Thank you!!
Besides a very informative video, I love the fact your voice is calm and easy to listen to. Some are too cheesy, too loud, or too much caffeine. lol I find I learn a lot more listening to you. Thanks
This is the video that needs to come with the new machine!
Thanks Kelly now I don't feel so lost. You rock girl
I’ve watched many videos since I purchased my Silhouette but this video taught me more than all of them combined. So many awesome tips and so easy to understand. THANK YOU!
Can’t believe I haven’t seen this. Great tutorial.
Never gets old. One of the best tutorials here in youtube
Thank you!
Thanks for sharing this video is very helpful..👍👍👍👍👍
Great video thank you. My ladys Grandma wants to learn all her machines and such. I offered to help, now we both are learning.
That's awesome! :)
@@CreateWithSilhouette Thanks 😇
u r a savior to broke people like myself but guess what i aint gone be broke for long I'm lost without u guys over there at silhoette Inc im glad i made the purchase.. keep up the knowledge videos....
Your video is wonderful. I have learned valuable tips. Thanks for taking me step by step and I love that you DO NOT have music playing in the background. I look forward to viewing your other tutorials.
I was so confused when I got my first machine ever. The Silhouette Cameo 3, I love it but I'm also a visual learner. All I've done up to this point is make simple decals. today I watched a video to learn how to do an offset. I didn't quite do it the way she did in the video but I did it. Yay me! I am so happy I found you and this channel. I want to learn everything I can do with my machine. And I want to eventually have it work for me financially. Love it when you don't talk so fast and I can keep up. Thanks again, great video.
Agree with you Pam. I've learned a lot as well! Did you ever print stickers or know where to get a good tutorial as this one for printing stickers?
Yay you! And thank you!
Kelly is a great teacher! Thank you so much for the tutorials!
I'm glad to hear it!!
Thank you for explaining the steps. Not so confused anymore. Will watch many times over.
Yay! Glad it helped! :)
Excellent teacher, I learned a lot. Thank you Silhouette!
I swear.. this is one of my top favorite tutorials ever. Thank you
Thank you!!
Fantastic!!!!!
I have been using my Silhouette since 2014 and learned more today than in all these years.
So many time savings tips.
Thanks for sharing
Thank you, Tonya! I'm so glad to hear it!
Hi Kelly, I have my first cameo 4 recently and do not any about it, but This tutorial was very helpful for me, Your explanation is clear and easy, now I am getting friendly with it. thank you so munch 🙏
Great video! Kelly makes a great teacher. It's great to know what's available to use especially when our retailers don't advertise the whole line.
Very helpful!
I LOVE THIS VIDEO, IT HAS HELPED ME LEARN A LOT. I WANT TO BUY A SILHOUETTE.
Hi Kelly, Another great video, you are a very good teacher, a lovely calm voice, easy to listen too, TFS, Cheers Anna.
Awesome video! I really learned a lot! Can't wait to open up my cameo 4 Box and heat presser !!.
Great video with step by step guidance. I am a beginner and it helped a lot
The BEST instructional video I’ve seen, thank you so much!!!
I use a Cricut Maker, but appreciate this video.
Great tutorial and video. Always use colored vinyl, so it is easier to see in your videos.
I agree with you about not using white vinyl when filming. It is not easy to see.
Thank you Kelly,
I have made a couple of name frames before by trial and error, but I have learned a lot from this video. I will approach future projects with a lot more confidence now.
I'm so happy to hear it! :)
Thank you so much, some very handy hints, especially with the upgraded business edition examples.
I am a new user and found this video the most helpful of all the videos I watched so far. Great job thank you so very much. I feel more confident now and am willing to tackle my projects without fear. Will be looking for more of your videos.
Not sure if I can pull this off. I am going to get a used one of these and see if I can use this to make signs for my properties. If it works out I will buy a new one with all the features that I want. I will go with the Silhouette brand though and not some no name machine as they seem to be reliable and have readily available software, parts, and supplies from what I have found thus far, which I am guessing will give me the best chance of success and sustainability.
Great video!
If you used the scraper with more pressure you wouldn’t have so much trouble getting the vinyl off. Also the larger side works best for this.
Great video Kelly!! I'm so glad I watched this. I've had vinyl rolls for a long time but I've been intimidated to try things like two or three color designs. You have given my inspiration to try everything you showed in the video. Looks like I'll be making some inexpensive Christmas presents, thanks!
Thanks, Donna! I hope you love using vinyl now!
I’m considering purchasing a Cameo just for personal use glad I found this tutorial
i don't know you but you share really helpful information and for that i thank you
Great video! I received a lot of information in the presentation. You were very informative and very hands on along with a lot of visuals. That made the video even better! Thanks for the info.
more skills learned - excellent tutorial - loved the mixed projects content all in one video Kelly #impressedagain
Great!!!
