I learned how to make seamless backgrounds on another program. Not easy. Who knew I had the ability all the time. Thanks for the excellent tutorial. 👍🏼👍🏼

[@silhouettesuccess]

Which program? I'm nosey. LOL

[@meluv2cut]

Procreate. Very tedious. I drew lemons n leaves. I could have just pasted one resized and rotated multiples. Doh!

??? Why save as a jpg? Just curious. PS Happy 4th and thanks for doing these

[@silhouettesuccess]

It flattens the image into one layer, and that's what all of the other patterns were saved as in my library. Lol. PNG might work as well, but I'm not sure.

[@silhouettesuccess]

And Happy 4th!! 😊

[@lisaanderson1788]

Glad you asked this one i was thinking the same 😊

[@grisselle1972]

Omg I was frustrated with the freezing of the transfered images and you showed how to fix it. Thank you so much

[@kathleenfraser345]

Hi Brenda, I think all your videos are great. I have a huge concern about the Curio 2 and I have one coming tomorrow. I have not seen anywhere that I need a grid mat for the Curio. I don't see that one comes with the Curio. My big question is do I need this mat and if so what is the name of it and where can I get one. Is it the same matas the one die the cameo 5. I know it is early and I want to know so I I can order one and get it soon. Thanks so much for all your great videos and all your help. Kathy

[@silhouettesuccess]

Hi Kathleen! You can use a mat with the Curio for materials that won't stick well to the ES mat. It's the same as the 12x12 mat for the cameo. Most local craft stores will carry them, or you can find them on Swing Design, or Amazon. It is Amazon Prime Day, but I haven't seen them go on sale yet there.

I have the business edition, but I am unable to merge the checkerboard pattern. Do you have any tips?

[@silhouettesuccess]

What type of file are you trying to merge?

[@maryannhall3712]

I tried it a second time and it worked. Thanks for responding..

[@juliarea6416]

What vinyl or sticker was use to print on

[@silhouettesuccess]

amzn.to/3LboZxl It's J and J Packaging brand.

[@VincentAiello]

Brenda tried saving my design as a jpeg but its not listed in the save as type menu. is there a way to add jpeg and any others

[@silhouettesuccess]

You'll need the Business Edition to save as anything other than a Silhouette file.

[@VincentAiello]

Brenda when I use drop and drag I get an error message

[@VincentAiello]

Brenda you were right my business edition wasn't checked off. I love the work that you do and I appreciate your help. Thanks

[@silhouettesuccess]

I'm glad that worked! I'm not sure why that happens sometimes, but it took me forever to figure it out when mine went back to Basic. Makes you want to throw the whole thing out the window! 😂

[@VincentAiello]

Brenda I have the business edition

[@silhouettesuccess]

Go to the top of your screen. Under the help tab, click on View in and make sure Business Edition is checked.
