How Do You Cut More Than One Color in Silhouette?

Cutting More Than One Color in Silhouette: The Silhouette machine is one of the most versatile machines for cutting paper and vinyl. It can be quite a challenge to figure out how to cut multiple colors, but with a few simple steps, you can have your project completed quickly and easily.

The first step is to select the design you would like to cut. Once you have chosen your design, open the Silhouette software on your computer and select “Open Design” from the File menu.

You will then need to select the “Material” tab at the top of the window and choose “Multiple Colors” from the drop-down menu.

Next, you will need to select each color of material you would like to cut. This can be done by clicking on the “Add Color” button at the bottom of the window and then selecting each color from the palette.

Once all your desired colors are added, you can click “Done”.

The next step is to create a separate layer for each color in your design by clicking on “Create Layer” at the top of the window and selecting “New Layer” from the drop-down menu. You will then need to drag each color into its own layer so that they are all separated.

Once all your layers are created, it is time to set up your cutting mat by selecting which material you would like to use for each layer of your design. You can do this by clicking on “Change Material Type” in the Materials tab at the top of the window, and then selecting which material type you would like to use for each layer.

Finally, after all your layers are set up, it is time to send them through your Silhouette machine for cutting! You can do this by clicking on “Send To Silhouette” in the File menu at the top of your screen. Make sure that all layers are selected before sending them through so that they will all be cut at once!

Cutting multiple colors with a Silhouette machine isn’t as intimidating as it might seem! With just a few simple steps, anyone can have their project completed quickly and easily! All it takes is selecting a design, setting up layers with different materials types, and sending them through for cutting – and then you’re done!