Very usefull, thanks a lot! :)
Hi there! I’ll start to watch your videos! Enjoyed the first one. I didn’t take your class at ATS but I know you were there.
I was! I hope you like the videos. :)
Kelly is the best! :)
That was very helpful, Thanks alot..
This was very helpful in understanding Cameo basics. Thanks Kelly!
Hi there. Can you use the transfer tape with htv or only with sticker vinyl and can you please tell me what is the difference between application tape and transfer tape is?
Transfer tape for vinyl is usually different than transfer tape for heat transfer material. (With HTV it usually comes already applied to its transfer backing or the necessary transfer tape comes in the package with the HTV.) I believe application tape is probably just another term for transfer tape. Same thing, as far as I know.
How durable is this material once its on 3D objects? Does it peel or scrape off easily? Could it have commercial applications for example labeling product bottles?
The durability of your vinyl application has a lot to do with the surface it is applied to. If the surface is completely slick and smooth, the vinyl will last longer than if it is applied to a surface with some texture to it. Vinyl is great for labeling bottles.
Hi, I did a first cut with my brand new cameo 4 and it worked, now I am trying to do a long page of words and using black matte, but it won't allow me to register, I think the black matte is the reason as it cannot pick up any registration marks..? Any tips for fix the issue?
Do not turn on registration marks when cutting vinyl. (The software registration marks are only for use when you are printing from Silhouette Studio and then cutting.)
I just found the rest of your videos! I am soooo happy!
Omg I love you already lol 😁😁😁😘 thanks for these videos
These videos are awesome! Helped me a lot :)
This was sooo informative!
Thank you!
Thank you! I'm so glad to hear it. :)
Thank you! This is helpful and easy to understand.
This is very VERY helpful. Thank you so much for sharing this great tutorial!!
You are so very welcome! Thank you!
Your tutorials are amazing!
Thank you!
Love your tutorials!
Thank you!
Hello
I m from India. Love the way of your teaching. Got lots of idea nd information
Can I buy cameo 4 from usa and use in India? It will work? What type of other projects we can make from cameo 4 sillouette? On what type of products we can stick adhesive vinyl or other vinyl?
@kelly, Please reply
very helpfull. Thank you!
Hi....great video....how to order GLOSSY vinyl?
It's in the Silhouette Shop, sold as Glossy Vinyl. www.silhouetteamerica.com/shop/materials/vinyl-glossy-12 (You can sometimes find it on Amazon, too.)
Is there a video for Register Failed during vinyl cutting?
Thanks for this great tutorial... i 'm watching it while weeding for the first time with my new cameo 4 .I would really like to know what kind of brand closet is in the back ground..i loveit!!
Hi! That sounds awesome! It's called a Scrap Box. Here is their website www.theoriginalscrapbox.com/
CreateRoom
Thank you for this useful and lovely video,, but if I use this on cups couldn’t it gets off or get damaged while using or washing.. I mean isn’t it better to use heat vinyl?! Thanks again
Yes, you need to be careful when washing cups with vinyl and do not expect it to last forever. You can use heat transfer vinyl on a mug, but it gets tricky to apply unless you have a mug press.
Queria participar da promoção da Silhouette alta assisti todos os vídeos mas porque não consegui participar? NÃO ENCONTREI O LINK ! HELP !
Can the portrait be used for this?
Yes it can! The Portrait cuts vinyl beautifully!
Hi Kelly love the video thanks! Do you have that turquoise on sale?
You can find it under glossy adhesive vinyl as the color "teal". I love this color! www.silhouetteamerica.com/shop/materials/vinyl-glossy-12
This is a great jumping-off point for me. A few issues though. The two-color vinyl sticker demo (around 24 minutes in) would have been easier to follow if one of the layers had not been white vinyl. It's really hard to see exactly what you're doing with that. Also, why are you making your own registration marks and not using the software registration marks?
Sorry about the white on white. Software registration marks are for printed projects. Since this is adhesive vinyl and not for printing, I created my own registration marks to be used in a different way. They're used for physical placement instead of for use with the machine's optical eye.
Very helpful video - so far the best I’ve seen of dozens on web!! thank you very much - most of your information can be handed over with a Cameo 4 is this correct?
I’ve seen that using the roll glossy vinyl you don’t use the matte. So the matte is most used to help the grip of smaller sizes?
How can we define about the level of pressure, speed and adjustment of the blade? Should we leave everything by default or we adjust accordingly.
Is also there need of special transfer tape depending of the vinyl we’re using or applying in different products? For e.g. on a mug or t-shirt is that the same transfer tape?
