinyl and then pushed it back, it got all bunched up under the rollers and created a horrible jam. I did exactly these steps, so why didn't it work for me? :(
+Valerie Richardson You forgot to add web magic!
what is web magic
It's magic.
It is also a secret... I've said too much... here they come. Crappppppp.....
you look american
TOO BAD
