ReplyDeleteThank you!

ReplyDeleteLove the tutorials-Have passed your sight along to others who are new to Silhouette
ReplyDeleteThese are the best tutorials ever. I am learning so much from them.
ReplyDeleteI've learned more from these than any other resource, love the step by step instructions and illustrations provided.
ReplyDeleteCan't wait
ReplyDeleteI bought your E-Book. Can't wait to get started reading and learning. Thanks so much for the education.

ReplyDeleteI have had my Silhouette Cameo for 3 years. It sat in the box for 2 yrs because there were no instruction book! A friend finally showed me how to do a basic cut, but that was all she was able to show me. I purchased the Silhouette in order to cut material for applique's for embroidery. I have Rheumatoid Arthritis and there are days using scissors just won't happen, but I enjoy my computerized embroidery machine. I can be creative without having to really manipulate my hands that much! So basically, the Silhouette has been just sitting there collecting dust until I found your great website school! I love you ebook and your school! Like everyone else I am finally able to have fun with my Silhouette machine, thanks to you and your great basic instructions! I give everyone I know your website. Your my hero and this has allowed me to be even more creative with a new grandchild. Thank you so much. Keep up the great work and know that your greatly appreciated.

Aww you're sweet, thanks Susan!
Deletefinally ordering your ebook tonight - time for some treat yourself. Like many, I'm a visual learner and I'm looking forward to learning more with your book at my side.
ReplyDeleteHi Melissa, I was wondering if you aren't sending blogs via e-mail daily as you did in the past? I see your posts on Facebook, but not receiving them daily. Has that changed and I overlooked that? LOVE your blog and save all of them. I also love your e-book! Thank you for all that you do!
ReplyDeleteHi there! If you subscribe above to daily emails you should be getting them in your email inbox. They go out daily! You can also check the blog daily for the new tutorials as well.
DeleteI really enjoy my Silhouette and I purchased your ebook when you first published it. I have found your ebook to be very informative and helpful in using my Silhouette. Thank you for all your hard work!
ReplyDeleteI am trying to subscribe to the lessons but am unable to.

It won't let me subscribe either. sigh
ReplyDeleteUpdate - to all my crafty friends! I wouldn't get the Silhouette Curio right now. My husband bought me one for my Birthday and I was super excited! But, After trying and trying to get Customer Service to help me get it to work..I then had to ask for a supervisor, when I spoke to a supervisor he assured me he would converse with me himself to help me solve the problems. I sent him an email 5 days ago and still haven't gotten a reply. My 240.00 Birthday present has been sitting in the corner of my craft room unused for 10 days!!!! . So very dissapointed! :o( #silhouetteamerica
ReplyDeleteDid you ever get your problem resolved
Deletesubscribe not working.
ReplyDeleteThere are so many! I love the layering vinyl tips!
ReplyDeleteThank you for the great tips!
ReplyDeleteLearning so much here i would be in a big mess with my cameo if it was not for your blog
ReplyDeleteOve this sight, so informative!
ReplyDeleteLove all your great tutorials and information, you take the scariness out of using my machine.
ReplyDeleteSomeone has to do something about the ease (or UNease) at being able to move the rollers. There is just NO space for your fingers to hold the bar AND grip the wheel to turn. More so when you have aching joints! I've tried now for 30 minutes with no luck
ReplyDeleteMy red cutting lines are jagged. Please help. It's on everything I try.
ReplyDeleteHi Melissa...Thank you so much for all the lessons. I am new to all of this. I have purchased your EBook and love it...but was wondering how I could get your daily/weekly lessons in a form I could download? don't know if that is possible. But unless they are on paper, I won't remember them. thank you so much for all you do! I have learned so much from your blogs
ReplyDeleteI was given my silhouette cameo Nov 2012. I have now just gotten to becoming "involved," and it's Dec. 2015. Thanks to my discovery of your tutorials and "plain-speaking," I feel I can now tackle it. I'm actually pretty excited about it. Please keep up the good work. I, for one, truly appreciate it and believe you should get a HUGE commission from Silhouette. Thank you again.
ReplyDeleteCan you resize an image in pixscan
ReplyDeleteIs this subscription free?
ReplyDeleteI cut a lot of fabric with my silhouette, would you recommend this blade for that? I go through blades like crazy!
ReplyDeleteHey, Melissa!I've tried to subscribe for a couple of days and have had no response. I was also interested in buying the Ultimate Silhouette Guide, but the lack of response makes me a little wary about sending money to a site which doesn't seem to be interested in subscribers. I hope this is just a temporary issue as it looks like there is a lot of information in the book and on this site.
ReplyDeleteHi Melissa I bought your book five beginner silhouette tutorials and I can't find the file cut for the projects the link I have (http://bit.do/SilhouetteNewbies ) is there another link to use because that one is not working. thank you very much.
ReplyDeletei hope i can learn much things about silhouette
ReplyDeleteMy Silhouette Cameo is still waiting for me to plug in and start up AFTER more than a YEAR. Partly because the loss of 2 family members, but also because I've just been too wimpy, lol...and intimidated by the software alone! But, alas, I've discovered this school and blog and I'm about ready to begin. Fortunately, my ex is a "sign guy" who makes vinyl signs and I had the opportunity to peel and weed the vinyl for him, and watch him apply his signs many, many times so, I bring some rudimentary knowledge and experience with me. Also, (lucky for me), I've got drawers throughout my house with vinyl squeegees and may even have an old roll of vinyl to practice with! Nonetheless, had I not stumbled upon this source, my SilCam may have sat gathering dust for yet another year. I also purchased the book written specifically for the Cameo and beginners and I think it's a fantastic book. Worth every penny! I really look forward to using this site frequently and as much as possible since I've yet to find another that even comes close to all that's offered from Silhouette School Blog! Thanks for mountain of help and for creating such a comprehensive and dynamic place to go for us beginners!

