With Silhouette Cameo, tracing light colors is incredibly easy and can add dimension and texture to a variety of projects. Whether you are looking to create an intricate cutting pattern or simply spruce up a craft project with some color, tracing light colors with Silhouette Cameo is a great way to go.

Tracing light colors in Silhouette Cameo is as simple as implementing two basic tools: the trace function and the color selection. In order to trace light colors, you will first need to open your design in the Silhouette Studio software.

Once this is done, select the trace function found in the upper right-hand corner of the software. This will bring up a window that will allow you to customize your trace settings; make sure that both the “High Pass Filter” and “Noise Reduction” boxes are checked. After this is completed, click on “Select Trace Area” and select the area of your design that you would like to trace.

The next step is selecting your desired color for tracing; make sure that this color has been selected from within the “Color Selection” window at the top left-hand side of the software. Once this has been done, click on “Trace Outer Edge” or “Trace All” depending on your desired tracing results. At this point, you can adjust any other tracing settings such as threshold and minimum area before clicking “Trace Now” at which point all of your traced vectors should appear as dashed lines on top of your design.

Now that all of these steps have been completed, you can easily fill in all of these newly created vectors with whatever color was selected from within the Color Selection window at the beginning of this process. This process can be repeated multiple times with different colors if desired; however, it should be noted that it may be necessary to adjust certain settings depending on how intricate or detailed a particular vector needs to be.

Conclusion

Tracing light colors in Silhouette Cameo is an easy way to add flavor and dimension to any craft project.
