Thanks for the great video. Now that 2 hurricanes have passed & we have power I have had a quick chance to do one practice. Bless those that much more damage than us. One question though you say a fill image. Did the image come that way or you used the sketch panel?
I'm so glad to hear that you're OK! The damage that these storms have caused is heartbreaking. I used the fill feature in the specialty tools panel. The sketch panel would work, as well.
Thank you. I have a Cameo 4 pro that I have used very little...I would like to emboss. Is embossing only avail. with the Cameo 5? If I get a 5 will I be able to use all my other tools/blades/software (paid for the version that let's me import SVGs). Thank you.
The embossing tools can be used with the Curio 2 or the Cameo 5. There are some other brand embossing tools that can be used with the older models, but they will void the warranty on the machine. Your blades will still work with the 5, and the Software upgrade will transfer, as well. That is a lifetime purchase.
I just opened my embossing mat that I bought with the cameo 5, so I've had it for ages, had never had the gumption to try til now. None of the comb looking things in there. Can I substitute washi tape or something?
I'm one of the people who has been waiting for this! Thank you. I need to buy the tool and mat. They are not easy to come by! Thank you for making the video. Is there any particular card stock weight you'd recommend or any one to avoid for the best results?
Sorry it took so long!! I used 80lb cardstock, no texture for the card. I was nervous to try anything thinner than that. The silver cardstock that I used for the sentiment was even thicker. Silhouette does make an embossing paper, but I can't ever catch it in stock.
I had the mat forever before I actually used it. IDK why it seemed so scary. LOL. I did cut on mine, but you want to be careful with the settings so that you don't ruin your mat.
thanks for the great video :) but my problem is i can't select" Curio 2 (emboss)" as a cutting mat. do you know if this is only possible with a business edition? i only do have the basic version
You might need to actually connect a curio for this option. If you can't bring it up, just select 12x12 cutting mat and be aware that the placement might be a bit different. It shouldn't be off by much, but give yourself a little wiggle room until you get used to it.
Yes! It's a replacement blade for plastic wrap holders. 😂 I found them on Amazon. It's not precise, but it works well for quick cuts on rolls of vinyl.
Bonjour de France :) j'ai regardé votre vidéo avec intêret et j'ai vu que vous coupiez ensuite sur le tapis de gaufrage. Je ne vais pas oser le faire pas de peur de l'abîmer, je ne suis pas assez experte lol Comment faire alors ? Faut-il découper d'abord la carte et ensuite mettre le tapis pour embosser ? J'attends cotre conseils en vous remerciant par avance

You can use a bit of painters tape.

Is that a cutter to the left of your mat?
Yes! It's a replacement blade for plastic wrap holders. 😂 I found them on Amazon. It's not precise, but it works well for quick cuts on rolls of vinyl.

You can cut, then move to the embossing mat. It might be difficult to get it in the right spot, though.
