Lots of exciting things are happening at Silhouette Secrets+ and I cannot wait to share it all! I will be headed to the Silhouette Summit this week in Hawaii. This is the first one since covid cancelled it in 2020. I cannot wait to share from Summit and connect with others!
This week I wanted to share some of the things I’ve been working on behind-the-scenes to prepare for new events and announcements coming!
Silhouette Secrets+ Website Updates
This summer, right before I lost my external hard drive with 9 months of data, I had just updated the look and flow of the Silhouette Secrets+ website. I had recorded a video tour, but lost it with the hard drive crash and it’s taken me awhile to get back in the swing of things. But, all things happen for a reason and I’ve had lots of updates since then, including new logo updates and more!
With the update to the Silhouette Secrets+ website, I am hoping it is easier to find the resources that will help you best.
On the home page, you will now see a brief introduction to me and if you scroll down the page, you will see buttons to click on for more information on the most searched topics when viewers come to the Silhouette Secrets+ website.
Video tour available on the Silhouette Secrets+ YouTube channel HERE.
Silhouette Secrets+ Newsletter
Lots of things have changed over this past year and I continued to get complaints from Facebook followers that they were not seeing content even though I post all the time.
So I set out to find a new way to get information delivered direct to those who want it. I have recently launched the Silhouette Secrets+ weekly newsletter. This newsletter is delivered every Friday directly to your inbox with tips, tutorials, news, announcements, classes, events, and more!
Now, you might be saying – Weekly? Holy cow! That’s a lot! YES – I know – because I have to write the content every single week, so it’s a new thing added to my plate. So there are 2 reasons for this right now.
First, I have Silhouette content dating back to 2016 when I first started as Silhouette Instructor. That’s a lot of information that is still relevant to users today! With a weekly newsletter, I can share tips and tutorials that will help user’s on their journey. Each week will be different topics and if might not be something you need right this minute, but I’m getting lots of great feedback that it is very helpful for most. Or you might find that it helps you help someone else with the information provided.
And the next reason, is frankly, money. This is a service I have to pay for. It is a cost to me and in order to make the most of it, I decided weekly was the way to start.
Silhouette Secrets+ Newsletter
Never miss out on the news, tips, “secrets”, deals, classes, and more that I share on Silhouette Secrets+. Sign up for the newsletter and get information delivered to your inbox every Friday.
Unsubscribe at anytime.
Once you subscribe, make sure to look for the confirmation email and confirm you want to receive the subscription. I cannot resend this confirmation and the newsletter will not be delivered until you confirm you want to receive it.
We’ve also seen where some email providers are known to block emails – yahoo is the worst, but sometimes gmail does it too. The confirmation email is sent pretty quickly. You can try to search your inbox for “Silhouette Secrets” or “silhouettesecretsplus@silhouette-secrets.com” to see if it will pop up. If you do not see it after a time, please try to subscribe again. I have done everything on my end securities wise to have the best chance to be delivered to you.
If you still do not see it, you can send me an email at silhouettesecretsplus@silhouette-secrets.com and I can see what I can see on my end to try to help it get delivered.
Silhouette Secrets+ Blog Notifications
Since 2016, I have published information on the Silhouette Secrets+ blog. Followers can choose to subscribe to the blog to be notified by email when a new blog post is published. This is completely different than the newsletter and is sent out direct from WordPress when a new blog post goes live.
If you want to have those delivered as soon as they are released, make sure to subscribe above or come back to check out what’s new on the Silhouette Secrets blog HERE.
My goal is 1 new post a week, but sometimes I get excited and cannot hold back my fingers from pushing publish as soon as it’s written.
Silhouette Secrets+ on YouTube
I have also been putting out video content on the Silhouette Secrets+ YouTube channel. Some tutorials are easier to show on a video while others written instructions are easier. So it’s a balance, especially when a tutorial is getting photo heavy, a video can be easier to view.
Here are a few of the most popular videos lately on the Silhouette Secrets+ channel

Silhouette Supplies
Affiliate links may be present in the following blog post and as an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases.
In 2022 I was connected with a Silhouette retailer by Silhouette America to work with and I wanted to share that. I always recommend keeping extra blades and cutting mats on hand as a good practice. This will save you time, money, and frustration when you are in the flow of creating with your Silhouette.
CraftCuts is my authorized Silhouette retailer that Silhouette America referred me to. Check out their website HERE.
They have free shipping with a $35 order and have bundles to help stock up on supplies too! Use code SECRETS to save 10% with my link HERE.
Silhouette America does still sell direct as well, however, they no longer have free shipping and I know that is a big deal to many. Shipping costs can get expensive for both the shipper and the buyer. If you are a Silhouette Club member, you can get free shipping with a $50 order from Silhouette America. Use my code 10OFF to save 10% at Silhouette America with this link HERE.
*note – coupon codes may not apply to deeply discounted products, bundles, or newly released products.
I am looking forward to sharing more content with you soon!
Happy crafting!
Enjoy !
