With the Silhouette Cameo 4, you can create intricate stencils in a matter of minutes. Here’s how to make stencils with your Silhouette Cameo 4:
1. Prepare Your Image
The first step is to prep your image in the Silhouette Studio software.
Make sure the image is high quality and that any text or design elements are clear and easy to read. You can also adjust the size of your image in the software if needed.
2. Cut Out Your Stencil
Once you’ve prepped your image, it’s time to cut it out on your Silhouette Cameo 4.
Load the cutting mat into the machine and load up your prepared design file. Select “Stencil” as the material type and adjust any other settings as necessary before starting the cut process. The Cameo will then start cutting out exactly what you need for your stencil.
3. Weed Out Unwanted Pieces
Once the cutting process is finished, remove your stencil from the cutting mat and weed out any unwanted pieces that may be left over from the cut process. Use tweezers or a weeding tool to carefully remove any small pieces from around letters or designs that you don’t want in your final product.
4. Transfer To Your Project
Now that all of the pieces have been removed, it’s time to apply your stencil onto whatever project you’re working on.
You can use a transfer tape or contact paper to transfer it onto wood, walls, fabric, or whatever else you need it for.
