Silhouette Cameo layering cardstock tutorial

[@ComplexityUnveiled]

Very lucky kids to have a Mom that puts so much thought into their parties. Thanks for the tutorial.

[@angiec1222]

This is an awesome video. I know it's old, but I'm just now learning how to use my silhouette for scrapbooking. Thank you!!

[@rebeccavilla-arce8780]

Unbelievably good. I have been looking for days to find a tutorial that I can understand and covers the ways to deal with the problems that I have been having with a simple image. Your tutorial was able to help me create my images as I wanted and well as giving me a belief that I could tackle something like you were able to create. Thank you

[@staceycoburn4743]

I received a Cameo for Christmas and felt really overwhelmed. Your tutorial was clear, concise, and easy to follow. Thank you!

[@EtchedwithVinyl]

+Stacey Coburn So glad I could help! And congrats on getting your Cameo! You'll be hooked! I promise lol I use mine almost every day!

[@Ahyahahaha25]

i love your videos; they’re so easy to understand and you know when to zoom in and provide examples as needed. THANKS

[@bonniemclachlan3452]

Great Tutorial.. Thanks a lot! I get my Silhouette tomorrow and will be doing Paw Patrol decorations for my sons 3rd birthday!

[@mylor1410]

All of the party decor looks so cute

[@aprilnotescrafts]

Great tutorial! Thank you for showing so many awesome examples. I plan on using this in the future for a Doctor Who party. I also really love how easy you showed it is to find the images on Google. Thank you!

[@darlene2861]

Wow I love your samples and how to make them! Your daughter is going to have an awesome party.

[@lydiaalarcon6047]

I truly enjoyed your quick and simple tutorial. I'm new at using Sillouhette and it sure takes a lot of time watching other tutorials. Yours by far has been the best; and I've watched many. Can't wait to see your other tutorials. Excited! Lydia

[@EtchedwithVinyl]

+Lydia Alarcon Aw thank you so much!! I try to make them fairly quick and to the point! haha :)

[@patriciawinslow1554]

Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. I did a Disney (Mickey Mouse) party for my grandson's first BD using the Cricut. It was a lot of work. What you did is too, but I think using the Silhouette may have been a bit faster. I have a silhouette, but I did not know how to import other pictures. Now I do thanks to you.

[@EtchedwithVinyl]

+Patricia Winslow haha no problem! I'm glad I could help! :)

[@Maddox-e7o]

Great tutorial! Now i want to cut all the things!

[@Porscha64]

[@blancamartinez5410]

omg I'm thinking of getting a silhouette but not sure but you sure showed me alot thanks and wondering if you have a tutorial of invitations? so thanks loved it.

[@Zephyr_STKR]

Blanca Garza get the new one of this and not a cricut, u can't do things like this with the cricut at all and u are limited on the print n cut feature, this one is so much better if u want to do things like this. I regret getting my cricut. now I won't one of these. also u have to have internet using the cricut unlike this one.

[@barbarakellum5515]

Very helpful....I myself am wanting to learn the print and cut. I am wanting to put characters on Christmas ornaments so if you can show how to do that, that would be awesome. I am a newbie to the Silhouette world so a lot for me to learn. Thanks

[@EtchedwithVinyl]

+Barbara Kellum Glad I could help! I ran out of printer ink lol! So I'm hoping to get some more this weekend so I can keep working on the print and cut video. Aiming to get it posted up next week! :)

[@anapena9788]

Thanks so much, your video is very easy to understand, I want to ask you if a SVG file that is with lots layering is treated the same way. Is a file that I purchased from the silhouette studio. Thank you so much.

[@barbaraforth5387]

Love your 2 videos, thank you. Do you think you can make a video showing how to cut out text?

[@yoceelineesparza2105]

Love this! I'm planning my son first birthday party & I just bought my cameo 3. I'm so nervous because I don't know how to function it. Would you be able to do a barn invitation? Just to give me a little guide? Please and thank you 😀

[@patwilliams9730]

Great job,

[@EtchedwithVinyl]

+Pat Williams Thank you!

[@TheLibraFamily]

hello, your video i feel is the best one as in understanding. Im following the video but now im stuck at the making the eyes white and the group thing, plz help

[@csalinas1985]

great video keep up the great work very informative!! I am a newbie with my cameo I tried making my son's birthday decorations and failed miserably lol. that was the main reason I purchased my cameo oh well now I can keep practicing for next year lol

[@EtchedwithVinyl]

+L.B.M Cedillo Haha I've had mine for two years now and I'm still learning! Just keep at it and you'll get the hang of it!

[@csalinas1985]

Yes I will I love it so far have done small things here and there!!

