    I use the layering all the time on tumblers, but I’ve never been able to remember how to do make curved text. My mind was blown by how simple your explanation was! I’ve had my Cameo 3 & Cameo 4 for years, but I’ve been too intimidated by the software to actually use them. Your tutorials are a Godsend for me! Thank you. Thank you. THANK YOU!!!❤️❤️❤️

      I agree I've only had my Silhouette Cameo 4 days 😢 and I'm about ready to return it because this is a big learning curve and it's hard to follow. Especially the curving. I cannot get to the EDIT to get the little black round circle to get the font to curve. I got the circle but DOUBLE CLICKING DOES NOT BRING UP THAT LITTLE ROUND BLACK CIRCLE. SO FRUSTRATED with this and other cutting issues and I have the Cameo 4 and it was $367.00 way to much to not be able to get it to work correctly. Thinking of sending it back & getting my money back.

    LOVE your teaching method. I pick up helpful procedures every video. Maybe just a little feedback, slow the mouse down a bit so we can see what you are selecting? I have had to pause and rewind 10 to 12 times on this video alone to see what you actually selected.
    But once I see, I pick up the skill quickly.
    Keep being amazing.

    @cathypowell7852 2 года назад

    Thanks so much. I'm new to Silhouette Studio (I used Make the Cut for years, have been using DS lately but not thrilled with it). I hope I can ask this question so it makes sense. I'm making a cake topper and using her name as the focal point. I also need a solid larger outline of the name to glue the cut name to. I used Donkey Stone font for the letters (they did not touch - I did than on purpose). I used offset but that put the offset around each individual letter. I couldn't figure out how to have a solid offset that would still follow the letter's shape. So I used the offset with the holes from the letters and put circles over the holes and welded them to the offset shape. This worked for I wanted to know if there's a feature I could have used to do this or and easier way, etc. Thanks so much.

    • @DesignBundles
      @DesignBundles  Год назад

      Hi Cathy! You can increase the size of the offset when you click the button there will be a sliding scale which you can increase to have the offset be the entire size of the word! - Dawn 🙂

    Becky, I love your teaching style. I am confused on one point however. When you are doing that outside edge one (green) You click at one point and say "I use a nice green color and take that off" What are you taking off? I have watched repeatedly and that point has me stumped. (brand new to Silhouette, sorry if you need to hold my hand!) I really do appreciate your teaching and your videos. Thank you!

    • @DesignBundles

      Great question and I'm glad you enjoy the videos! I am usually talking about the red line color, for some reason it really bugs me to leave it on and I remove it for the majority of my designs (it's just a visual thing for me). Hope this helps! ---Becky

  • @ddaengashleigh
    @ddaengashleigh 3 года назад +1

    this was so helpful! Do you have any pointers on having the trace line slightly inside of the font to help avoid an white outline? Im having problem with my colorful text having the outline after cutting even though im not offsetting the letters😭😫

    • @DesignBundles
      @DesignBundles  3 года назад +2

      Hey Ashleigh! You can certainly make a small internal offset (look for the Offset Panel and there is one at the top for internal). OR, you can turn on the Print Bleed setting and Silhouette Studio will create a thin border around your text to match the pattern/color and prevent that white line. Hope this helps! ---Becky

Example if you cut layering in white htv and place on black shirt black would show through the letters? New to making t-shirts

    • @DesignBundles
      @DesignBundles  3 года назад

      Hey Cory, it depends to be honest. Sheets are great for storage, they take up much less space and are very affordable. Rolls are great for bulk cutting or longer projects, and ultimately are even cheaper than sheets if you use one color a lot. Hope this helps! ---Becky

    Great tutorial. Thank you.
    By the way, do you know how to upgrade my Silhouette Studio?
    I have the very basic one or because I have a Japanese version, I dont have some of the
    fonts like you do.
    So, what kind of font style should I be searching when I want to cut out letters but I dont want the big "A" or small "a" or "p" middle part to be cut out yet attached?
    (does it make sense?) Thank you.

    • @DesignBundles
      @DesignBundles  2 года назад

      For the fonts you will want to purchase them on a website such as fontbundles.net 😊 The version of your silhouette does not have anything to do with the fonts you have.

  • @donnahendricks3333
    @donnahendricks3333 3 года назад

    Hello Ms Becky. LOVE LOVE LOVE your videos, have learned so much from them! Just one thing tho. I have design edition, paid for and registered, BUT there are several features you mention and are listed on silhouette website as part of my edition to be activated when upgrade and registered. BUT I still can not get the multiple knives, eraser or able to save to sgv??? I have uninstalled and installed several times... and written the company.. but nothing yet. SUGGESTIONS?

    • @DesignBundles
      @DesignBundles  3 года назад

      Hey Donna, I know that saving as an SVG is a Business Edition upgrade, is it possible you have upgraded to Designer Edition first? Also, did you activate your key code through the software again, just in case it removed itself somehow? That has happened to me before, and I simply re-entered my code and it added back all the features. Hope this helps! ---Becky

    I am really enjoying your videos thank you, but I have to ask as I hate using rolls. Where oh where did you get those 12x12 racks that hold all of your sheets?

      Hey Horde! I found those racks on eBay searching for scrapbook paper racks. I'll be honest, the shipping is outrageous because they ship as one piece, and sometimes your vinyl will get caught on the racks in the back. They are pretty for display, but you just have to be careful sliding your vinyl in and out. Hope this helps! ---Becky

    I know I am late to this video. But I just got cameo 4. Some of my text will give me the icon to attach them to a curve but others won't. What am I doing wrong? Love coming to your videos to learn and get better!!

      Thanks so much for your kind words, I'm glad you are enjoying the videos. The only thing I can think of off the top of my head is that you can't curve text after you have welded, ungrouped, etc. It has to still be in the text editing format. Hope this helps! ---Becky

    You explain things very well; however, it's a little too fast for a newbie. Do you have newbie only verions?

    What do you do if you don't get the directional arrow? I don't have that option on my text in the studio program...not sure if I am doing something wrong
