Silhouette Tutorial: Organizing Your Shapes by Mendi

Are you finding yourself with a growing collection of SVG files which you’ve acquired from outside the Silhouette store?  While it is fairly easy to import them into your Silhouette library, I’ve found myself really missing the color thumbnails that come with the shapes purchased directly from the Silhouette store.

I’m happy to say that with a little creativity I was able to find a couple different ways around this which have solved this problem and made a huge difference for me when I’m searching for the perfect shape from within my personal library!  Today I thought I would share my little tricks with you… (On a side note, make sure to click on the gear in the bottom right-hand corner and select 1080p to view the video at the highest resolution).



Of course no blog post seems complete without a project to share so I decided to create a card with the cutting files used in today’s video.


This card was made with the beautiful Reflections: Fall collection which Lori designed for Echo Park.  For my pocket, I used Lori’s folder cutting file by stitching down the sides and inserting a journaling card from the collection for a fun interactive element.


I hope you’ve found the tutorial helpful.  😉
