  • Design Tutorial: Carved Initials Tree Trunk in Silhouette Studio

    Ahhh, goodbye Christmas and New Year! Silhouette and Cricut small business owners, it’s time to start thinking to Valentine’s Day. Today, I’m showing you how to create a carved initial tree trunk design with personalized initials. I think the design style is perfect for a ceramic tile, wood sign, or a card.

    Design Tutorial: Tree Trunk with Personalized Initials in Silhouette Studio

    You’ll need these three fonts (or similar ones) to complete this tutorial:

    • Peoni Patterns – 100% free for personal and commercial use at this link.
    • Brankovic – 100% free for personal and commercial use at this link.
    • MTF Heart Doodle – Free for personal use, $5 donation for commercial use at this link.
    1. In Silhouette Studio, type the letter ‘e’ using the Peoni Patterns font. (Note: You can also use the ‘d’. It’s a slightly different tree pattern.) Design Tutorial: Carved Initials Tree Trunk in Silhouette Studio - Portrait, Cameo, Curio, Mint - by cuttingforbusiness.com
    2. Resize your trees as needed. Design Tutorial: Carved Initials Tree Trunk in Silhouette Studio - Portrait, Cameo, Curio, Mint - by cuttingforbusiness.com
    3. Type a ‘c’ in the MTF Heart Doodle font and size it to fit the middle tree. Rotate it as desired. Design Tutorial: Carved Initials Tree Trunk in Silhouette Studio - Portrait, Cameo, Curio, Mint - by cuttingforbusiness.com
    4. Use the eraser tool to erase any tree detail from underneath your heart. (Be sure that the eraser is set to ‘Outline’ and not ‘Solid’.)Design Tutorial: Carved Initials Tree Trunk in Silhouette Studio - Portrait, Cameo, Curio, Mint - by cuttingforbusiness.com
    5. Add the initials and a + sign inside the heart using the Brankovic font. Design Tutorial: Carved Initials Tree Trunk in Silhouette Studio - Portrait, Cameo, Curio, Mint - by cuttingforbusiness.com
    6. Fill the design with any color and change the line color to the same color as the fill. (Tip: If your design won’t fill with color, double click the line of the design and single click on any red circles to close the path. For the middle tree, I had to first right click on it and ‘Make Compound Path’, then single click the red circles to close the path.) Design Tutorial: Carved Initials Tree Trunk in Silhouette Studio - Portrait, Cameo, Curio, Mint - by cuttingforbusiness.com
      Design Tutorial: Carved Initials Tree Trunk in Silhouette Studio - Portrait, Cameo, Curio, Mint - by cuttingforbusiness.comWhen you are finished with this step, your design should look like this: Design Tutorial: Carved Initials Tree Trunk in Silhouette Studio - Portrait, Cameo, Curio, Mint - by cuttingforbusiness.com
    7. Select the middle tree, then the heart, then the initials. (Tip: Hold down the ‘Shift’ key to select multiple objects at once.) Navigate to ‘Object’, ‘Modify’, ‘Subtract’. Design Tutorial: Carved Initials Tree Trunk in Silhouette Studio - Portrait, Cameo, Curio, Mint - by cuttingforbusiness.com

    That’s it! Your design should now be ready to cut. Design Tutorial: Carved Initials Tree Trunk in Silhouette Studio - Portrait, Cameo, Curio, Mint - by cuttingforbusiness.com

    But what if you want more trees? If you want to make the design a rectangle instead of square, type an ‘e’ in the Peoni Patterns font and resize it to the same size as the first trees. Then, overlap the edges of the trees very slightly. Design Tutorial: Carved Initials Tree Trunk in Silhouette Studio - Portrait, Cameo, Curio, Mint - by cuttingforbusiness.comSelect both objects by holding down the shift button. Then, right click and select ‘Weld’. Design Tutorial: Carved Initials Tree Trunk in Silhouette Studio - Portrait, Cameo, Curio, Mint - by cuttingforbusiness.com Your trees should have filled in with color. Design Tutorial: Carved Initials Tree Trunk in Silhouette Studio - Portrait, Cameo, Curio, Mint - by cuttingforbusiness.comYou can also do this during step 1 if you’d like to have a rectangle design with the carved initial on the biggest tree. If you are cutting a rectangle set of trees, be sure to resize your mat to fit the design.

    I think this design will be great for personalized Valentine’s Day products.

  • The Huge List of Websites to Download Free SVG Cut Files with Commercial Use

    Are you looking for free SVG cut files with commercial use? Good news! I’ve compiled a list for you!

    Commercial Use vs Personal Use Licenses

    Finding free SVG cut files with commercial use is harder than finding free SVG cut files with personal use. Why? I don’t think as many designers offer free commercial use cut files.

    Not sure of the difference between commercial use and personal use? Commercial use licenses allow you to use the SVG on products you sell; while personal use licenses only allow you to use the file on projects you make for your own use.

    Read more about different licenses on designs and fonts.

    Not All Commercial Licenses are Equal

    When you shop for free SVG cut files with commercial use licenses, you need to be sure to read the license for each file and at each site. Unfortunately, the terms from one website to another will vary greatly. Since designers are able to create their own licenses, one designer may say you can only create 10 products using the file – while another may say you can create an unlimited number of products. Still another designer may require a link back to their site, while another doesn’t allow print on demand.

    If you are selling products using a free commercial use SVG cut file, you should keep a record of the license. This is as simple as saving the license included in the zip file to a folder on your computer.

    Free SVG Cut Files on Cutting for Business

    No Obvious Trademark Infringements on this List

    Do you have a favorite site for commercial SVG cut files that isn’t listed below? There are several sites that offer free SVG cut files for commercial use that have obvious trademark infringements. For example, if I come across a site with free commercial use Disney files, or sports teams files – I do not list them below. Unfortunately, these sites do not have your best interest in mind and are likely selling files illegally with the promise of you being able to use them for sale.

  • How to Make Cut Files with Google AutoDraw

    I’ve been watching speculation in the tech world about this tool for months, and am thrilled that Google recently released their AutoDraw experiment. Let me tell you, if you aren’t an artist – this is for you. Google AutoDraw is a machine led tool that recognizes what you are drawing as you draw it and turns your doodle into something – recognizable! It’s free and works on phones, tablets, and computers. Let’s take a look at how to use this up and coming technology to make cut files for Silhouette or Cricut:

    1. Click here to visit AutoDraw. Then, click the “Launch Experiment” button. How to Make Cut Files For Silhouette Cameo or Cricut Explore with Google AutoDraw - by cuttingforbusiness.com

    I can’t wait to see what you create with Google AutoDraw! Before you go, the terms and conditions for the AutoDraw tool are nearly non-existent. It is advertised as “Fast drawing for everyone”. I’m trying to get a solid answer on the commercial use applications – so right now, you may want to stick with personal use. I’ll update this post here if I find out anything else.
