Cutting vinyl on a Silhouette Cameo is a great way to add creative designs to your projects. Whether it’s for a scrapbook, a shirt, or something else entirely, it’s easy to cut two colors of vinyl with the machine. Here’s how you do it:
Step 1: Gather Your Supplies. You’ll need two different colors of vinyl, an adhesive cutting mat, and your Silhouette Cameo. Make sure your cutting mat is clean and free of any debris that might interfere with the cutting process.
Step 2: Load Your Vinyl. Place one color of vinyl onto the adhesive cutting mat. Make sure the vinyl is firmly adhered to the mat and there are no gaps or bubbles in between.
Then place the second color of vinyl over top of the first color and make sure it is also firmly adhered to the mat.
Step 3: Cut Your Vinyl. Now you can start cutting! Select “Vinyl” from the list of materials in your Silhouette software and adjust your blade settings accordingly. Once you have the settings adjusted, click “Send to Silhouette” and wait for your machine to finish cutting.
Step 4: Peel Away Excess Vinyl. Once your design has been cut, carefully peel away any excess pieces of vinyl. This will leave you with just your design – two colors perfectly cut out!
Conclusion:
Cutting two colors of vinyl on a Silhouette Cameo is easy! With just four simple steps – gathering supplies, loading your vinyl, cutting, and peeling away excess – you can have beautiful designs for whatever project you may have in mind.
