What settings should I use for a silhouette cameo? Thanks!

Use the default settings for Glitter Card Stock Paper...I believe the default blade is set at 10 and double cut.

I have the Silhouette Studio Software on my MacPro with the OS X system and it works very well. I hope that answers your questions

Yes choose dark setting also make sure your drawing is dark the darker the image the more carbon will transfer

My experience: If you hit it with plenty of light the wrinkles won't show. You want a high key, completely white background anyway. So expose high enough or you might have some extra work in Photoshop.

I believe there are a few options for a background that you can use. Just go to the settings and there should be a few choices.

Remember, with stopmotion the shadows have to change with the movement. These might work for that, but you would need a second pair for backfill so there is not a real visible change.

For all answers regarding this software you can go to www.uscutter.com I looked on the package and it didn't say. I found I don't use it since the software that came with my Silhouette does what I need it to do. Wasted my money. May not be the case for you if you have a different cutter.

I would suggest a stronger vinyl. Look at your local print shop. I use 751 c or 651 Oracle . I use my Silhouette vinyl for projects for tiles, that stay in the house. You can also order the Oracle on line.. just type in Oracle vinyl online. Good Luck!!!

You have to use the custom blades made specifically for the machine (the Portrait and Cameo use the same blades).

I use these mats with my Cameo. They are super sticky though so use a towel and remove some of that or it will ruin your first couple of projects.

I think because this leaf pattern is so nice I would want it to stand out. I would apply a plain translucent film. In my opinion too many textures would make the effect too busy.

Some machine embroidery designers are making their designs with some intricate appliques. These would be tedious to cut out in the usual manner, so cutting them out with the Silhouette would be immensely helpful.

Unfortunately, no. That is the only thing that Cricut is lacking. The only images you can use are the ones that are from the cricut cartridges. Granted, there are a lot of images and you can take just a part of that image and use that part. If your looking to use images you already own and cut them, I would then suggest the Cameo by Silhouette. A co-worker of mine has it and uses her own images. I love my Cricut and enjoy it so much!

Yes, the blades can be used on any Silhouette machine, even the older Silhouette SD. I have the Cameo and can't recommend it strongly enough. The full-size 12"x12" cutting area is so handy for so many projects and you can always cut small items, too.

I use with any polish, some are too transparent and don't work good, but usually i use a light collor with a dark for the stamp, or a dark color for a white stamp, it shows up really good

You would either import your drawing from another program or draw it in the cameo software the machine comes with. From there the machine would cut where you tell it to.

You should be able to do that with the Sizzix Eclips plus the additional software you have to buy separately (unless you get a package that comes with it). I would suggest that you look into the Sillhouette Cameo though as I think that machine is geared even more toward what you want--it doesn't have the capabilty to use cartridges like the Eclips does, but it doesn't sound like you would use cartridges anyway--they have commercial artwork on them. It might depend on what file type your artwork is in; you'll want to check with the manufacturer to make sure the machine can do what you want it to do.
