Sure, here's a step-by-step guide on how to cut stickers on a Silhouette cutting machine:

1.     Open the Silhouette Studio software on your computer and create a new document with the size and orientation that matches your sticker design.

2.     Import your sticker design into the software by clicking on "File" and choosing "Open" or by dragging and dropping the design file into the workspace.

3.     Adjust the cut settings by clicking on the "Send" tab on the top toolbar. Select your material type, thickness, and blade settings. Make sure to do a test cut to ensure that your settings are accurate.

4.     Prepare your Silhouette cutting machine by turning it on and connecting it to your computer with a USB cable. Load the cutting mat into the machine and adjust the rollers to fit the width of the mat.

5.     In the Silhouette Studio software, click on the "Send" tab again and choose the correct cutting mat size and orientation.

6.     Place the sticker paper onto the cutting mat with the adhesive side facing down. Smooth out any wrinkles or bubbles.

7.     Load the cutting mat into the Silhouette cutting machine and press the "Load" button.

8.     In the Silhouette Studio software, click on the "Send" button to send the cutting job to the machine.

9.     Wait for the machine to finish cutting your sticker design. Once the machine has finished cutting, press the "Unload" button to remove the cutting mat from the machine.

10.  Carefully remove the stickers from the cutting mat and use them as desired.

That's it! With a Silhouette cutting machine, you can easily and accurately cut out your sticker designs. Remember to always test your cut settings and to handle the cutting machine and materials with care.
