Gathering the Materials

Before you can start making cookie stencils with the Cameo, you will need to gather all of the necessary materials. You will need your Cameo cutting machine, adhesive vinyl or contact paper, transfer paper, an X-acto knife or scissors, and cardstock. Once you have all of these items, you are ready to begin.

Creating a Design

The next step is to create your design. You can use any design software that is compatible with the Silhouette Cameo to create your stencil design. Once your design is complete, use the Silhouette software to send it to the cutting machine.

Cutting Out the Stencil

Once your design has been sent to the cutting machine, it’s time to cut out your cookie stencil. Place either adhesive vinyl or contact paper on top of cardstock and load it into the cutting machine. Make sure that you have selected “stencil” as your material type in the software before sending it for cutting.

Transferring Your Design

Once your stencil has been cut out, use transfer paper to transfer it onto cardstock or parchment paper. This will ensure that your stencil stays in one place while you’re using it on cookies. Use an X-acto knife or scissors to trim away any excess vinyl or contact paper from around the edges of your stencil.
