Sugar Bean Bear and Wolf

Hello all! The other week I updated the cover on my Silhouette Cameo 3 with this bear image. I combined four files from the Silhouette store to make this.

I received such an overwhelming request (highest of compliments to those asking) for this file. HOWEVER, I do not file share files I purchase. So I made my own to share with anyone who wants it!

Scroll down to see how I used them. 

Since I designed this in Silhouette Studios, it should open in Silhouette Studios. A friend of mine did me a favor and converted the files into a *.svg format. If it works for you in any other program than Studios, great. If not, I'm sorry but my hands are tied. This was designed to work with Studios.

I have a seperate blade for vinyl work. My machine was set on the matte vinyl setting and blade at a 2. I also chose to cut using a mat, but working with the Silhouette machines and vinyl, you do not need to use the mat. I just like the stability for the smaller projects. 

I weeded the larger areas first

Then added my contact paper onto my image

Secure the contact paper onto the bear

Then I flipped the image, WITH the vinyl backing still on, onto a sticky mat. Then I rubbed it down real good with my white Silhouette scraper tool. Remove the vinyl backing and got to reverse weeding the lower portion of the bear. 

 Note, you can see the contact paper still on my mat with the image reversed for easier weeding of the lower half.

 Next I took the contact paper off the mat and applied it to the area surface.

Before removing the contact paper, flatten over the surface with the Silhouette scraper tool.

 Remember, remove that contact paper!!!

 Final Bear Results:

 For the wolf image, I did it in the teal color to match my original bear.

 I didn't need to reverse weed this image. It was fairly easy to weed.

 Again, press really flat and firm on the contact paper

 and remove that contact paper!