ReplyDeleteThis blog is so helpful!! I send all my Sil friends to this page :)
ReplyDeleteJust got my cameo within the last year, It has been A life saver I use it to make stencils, stickers cards and cut outs!
ReplyDeleteProbably wouldn't know half this stuff without silhouette school
I actually use mine as a hobby to relax from my jewelry design business. I also like to make items for non- profit causes. My next project is for the IWK (children's hospital in Nova Svotia Canada) Make a Wish annual telethon. My childhood best friend has a son that just beat leukemia and were able to visit Paris with the foundations help.
ReplyDeletei love the blog and own a couple of the books n love them thank you
ReplyDeleteI have had my cameo for three years and love it. I use it for cards, Scrapbooking and mini albums. Thanks for the opportunity to win a fabulous prize.
ReplyDeleteLove this site.
ReplyDeleteWhat's your favorite way to use your Silhouette machine? My favorite way to use my Silhouette machine is to create anything and everything and sell it. Make it make money for me so I can "retire"(that means stay home and create even more).
ReplyDeleteThis is a difficult thing to answer. I use my Silhouette primarily for scrapbooking my family memories. However, recently, I've been using it to decorate my house (vinyl), gives and more! I LOVE my silhouette and can't wait to see what other uses will come.
ReplyDeleteI bought my silhouette to cut fabric but I use it to make bulletin boards at work, stencils, labels, photo frames, gift cards, coffee mugs, you name it!
ReplyDeleteI love your blog! It's the first place I go when I have a question regarding my silhouette cameo!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite thing is making shirts using HTV
ReplyDeleteLove love love your website!!! You've helped me out so much and so quickly! This is your true calling :) My favorite way to use it is with all the vinyl. I can be so creative and it always turns out so cute!
ReplyDeleteI haven't received your emails for a couple of weeks now. I tried signing up again last week but they still aren't coming. Going to try to sign up again today. Thought you'd like to know that there might be a problem with your email system.
ReplyDeleteSilhouette School is the best teaching blog I've ever come across, hands down! I love and appreciate all the effort you put into your blog! Thank you!

ReplyDeleteHi I was wondering if anyone can help me, I am having difficulty removing my paper from the cutting board, it keeps sticking too much and then ripping!!! What am i doing wrong????
ReplyDeleteI love all the things you teach us. I like to win because I have my birthday to and become 60 years.
ReplyDeleteI've been using my Cameo for years, yet I always learn something new from Silhouette School! The tutorials are great - helped me get started with my Curio. I always find an answer and if I have a question, I email and get a quick response!
ReplyDeleteMelissa is a wonderful instructor and is a Silhouette genius. I'm happy. :-)
Thank you. I know by following your tutorials I am going to learn so much about my Cameo 3 and how to use it!
