Using the Silhouette Intersect Tool with Kathy

Hi Everyone! It’s Kathy today with a quick tutorial on how to use the Intersect Tool in Silhouette. I actually discovered this tool by accident one day, but it is awesome! I used it to make this tag for my cousin’s wedding shower… she is having a fun and crazy Halloween wedding, so this will be perfect! It helped me create the spider web “lace overlay” on the wedding dress.

Here’s how I did it….

First, I picked the two shapes I wanted to combine, I used the dress from the Pop Up Box Card Wedding 2 file (here in Silhouette Store) and one of the spider webs from the Cat’s Ghosts Webs (here in Silhouette Store) file.

Next I overlapped the files. I moved them around until I was happy with the web design that was over the dress.

When I was happy with the placement, I clicked on the modify button on the top right toolbar of the Silhouette Studio Software. There are a variety of tools in the Modify window, but I used Intersect, which will display all the parts of the 2 files that intersect, while deleting everything else.

To use the Intersect tool, I selected both shapes on my mat, then clicked Intersect.

This is what remains after I clicked Intersect. The spider web was modified to be in the exact shape of the dress.

When I bring the dress back onto the mat, you can see that the spider web fits perfectly into the dress shape.

This is such a fun way to combine files! I added the updated dress to the tag, along with some other decorations and a sentiment I created with my sketch pens. It’ll be the perfect present topper! That’s it for me today, thanks for stopping by to peek!
