Mother’s Day is on May 8, and we’re getting ready to celebrate with our online classes! This April, join us for two online workshops where we’ll learn to create two different, creative, and intricate cards. We love using our Silhouette machines for cardmaking, so learn some new skills and make some beautiful projects along the way! And as always, we’re also offering our Intro to Silhouette class for beginners and users looking to brush up on their skills. Check out all of the classes we’re offering this month!
All Classes

April 6: Why Silhouette?
There’s always one question we get from makers new to our machines: why Silhouette? This class will teach you the Silhouette basics, from choosing your first machine to navigating Silhouette Studio® and creating your first project. This is a monthly class, so don’t worry if you miss April’s session—we’ll leave the video recording here, and we’ll be teaching this course again in May!

You can use it with vinyl as long as it is smooth and flat to allow the static charge to hold on to it. Rolled vinyl that wants to go back to its rolled shape will not necessarily work well, and it would need to be trimmed to fit the ES mat cutting area.

Yes, you can use the heat pen while using the ES mat. 🙂

Once you’ve pushed the mat up against the rollers, just press the “Load” arrow button (bottom right on the display). Does a regular sticky mat load into the machine for you?
