DIY Sugar Skull Seals - Maritza Lisa

I’m playing with my Curio and Silhouette’s free shape this week to bring you these cute DIY sugar skull seals. I even successfully experimented with the Print and Cut feature on this lovely little machine – and guess what? It works perfectly! Oh and guess what? You can save $15 on the Curio with promo code MARITZA – Happy Friday, right? This offer is good through Nov 24 2015. So if you need one, go on over and let me know how your first project goes!


The What

The How

  1. In Silhouette Studio, go to the Design Settings Page and confirm that your page and mat are showing Curio settings
  2. Create your seals. I created mine as circles (1 in. wide)
  3. Open the Sugar Skulls shape. Add some color (using the fill tool) and set to No Cut
  4. Adjust your Registration Marks settings so that they fit the smaller Curio mat
  5. Set your blade to Cardstock settings in the Tool 1 (red) slot
  6. Send to print
  7. Load your cardstock on to your mat (note: peel the blue protective sheet off first).
  8. Load your mat and other platforms onto the tray. In the settings, you will see 6 platforms are required. These are the platforms that come with your Curio bundle. Each one is labeled with a 1 or 2 (which counts as the number of platforms). Your mat counts as 1. So you will need a two 2s and a 1, then your mat (2+2+1+1=6)
  9. Load your tray onto your machine, and send to cut using Cardstock settings. The machine will read your registration marks and cut your seals