[@EtchedwithVinyl]

+L.B.M Cedillo One thing I haven't tried yet is the rhinestones.. I'm thinking about asking "Santa" (aka the hubby) for some supplies :)

[@karenbonnetti-ramirez6264]

Thank you for the video. It is very good. I have a hard time weeding card stock. What type of card stock do you use for this kind of projects? What settings do you use in your Cameo? Love what you make for your daughter's b-day parties 🎉

[@lilystitch6848]

Great video, I subscribed! You're straight to the point and dont jump over small details that are important, nor do you ramble! One question. I've been doing this a while but recently switched from the cricut maker to the cameo 3 so I'm partially a newbie again (so SO happy I did!!). I have my own business and was wondering what weight of cardstock do you use? I recently started playing around with it but I can never find a weight that seems as sturdy as yours. I've tried plenty of different cardstock weights but cant get it right! Thanks for your time and keep rocking it!

[@danielleechols55]

I'm new to this and researching on how the machine works. I would be doing these kinds of projects in the video. My question is when you color the image with fill color does it print color on white card stock or do you have to buy different color card stock for what color you want image?

[@sandyeustace4596]

thanks for the video. keep it up

[@EtchedwithVinyl]

+Sandy Eustace Thank you so much!

[@cindynoriega8793]

Great video! Keep them comin plz 😊

[@EtchedwithVinyl]

+Cindy Noriega Thank you!! Will do! Just got a new hard drive for Christmas so I have more space for making videos! So excited!

[@poppyandbloomhomestead]

Thank you for your tutorials. They are very helpful. I recently got a cameo and I am super confused, I dont know how to do anything but cut vinyl. Do you have any suggestions on how I can get more familiar with my Silhouette? It seems really hard and I am getting frustrated with the thing : ) 1 more thing. I bought font lettering through the silhouette store and I dont know how to use them on the design page. Can you please help?

[@KimBanta]

Great job! Would you mind sharing where you get your plain colored card stock? I have all this fancy cardstock, but want just solid colors, but a nice quality. Thanks!

[@EtchedwithVinyl]

+Kim Banta Thank you so much! I got a bunch of plain solid colored cardstock at Michael's craft store. I think places like Joann's and Hobby Lobby probably carry the same kind of stuff also :)

[@casinoarcade4154]

amazing

[@EtchedwithVinyl]

+3RDIHigh Thanks!

[@cindiwisdom2143]

I want to say thank you for this video teaching me how to google images you are the BEST ! You really know how to go slow, so people can follow with you, and that what I have done. I do have a little problem and it's release compound on the cookie, I can't get it to release. What i'm I doing wrong? Please send me a txt or respond back Thank you so much.

[@wecandoanythingteam2031]

I am new to silhouette cameo and am excited to use it and have a quick question. When you load the cardstock to cut the pieces do you have to use the registration marks? Silly question I know but like I said I am new to this whole thing.

[@SuzyNobre1]

Hi! You just use registration marks when doing print and cut. In this case it is not necessary! =)

[@laurapenny1107]

love your video...i want to try ninja turtle for my grandson party

[@EtchedwithVinyl]

+Laura Penny Thank you! That would be super cute!

[@laurapenny1107]

+Etched with Vinyl I'm afraid to try

[@EtchedwithVinyl]

+Laura Penny Aww don't be! If you're worried about messing up, I would make some practice cuts on some scrap paper! I promise it's super easy, once you get the hang of it :) If you need any more help, just let me know!

[@laurapenny1107]

I will thats.thanks for being helpful

[@EtchedwithVinyl]

No problem!

[@jenniferbernal5360]

Hello, I get a bit lost when you compound both the eye and the ear piece together. I compound them together but it won't turn black it still keeps the same color of his face. Please help

[@Krissymay84]

How did you do the black background for the words for the clubhouse? Did you just offset?

[@EtchedwithVinyl]

+Krissy McDonald "offset" :)

[@BloodSweatnBass]

It would help me a great deal if you could tell me how I can cut any kind of card stock with out it curling up, ripping, I can't pull anything off of the mat without destroying it. And see that your doing it with ease. So I use the back of the mat and tape everything down. Which limits the things I can do. Please HELP! Is there a way I can make my mat less sticky. I've tried everything even used baby power on the mat which worked a little to well but made a mess.

[@EtchedwithVinyl]

BloodSweatnBassOutside It's because the mat is too sticky. Do you have vinyl? You could stick vinyl to it. Take it off, put it on. Repeat till it's less sticky.

[@dixieannbrereton6660]

How did you cut the Mickey out so big. The one you are using for the game

[@EtchedwithVinyl]

+dixie ann brereton I cut it in multiple pieces :) I made a tutorial about that here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/eGPNhoqghL5_rac

[@mariacrowder5594]

what kind of glue did you use

[@EtchedwithVinyl]

Maria Crowder - I like to use double sided tape ☺️

[@flashflash1020]

u r owesome 😍

[@iwicbe1643]

Cool. Compound Path. Cool technique. I love making crafts. I wish I were able to make stuffs like you can. Seriously, I am not good at machines. I bought Cameo but the first try, I ruined the mat. So I have not been able to use it yet. How come the paper does not stick to your mat?? I mean I am pretty sure it does stick but you were able to peel them out. When I placed my paper on the mat it stuck and I was not able to peel my paper from the mat. So it ruined and had to throw it away...

