I didn’t know that! I have photoshop, but don’t use it very often! Where can you find these shapes within Photoshop? @bberry43214 @brittant berry
Hi! I’m totally too late to actually help you with your order, but I would say that 1 pass is usually enough for a kiss cut, even for the cut through for the outside of the sticker sheet, I only have 1 pass, but with a higher force. I use force 1 for a lot of the different sticker papers I have tried! I would recommend doing as Rachel suggested and try lots of different cut settings to get that sweet spot of having the kiss cut, but not scoring through to the back of the sheet.
Also, there should be a blade cleaning tool thingy that came with your machine? I use the Portrait 2 and the tool is a circular piece of plastic that allows the blade to become exposed with a bit of force and you can (carefully) clean it when it gets lodged with paper.
Congrats with your first order and hope it worked out in the end!

This is lovely! I haven’t gotten started just yet, but this is definitely great! Did you buy this pattern or design it yourself? Goals! also, I hear you re the registration marks failing!! (double check your printer ink is not running low, that fixed mine at the beginning)
Hello! I’m Shika, I’m currently very new to my sticker creation journey. I got a Portrait 2 for my birthday in June and I’m hooked on it! It’s frustrating as heck and I’m wanting to build a network of fellow minded sticker biz peeps who can share help and resources with newbies like me who don’t know where to start. I’m grateful to have found this course to set me on a path to learn what an actual sticker shop owner does as I’m a fish out of water. My goal is to open a sticker shop, but I’m not there yet.
I’m definitely functional planner and I think I need the structure of the course to give me direction and focus. Right now, I’m trying to do everything at once and going nowhere.
Looking forward to starting the course and seeing what we all come up with!
Happy Stickering!
Shika
