Silhouette iridescent sticker sheets are a great way to add a special sparkle and shine to any project. Whether you’re making cards, scrapbooking, or creating crafts, these kinds of sticker sheets can really take your projects to the next level. But can you use them with Cricut?
The short answer is yes – you can definitely use Silhouette iridescent sticker sheets with your Cricut machine. All you need is the right settings in Design Space and you’ll be able to cut out intricate designs and shapes from these sticker sheets.
Design Space Settings
To use any kind of sticker sheet with your Cricut machine, you’ll need to adjust the settings in Design Space. The most important setting when using Silhouette iridescent sticker sheets is the “Blade Type” option, which should be set to “Cutting Blade.” This will ensure that your cuts are precise and clean each time. Additionally, it’s a good idea to set the “Material Type” option to “Sticker Sheet.” This will help ensure that your cuts are more accurate and will also reduce wear on your blade over time.
Cleaning Up Your Cuts
When cutting out stickers from Silhouette iridescent sticker sheets, it’s important to be gentle when removing them from the mat. These types of materials can be quite delicate and prone to tearing if not handled properly.
Gently peel away each cutout one by one and avoid pulling too hard on them as they may tear or rip easily. If possible, use tweezers or a pair of fine-tipped scissors to help remove any small pieces that may have been left behind on the mat after cutting.
Adhesive Sheets
Once you have all of your stickers cut out, it’s time to apply them to whatever project you have in mind! For best results, it’s recommended that you use an adhesive sheet for this step – this will help make sure that all of your stickers stay firmly in place for a long time without peeling up or coming loose over time. Silhouette sell their own adhesive sheets specifically designed for their iridescent sticker sheets but if these are unavailable then any other kind of adhesive sheet should work just fine too!
In conclusion, yes – you can use Silhouette iridescent sticker sheets with your Cricut machine! All it takes is some careful setting adjustments in Design Space before cutting out intricate designs and shapes from these beautiful materials – perfect for adding an extra sparkle and shine to any project!