[@EtchedwithVinyl]

IWICBE - Just commented back to the other one :) I saw the notification about Japan. We moved back in 2016. We currently live in Wyoming (USA) and will be moving again somewhere around 2021- 2022 :)

[@iwicbe1643]

Oh, cool. Cuz I live in japan.

[@EtchedwithVinyl]

IWICBE - Oh where in Japan? I was in Misawa

[@iwicbe1643]

South part of Japan - Kumamoto

[@sedirasanders4853]

I had the same trouble with construction paper. The cardstock is a different grade of paper and works better. To use construction paper with my Silhouette I order Cricut mats.

[@heartgirl1980]

do you have to color in the image? i usually just cut vinyl but im wanting to do some cuts with card stock and have no idea where to begin when it comes to images with multi layers

[@EtchedwithVinyl]

+Kim Brown I color them in just to get an idea on what the final item will look like and to also make sure I can the right pieces in the right colors

[@T0iNFiNiTYBEY0ND]

For the wording (black) did you size it to be bigger so the red words fit inside and showed the outlining of black or does size not matter?

[@EtchedwithVinyl]

Yeah, I did it that way on purpose :)

[@Wedow12]

LOVE this video-never worked with cardstock. What glue do you use, that it doesn't show through?

[@EtchedwithVinyl]

Double sided tape is the best!

[@patwoodson7159]

[@puppylove3800]

i have a question,I'm a new user and trying to figure out if the Cameo is useful. like for example, why wouldn't you just print this out on a regular printer as opposed to piecing it all together. sorry if this is a stupid question

[@applesaurus5041]

Well printing it out on paper distorts the color, and it's very flat. When you cut them out individually it adds thickness and depth to a scrapbook page. Now if you're using them for decorations, doing his also makes it more sturdy.

[@bklyngirlnb8679]

Great tutorial I did get lost a little. Silly ? Did you put your own color cardstock in the machine for all the different parts thx :)

[@EtchedwithVinyl]

+BklynGirlNB Yup! I have a whole bunch of colored cardstock that I bought from Michaels craft store that I used to make this one. Just went one by one and cut the different shapes out of each color and then pieced them all together.

[@jesusvargas841]

Can you also do this with the circuit explorer??

[@EtchedwithVinyl]

Jesus Vargas I believe so. I'm not familiar with the Cricut machine and software.

[@YanselsPartyCrafts]

Hi there, with the Cricut explorer 96% of images are layered. You would have to purchase the cartridges

[@colorlovessparkle]

can you give me a step by step instructions on how you made the layers and separate them

[@EtchedwithVinyl]

+colorsparklesglitter If you start at the 1:05 point in the video, I go step by step on how to layer and everything :)

[@keyarabrown7565]

were you in Misawa?! noticed you had the kanji for misawa saved in your folder I'm here now

[@EtchedwithVinyl]

Keyara Brown I was :)

[@rowenadiamond]

Can you do a video in how to put it all together ???

[@EtchedwithVinyl]

Rowena Viloria It's really simple! Just use double sided tape and piece all the colored parts on top of the black part :)

[@colorlovessparkle]

what kind of card stock do you you use for your sillhoutte

[@EtchedwithVinyl]

+colorsparklesglitter I just used cardstock that I bought a long time ago from Michaels

[@tawannadaniels4184]

what im confused about is making the separate colors. I guess you call it an SVG file? how did you do that. Can you show this in a new video please

[@merlynnw]

Great job! Loved the video, I'll probably have to watch it a couple of times to get it right. I have a question. Why did you not just erase the small text on your design, instead of using the compound path? Also Do you work with vinyl or HTV vinyl? My teenagers are into tshirts with designs on it. Can't wait for your next video.

[@EtchedwithVinyl]

+Merlynn Wierzbicki You could the eraser if you would like. But the design needed the compound path to be released anyways in order to color all the parts in and separate them for cutting, so I just deleted those tiny pieces at the bottom that way. And I think it's easier sometimes, then you can just select the pieces all at once and click delete :) I've worked with HTV a little bit.. But not a whole lot. I am going to make a basic how to video of it though. Thanks for watching!

[@rowenadiamond]

What kind of card stick can you use

[@EtchedwithVinyl]

Rowena Viloria All kinds. I usually buy from places like Michael's.

[@glendan6436]

Was this print and cut? Or do you just cut colored cardstock?

[@EtchedwithVinyl]

+Glenda N This was just cutting colored cardstock :) I did a print and cut tutorial also.. You can see the video here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/kH-6gaSchrqGgcU

[@littledado1]

what kind of cardstock do you use???

[@EtchedwithVinyl]

claudia deriu just regular card stock you buy at the craft store

[@taniapacheco4790]

do you print it on regular paper or color paper?

[@EtchedwithVinyl]

Tania Pacheco I didn't print. I cut colored paper.

[@taniapacheco4790]

Etched with Vinyl this is a great video no doubt and thanks for sharing. but for people that not know how to use this machine and tryig to learn i find it very confusing.

[@hevenly11]

where do you get your cardstock?

[@EtchedwithVinyl]

Tina Sarmiento Any craft store :)