I also. Notice you use almost for everything glossy Vinyl - do you recommend to use it for everything?
About the layering part - what about if I have for example a logo where the colors overlap each other. How can that be adjusted when I need to print them?
As I can see here in your example there’s no overlap of content.
By any chance you have a video for stickers?
Yes, most of this is the same for the Cameo 4 (but the Cameo 4 has a built-in roll feeder).
Glossy vinyl and matte vinyl are basically the same except for the strength of the adhesive (and the glossy or matte finish). You can generally use the same cut settings for either one. The glossy vinyl has a stronger adhesive, so I prefer glossy over matte for most uses, but that's personal preference.
Start with the default pressure, speed, and blade depth...then make test cuts to see if you need to adjust from there.
You can use the same type of transfer tape for all forms of adhesive vinyl, but for something like a T-shirt you would use heat transfer vinyl, which comes with its own transfer liner. See this video on Heat Transfer Essentials. th-cam.com/video/eaFvNQYhM3k/w-d-xo.html
See my note about glossy vinyl above. Matte is good if you want to remove it sooner (like on walls).
You can layer vinyl layers directly on top of each other because they are so thin. Or use the Subtract function to remove parts of the design that are covered by other parts of the design.
You'll want to use Print & Cut for stickers. See my video on Print & Cut Perfection. th-cam.com/video/SJwvzf5q16Y/w-d-xo.html
Good luck!
Hi I just bought a cameo and i am just learning how the software works. Your video's seem to be very helpful for someone that has the business software but do you have videos for the software that comes with the machine? Thanks so much:)
All of my videos work with the standard edition of Silhouette Studio unless I specifically point out certain features that require an upgrade like Designer Edition or Business Edition. Don't let that stop you!
Hmm I am totally new to this and was thinking of venturing into this as well..How do we control the strength of the cutter? Wouldn't it cut thru the mat or leave cut markings on it after each work? If the cut strength can be adjusted, can the Sihouette machine emboss patterns on paper surfaces such as on card stock? Thank you.
You should use default settings to cut your materials, and adjust the force and blade depth as necessary, based on test cuts of your material. It won't cut through the mat at the correct settings, although it does leave a residual mark that is not harmful to your mat. After you've cut a lot of projects you'll have ghost traces of all those cut jobs on your mat, which is completely normal. If you want to have a machine that does embossing, you'd want to look into the Silhouette Curio, which is different from the Cameo. It does not emboss card stock as it needs a softer material like Score & Emboss paper.
Kelly Wayment Thank you. Really appreciate the information. Will really consider purchasing :) Have a blessed Christmas and a happy new year! Love your videos. 😊
Hi Kelly, Thank you for the info. So how long does the vinyl last on the mug? Is it OK to wash the mug over and over?
Is the transfert paper reusable if I want to make a serie of the same vinyl design to stick on several bottles for exemple ? Instead of cutting one piece for each vinyl (to avoid wasting too much)
Absolutely! Use the same piece of transfer tape until it gets too dirty or is no longer sticky enough for picking up and transferring designs.
great class! one question, when applying to a mug, is there the need of something to finish it? for example, i've seen some people baking the mug for the desing "stick" better... is that needed with vinyl? or just when you do it with a pen? and can the mug with the vinyl go to the microwave or dishwasher? thanks!
I personally just use permanent (glossy) vinyl on a mug and do not finish it. Hand washing is recommended, but I've got some mugs that have been through the dishwasher many times and it still sticks. I believe there is a dishwasher-specific mod podge if you want to add a finishing layer. Mugs with vinyl can be microwaved, as far as I know. (I do it.)
followed your directions. didn't work. then discovered this particular piece of vinyl I had - did NOT have a cover sheet. A video on how to approach that would be very helpful. thank you.
Hi! Can silhouette curio work with adhesive vinyl?
Yes, it can. You would use the full platforms to equal 6 and use the grid cutting mat as the top platform. Place your vinyl on the cutting mat, as it won't feed directly into the Curio. Test your settings, as well, because with a material that thin there can be some variation between the Cameo cut settings and Curio cut settings.
why would you use white vinyl to show (or not show) how to weed a design?
Don't the vinyl decals wash off mugs and bottles easily, or am I missing something?
If you use permanent vinyl, let it sit for 24 hours before first washing, and then wash by hand, you should be able to keep those designs on your mugs for a long time! They are not permanent for years and years, but they will last through multiple washings with care.
Hello, thank you for providing these videos. Question, when stencilling a phase, do you need to mirror before printing the stencil?
No, regular vinyl phrases and stencils from vinyl with phrases do not need to be mirrored. You typically mirror heat transfer material, but do not mirror adhesive vinyl.
