To begin with, you will need to choose the material for your stencil. This can be anything from card stock to vinyl, depending on what look you are going for and how durable the stencil needs to be.

Once you have chosen your material, you need to design your stencil in the Silhouette Studio software. This software is included with the machine and allows you to draw or upload artwork that can be cut out precisely according to your design.

Once you have created your design in the software, it’s time to set up your machine to cut out the stencil. You will need to select “Stencil Material” in the Material Settings menu so that your machine knows how thick the material is and how fast it should cut. You can also adjust other settings such as blade depth, speed and pressure depending on what type of material you are using.

When everything is set up, simply load your material into the machine and press “Send” in Silhouette Studio. The Cameo 3 will then start cutting out your design according to the settings that you chose earlier.

Once it has finished cutting out your design, you can remove it from the mat and peel off any excess material that was not part of your design. Your reusable stencil is now ready for use!
