Gold HTV Baby Vests


Hi! Bev here with a tutorial on how I created these beautiful personalised baby vests, which I gave as a gift to my friend at her shower.

What you will need:
  • Silhouette Cameo® or Silhouette Portrait®
  • Silhouette Metallic Heat Transfer - Gold
  • Silhouette Smooth Heat Tranfer Material - Black
  • Baby vests - plain white
Step One:

Open up a fresh page in your Silhouette Studio® and import your design from the Silhouette Design Store.


Resize as necessary to fit on the front of the vest.


Once you are happy with your design, flip it horizontally and select the correct cut settings on your machine. I played around with the cut settings and found a combination that worked for the gold HTV.  (I wanted to make a few to complete the gift so I added a few more designs on the same page and set the cut settings the in the same way)


Step Two:

Once the vinyl is cut, weed with the Silhouette Pick-Me-Up tool.  Using an iron on the hottest setting and the steam turned off, lay the design onto the vest and press.  When the vinyl is adhered, the plastic backing will come off of the vinyl cleanly and easily.  Repeat the process for the other designs.




I have really enjoyed sharing with you and can not wait to see what designs you choose for your vests.
