Hello Super Cute!

Some cultures think we should see death as part of life, so Halloween deserves to be celebrated in style.

In this tutorial, you will learn how to Decorate Cushions for Halloween with Silhouette Cameo, if you have Cricut, Brother, or any other cutting plotter machine you can use the format compatible with your software and follow the tutorial. 

When you download a design file it automatically downloads in SVG, Ai, DXF, Studio3, and Webp formats.

Plus I’ll give you lots of free design templates for you to enjoy making your DIY arrangements for this remarkable date. 

In this tutorial, I will show you how the finished cushions look using the design templates that I have free for you,  and I will also give you a summary of the process.
