silhouette portrait 3 sticker tutorial and review 2023 ✿ how I make stickers from home part 2

Hey guys! I am back with an updated Sticker Making Tutorial with my new Silhouette Portrait 3 to speed up production and save me time and hand cramps. I go over how to set up a sticker sheet to print and cut in the Silhouette Design Software and share my thoughts and plans moving forward with my own sticker shop for the rest of the year and 2024. I hope you all find this helpful in your own shop journey or insightful in what investments you should make.

As someone with autism who can sometimes be started or easily distracted by loud unpleasant noises thank you for the warning of the machine being loud

Got my first order while watching this video!!! ❤ So excited to start my journey. Thanks for all the great info Shay!

[artbylain]

Dude, she gained 2.8k followers in less than a day. Wonder when she’ll hit 50k. Keep making videos Shay you rock!

[MonTricotEtMoi]

I have been wanting to start a small home based business for a few years now, and since I was an avid scrapbooker, I already have the machine, this is perfect! Thanks so much for sharing your experiences, not every seller would do so.... again, much appreciated!

[pestermint]

I've always wanted to make stickers, and I've watched so many videos on it, but I enjoyed yours the most :) It's very informative and calming--it makes me want to make stickers! Thank you so much!

[Nanjoe]

So excited to watch this! I love your sticker designs, which inspired me to create my own! Thank you so much Shay!! <3

[realgreekcicada]

Such great timing! Thank you Shay, I'll probably draw along while this video is playing, take care :D
Also, as always, your stickers look awesome! Making stickers seems really fun :))

[AnotherBrainArt]

I found your tutorial easier for me to follow than most. I would rewind a few times in faster spots, but I think going forward this will be easy. Next will be sticker sheets!

[Issame_sasha_hello]

I beyond love your perspective and advice for creating products!! It can be so confusing go about the process with no experience! Your stickers are so cute!! I love the laminations 😍💓💓

[dianeauriemma]

I love my portrait 3 for making stickers and also anything that is paper. ie crds etc. your directions are very clear, the only thing i do different is that i fold the mat over a little and items come off a little easier. keep up the good work and thanks

[starriemaus]

You just singlehandedly fixed the only problem I have with my machine😭 Everywhere I looked people said to line it up against the notch, not on top...I will definitely try that! Your stickers are extremely adorable💕

[ufoesferico]

I’m watching this before class! Im learning so much from you, hope one day I make a sticker shop like yours.
Edit: Totally in love with those Audrey stickers 🪴❤

[devnull]

Single most useful tutorial I've ever seen on the Portrait...thank you so much!

[wrihtuc]

Thank you so much for this video! I recently bought this sillouette after a long fight with my old cricut (for anyone reading this, get a sillouette for stickers, cricuts dont have great accuracy), and the software looked a bit scary. You walked through the steps in a super easy to understand way, thank you :-) your stickers are beautiful, btw

ps Export the image in jpg format, the resolution of more than 300 is best. Then the print will be very clear, there will be no yellow exclamation mark, but you need to set the tangent line in the software.

[Cosmignon]

I'm thinking about saving for the supplies to print stickers on my own next year and this channel has been very helpful ^_^ also your designs are gorgeous! next time I have the money I need to catch one of your sticker drops !!

[barbaraevers]

You can make the registration marks smaller in the software so you can print more stickers to a page. Also if you make the outside cutline another color than red you can just select that color to cut and you don’t have to go through all your stickers to unclick the cut line. Saves some more time and paper!

[amandaray_art]

Thank you for going through the process! This is super informative!

[mokilatte]

I haven’t been able to watch much yt lately cause uni is destroying me but whenever I have some time your videos are so comforting and wholesome to watch, I love seeing you grow and I’m so glad you’re getting more sponsor opportunities, the stickers turned out awesome ˙ᵕ˙

[maddiewolff]

Love your advice! Love your art! So excited to see you grow 🫶🏼
