⭐ ABOUT ME: ⭐
Hi there! My name is Beatriz Penas and I'm a portuguese illustrator, nice to meet you! I've been taking my illustration more seriously and making a business out of it since the beggining of 2019. I'm always trying to create more illustrations and more products and I thought it would be nice to share my process! Hope you like my vídeos and my work.

[@neldasturgill8080]

Instead of erasing a small bit to release the images so you have a red cut line only around the contoured images try "release compound path" on the right click menu. That should release everything and allow you to continue with choosing just the contoured images to have a cut line. I hope that makes sense! I love the Silhouette Studio program it is so much more intuitive than the cricket. Not sure what edition you have but the Business edition is worth the price for all the extra that it does. They usually have a sale around Black Friday where it is half (or almost half) price off.

[@aPenasIllustrator]

[@caveirarj]

Hello Beatriz! Obrigado por este vídeo completo, mostrando o processo de uma ponta à outra, realmente muito didático. Apesar dele já ser antiguinho no canal, ainda continua bem útil e atual, sem dúvida. Comprei recentemente uma Cameo 5 e começo a me aventurar no incrível mundo dos auto-colantes (e tb estou em Lisboa =). Fiquei apenas com umas pequenas dúvidas, se pudesse me ajudar por favor: 1) No começo do vídeo mostrou o vinil e os papéis da Evergreen. No caso desta impressão, acabou por usar qual? 2) Na hora de imprimir a partir do photoshop, vi que não selecionou nenhum tipo de papel ou alta qualidade de impressão (ou foto), por exemplo. Tb tenho a Canon PIXMA IX6850 (inspirado por vc!) e ainda estou a encontrar as melhores configurações para ela, uma vez que a caixa de diálogo de impressão no MAC é extremamente limitada e cartesiana na minha opinião; 3) Vi que entre o "kiss-cut" e o "full-cut" a única diferença na configuração da lâmina foi na "Força". Mas não alterou a profundidade, que permaneceu no 3. Como força é relativa a resistência do material, a profundidade da lâmina aqui faria mais sentido pra mim (um corte mais raso e o outro mais fundo). Muito obrigado! ;)

[@aPenasIllustrator]

Que bom! Tenho na lista fazer um mais atualizado :D 1 . No video penso que usei o de papel :) Neste momento continuo a usar o papel da evergreen mas uso o vinil da PPD. 2 . A caixa do Mac não é limitada! Tem de instalar primeiro o driver da impressora (disponível no site da canon) e só depois disso instalar a impressora no Mac. Aí vai ficar com imensa opções. Uso a opção de papel matte. No video não aparece porque já tenho essas seleções todas pre-guardadas :) 3 . Tenho uma silhouette antiga, então a alteração na profundidade tem de ser feita manual e a acabo por nunca mexer nessa opção no software. Mas uso sempre no 6 para tudo e é suficiente para ter alteração do kiss cut e full cut :) Pelo menos funciona para mim e já o faço assim desde que a tenho. Espero que ajude! :)

Hola Bea! Thank you so much for such a complete video! I wanted to ask why you use Photoshop to print an exported PDF, is it because of colors/print quality? I haven't had PS for many years now, and Im wondering if there are any options for Mac. Thanks again and saludos from Costa Rica!

[@aPenasIllustrator]

Hiii! It was when I was using my PC, printing from the silhouette studio the colours never turned how I wanted. Now on my Mac I print directly and it doesn’t affect them. So no longer use that method. But if you are having that problem, printing from photoshop really helped me :) and yes you can use it on the Mac as well as other similar programs!

I can get the images to be individual and when I highlight the entire sticker sheet it does put boxes around them but when I click on them,, nothing happens. Not sure what I am missing......

I’m not sure what the problem is! You’re not able to select the stickers individually?

[@lisaw8]

Hi Beatriz, Great Video! I’m wondering in the beginning you say you export from Procreate to another canvas in Procreate. Can you explain step by step how to do that please. What are your thoughts of the #4 version? I have a Mac, so want to be sure it will work well before I buy it

[@silverlining_1995]

It’s procreate on the iPad right? How did you transfer the file to your pc? Can you just use the cord or was there another method? I realize this is probably basic but oddly it’s the part I’m unsure of since I’ve never done that. The rest I have an idea for…

[@chumicin4066]

Hiii! It's a really good tutorial, thank you! But i have 2 questions of your process: 1. Why do you work in RGB? and not in CMYK? If you are printting the image? 2. I have tried to optimize the format by having the greatest number of sticker sheets in the layout, however my cameo does not read the registration marks if I have a cut or drawing mark on the hatching around the registration marks. Do you have any tips to make it work for you? Thank you very much!

[@aPenasIllustrator]

I work on Procreate, working in CMYK makes the colours very different. I use the things I do a lot for digitally, like portfolios and such, so I choose to work on RGB because of that as well. I did some tests and the colours dont change that much, most home prints are ready for that. You have to leave some milimiters to the cutting marks, otherwise the machine won't cut! 😊

[@aoife3636]

Do you need the additional software add Ons for silhouette? I’d decided on a silhouette over a cricut after seeing this or one you’re other videos. But while checking proces seen you can also buy additional software? Does this mean you can only do so much with a silhouette machine unless you buy the extra software? I know for cricut it’s all free youd just pay for the extra designs kinda thing.

