Cricut doesn't have trace specifically, but they do have an upload option where you can turn images into cut files. It, like everything else, is a bit more simplifed, but it still works and a majority of the images I use I get right off Google.
I'm a newbie to this and had been struggling for a few days with definition of my traced objects. It just wasn't working for me, but your simple tips really helped a great deal. Thank you
Could you do a silhouette out of the box video. I’m hoping to get one for Christmas and need the very basics to start out. Which Silhouette do you own? Thank you so much.
Hello. Good ‘quick’ look at how to trace. I am looking to take this further…to see the ‘send’ result. My logo is giving me grief, and I just can’t seem to get the outline and the writing to cut as one entity. It is consistently putting cut lines around the border, and then the writing. It is an image that I created, and imported to Design Studio as a jpeg. Help appreciated, if you can find the time. Merci.
Super helpful in the past. I dont know why, but when I follow all these steps, my image doesn't turn yellow for me. I did it before no problem but now it doesn't trace at all. Could I have turned something off?
Cricut Design Space has this but it’s not called Trace. You go to upload and you can upload any image, and clean it up, and it if has multiple layers you can upload those too. And smooth out any edges and erase as you clean up the images. I love it.
Also I love that I can screen shot any image on my phone and upload it to cricut design app and clean up images on the go instead of on the desktop: 👍🏼
I love your content & you have helped me SOOOO much but I am officially STUCK! I'm having trouble with my design glitching OUTSIDE my design space & every time I move my cursor around the accordion effect glitching jumps around and moves around like crazy in the background. Do you know how I can fix this possibly?! I'm sure any of you're time would be tremendously helpful to me!
I am BRAND SPANKING NEW and I know you did this last year but...... How do you know if something will come out “clean”? What will it look like if you did not clean it up?
Judi Leavenworth she said she hasn’t owned all of them, also this is a “quick tip Tuesday” she wouldn’t be able to compare 3 machines with all the features in a “quick tip Tuesday video” there are already tons of videos comparing them if you type it in the search bar of RUclips or google there are tons of tutorial in the cameo 3 and the others
There are different versions of the machine (Portrait cuts up to 9" wide and Cameo cuts up to 12" wide). That's about the only difference. The Silhouette Studio program is the same across the board. As long as you learn the program you can use which ever machine (size) works for you. Hope that helps a little! ( I have had both sizes, Cameo 3 now)
Some designs are too detailed to trace. You can go into Photoshop and simplify the designs by deleting things before uploading into SIL studio. Otherwise you would have to do layers, especially if you have different colors, you'll have to extract layers and cut them each one at a time. It's time consuming, but do-able.
Pennie Roehrs you can do it simply by cutting without using your mat, there is a setting in silhouette where you can select “none“ in the mat settings, then move your roller over to the correct width you want, then create your design and just cut the actual vinyl only. That’s the short answer.
Plz don’t stop this series. My 13 yr old daughter is learning along with me.
thank you!!

How do I edit a traced photo? Is that possible with the silhouette portrait?

How do you cut just around the circle of the design you are using in this example? Thanks

New to your channel. Love your quick tip Tuesday. I also visited your etsy shop; do you have the hot cocoa signs available? Thanks.
Can u do this in the basic studio
Hello I’m having an issue with lines showing up through my design after tracing. Have you experienced this? It’s driving me crazy.
Can you do a compare between the different Silhouette models? - I don't have one yet and I'm trying to decide which would be best for me.

What if the logo is more advanced like mine with flowers in the border and shiplap background? How will I get that to show up crisp?

Can you show how to do a project that’s wider than 12”?