Can you do the same thing with the silhouette portrait
Absolutely! The software is the same and the machine capability is the same; it's just smaller.
where do i find the earring bundles that you were talking about
Hello lovely! Love your videos, I have ordered this machine, I would like to make and sell stickers, have you got a certain video for this purpose please?
You should watch Print & Cut Perfection, which is what you'd be using to create stickers. th-cam.com/video/SJwvzf5q16Y/w-d-xo.html
Hello! I liked the video, I have a question, how do I have to make the design of a phrase to stick it with vinyl in a bottle of wine (thinking that I want to go around the phrase around the bottle)
Make sure the bottle is flat where you will be applying it, for best results. If it's a phrase that will wrap all the way around, use the same techniques shown several times in the video, but start applying with transfer tape on one side (left or right end) and press it down from one end to the other before removing the transfer tape.
hello i want to start bussiness like this. but i dont know what material i need. can i ask what material you use. thank you.
The material in this video is adhesive vinyl. You can start here with glossy vinyl, then don't forget to also buy transfer tape. www.silhouetteamerica.com/shop/materials/vinyl-glossy-12
using white vinil as an example was a terrible idea, btw... but thanks for posting these, is actually very helpful to someone like me who never worked with it before
I ve a question mam can we download silhouette cameo 3 software on any laptop? I ve 16 Bit dell laptop.. Can i download in this 16 bit laptop?
Here's a link to the minimum system requirements. Please reach out to Silhouette Support if you have further questions. www.silhouetteamerica.com/faq/solution/software-minimum-system-requirements
Thanknu for the great great tutorial.
The vinyl you used in mobile case, is that heat transfer vinyl or sticker vinyl? Thank u
Everything in this video is adhesive (sticker) vinyl.
I just got my silhouette cameo 3 and I am so excited to try these out. However, the autoblade can’t seem to cut out my cardstock board which is around 300 gsm. Any help?
You need to adjust your blade settings to cut thicker cardstock. I'm not sure what setting to try for 300 gsm, but possibly the coverstock setting? If you need help, you can contact Silhouette Support. www.silhouetteamerica.com/contact
Hi. Could I use a mirror image of a design and not have to use the transfer tape? Thank you for this video!
The reason you use the transfer tape is to keep all the cutout pieces together, otherwise you would be hand-placing each piece. Mirroring wouldn't help with that.
Can it cut card stock or paper?
Hi Arlyne! Yes! It can cut cardstock, paper, sticker papers, vinyl, heat transfer, vellum, and more! :)
Are the mugs washable with the vinyl on it? Doesn't it need to 'heat' first after applying the vinyl? Great video!
I hand wash my mugs with vinyl on them. You don't need to heat it, but it will probably stay best if you let it sit 24 hours before using or washing. Don't expect vinyl on mugs to last forever! :)
Ya''ll had to use white vinyl as the sample. You know we can't see the design that was cut. Bad color to use on camera. But I did learn some basics.
how many times can you use your transfer tape? tnx
Use transfer tape over and over until it gets too dirty or otherwise unusable. I've got some I've used 5-10 times.
No. I've only done decals and Waterslides on my printer.
Can you use the transfer tape more than once?
Hi! It becomes a little less adhesive but you can try it more than once! :)
@@CreateWithSilhouette thank you!
The portait2 cuts up top what size compare to the cameo3?
And how long?
The Portrait 2 cuts up to 8 inches wide and 12 inches long on the mat. Longer, if you are cutting vinyl or heat transfer straight from the roll with no mat.
How long do the blades last roughly ?
My blades tend to last 3-6 months, depending on what I'm cutting. Rough materials (lots of cardstock or chipboard) will wear down a blade faster than mostly vinyl.
Why do you have to add the lines?
Lines help with weeding. It's easier to remove small sections of sticky vinyl rather than large sections all at once.
What storage system is featured in the background? It looks lovely!
Could you post a link to them?
It is a CreateRoom DreamBox.
Some very useful info, but can I suggest that for visual things like this, white vinyl on a white background is not the most helpful
Thank you for the feedback! :)
Wat vinyl is this htv?
This video only uses adhesive vinyl. HTV (heat transfer vinyl) is covered in our Heat Transfer Essentials class, found here. th-cam.com/video/eaFvNQYhM3k/w-d-xo.html
You separated your designs by adding lines
What font were you using through your tutorial?
Most of the designs were not fonts. There's a full list of every design and font for this class at the end of the corresponding eBook. www.silhouette101.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/10/ebook-vinyl-all-the-things.pdf
Сколько смотрю подобное и не понимаю зачем клеить например на кружку. это же не практично. отвалится после мытья. потом клиент придёт и скажет что я сделал ему полное г**** которое отвалилось.