[@aPenasIllustrator]

Heeeey! There’s a paid version of the silhouette studio, but for regular work is not needed! Only if you need to cut with more than one machine at the same time and it’s a one time payment. But so far I never had to get it, the free software is enough :)

[@aoife3636]

[@SammyHeredia]

How did you prevent pixelated stickers, I changed the setting on procreate and it looks great. Once I transfer them too silhouette it shows a lot of pixels TIA

[@aPenasIllustrator]

It happens when printed? Never had that problem. Try to install other versions of the Silhouette studio, sometimes it helps fixing some issues!

[@rochelle..]

I noticed you have your design in the crosshatch part of the registration marks…Does it not confuse the cutter being too close to the registration marks?

[@aPenasIllustrator]

Not really, I always print the designs like this and it's all good :)

[@crochetholic985]

Please help my bottom registration mark isn’t printing full and the cutter is completely off centre

How off was your colour printing from silhouette? My first prints are totally off but then again my printer and Cameo 4 and sticker paper are all new and untested. Did you have to do any special calibrations in photoshop?

[@aPenasIllustrator]

They were really off, no matter I changed the setting for the printers it didn't changed a lot when printing from there 🤭 I do the calibrations on the printer settings but printing in photoshop makes all the difference.

J'ai vu que sous Procreate on peut enregistrer les calques séparément, cela solutionnerait le souci du fond décoratif non?

[@michellefrank3952]

I go in the expand selection and change the color to blue on each one that i want to cut, and it separates the layers into two, one red, one blue, and that prevents me from cutting letters, decorations, etc as i only cut the blue lines. Also, when you save as png instead of jpg, that tends to make the colors not in cmyk, but in rgb, which is why you have to switch your color profile when making it a pdf.

[@aPenasIllustrator]

I do like I explained because I can't select them separatly once I upload the PNG! I print everything in RGB, I did some colours comparation and I don't see a lot of difference. I heard most of house printers are ready to do the conversion automatically, but I can be wrong :)

[@booksandsatationarystore5546]

hi hello nice helpful video thanks your smile is very beautifull i love you

[@dalbibit]

Actually I had the cuts thing happen with me as well when I was first trying out the silhouette. It turns out it’s the pdf file and how it’s generated. Silhouette studio basically saves pdfs by converting to image but also by splitting them instead of, for instance like photoshop, saving it in a single image pdf. It also affects the scale and quality! If you’re printing out from a saved pdf and feel like you keep having inaccurate/unaligned cuts it’s most likely because of that. Because what’s on file is a different scale of what’s printed! It’s a minute difference of a few millimeters but it’s enough to get half a sheet go wrong. And if you use procreate generated drawings I advise passing them through photoshop or similar and correct the white levels as there’ll be tiny artifacts when printing even in a white background😭💔

[@aPenasIllustrator]

Thank you so much, let's hope this helps someone! 😊 From what I heard that happens to a lot of people even when they send to print on the Silhouette Software on the preview, not exactly only when they put photoshop! 😊

[@dalbibit]

Amazing video Bia! It helped a lot, but i guess the hardest part is to find the right paper... i dont have evergreen goods here in my country (but most of sticker shops i've seen abroad use this brand too), would you recommend any other brand? Para mim a qualidade do papel influencia muito na qualidade da impressão...

[@aPenasIllustrator]

Thank you so much Carolina 💛 Yes, finding the right paper is also an important step, for sure! I only used and tried the ones from the video. But recently I bought a glossy vinyl sticker paper from PPD. But you can check in different international Amazon's, sometimes they ship all over the world :)

[@AprilSanPedro]

Hello Bea (I hope I spelled your name right). Thank you for sharing your process. I learned a lot. It’s quite challenging to look for a clearer tutorial about Silhouette just like this. Can I ask how do you fix mis align cutting? I get this problem most of the time even if the file has already cut perfectly before. So when I open the file again to reprint, sometimes, the alignment didnt match anymore. Anyway, I always enjoy watching your videos. Thank you for generously sharing your process ❤️.

[@aPenasIllustrator]

Hi April! Don't worry, some people write Bia and other Bea, there's no right way eheh (my name is actually Beatriz, so Bea makes the most sense lol). So so happy it helped! Have you tried to callibrate it manually? I did that in the beggining and it works. Sometimes it can also be needing you to upgrade the firmware of the machine. I was having some of those problems in the beggining, I did all of that and started to cut with the lid closed and it got way better :) You also need to be careful putting the print on the matt, sometimes that can influence the cutting as well! And make sure your printer is not moving the sheet around too much, check the allingments in the printer to make sure the sheet doenst move. Hope it helps! :)

Amazing! Thank for sharing. Can you update the link. I try find the white vynil and sticker paper on Amazon but I can find it 😔

[@aPenasIllustrator]

Sometimes it disappears :( I'm so sorry! I'll try to update the links

Thank you a brilliant video, I have the same machine and haven't used it for years.

[@aPenasIllustrator]

Hope you can use it now!! 😍

Great video, thank you for this! - May I ask what material you have the cut settings on ? I have this paper, but I am struggling so hard to cut my own stickers! - will try these settings though!

[@aPenasIllustrator]

I have custom settings for the paper I use, it depends on the sticker paper.. I have some vinyl stickers I have to pass 3 times to cut it all of eheh
