How to make Vellum placecards with your cutting machine

Making vellum place cards with the Silhouette Cameo print and cut feature is a great way to add a touch of elegance to your event. Here's a step-by-step guide on how to create vellum place cards with Silhouette Cameo print and cut:

Step 1: Set up Your Design

The first step is to set up your design in Silhouette Studio software. Create a new document and select the size of your vellum paper. Use registration marks, then, design your place cards using the text tool or by importing your own design. Remember to leave a small border around your design to ensure that it cuts correctly.

Step 2: Print Your Design

Once your design is ready, it's time to print it on your vellum paper. Load the vellum paper into your printer, making sure to adjust the paper settings to vellum or a similar thin paper type. Then, send your design to the printer and let it print.

Step 3: Cut Your Design

Once your design is printed on the vellum paper, it's time to cut it using the Silhouette Cameo print and cut feature. Open the Cut Settings window in Silhouette Studio and adjust the cut settings according to the type of vellum paper you're using. Then, stick the printed vellum paper onto the cutting mat and load the mat into the Silhouette Cameo. Tip: I recommend using light or standard grip cutting mat for vellum.
