Melissa is awesome!!
I love the videos and blog to learn and perfect my craft. I do recommend you have a Silhouette to get the most out of your membership. Now I'm considering getting myself one.

Love the updated videos!
I have recently watched some of the updated videos and I love it! Especially the one for downloading from the SoFontsy website! Great job, Melissa! I actually think I may be able to do that without getting frustrated now! :)

Loveing it!
I’m loving, anything Silhouette! So much information to learn, that as a newbie, my anxiety goes in overdrive. I will conquer all, and later, think why did I get so overwhelmed lol.

Silhouette U
I've only had my silhouette for a couple of years. I learned SO much from Melissa. I come here any time I need to know something, and I recommend it any time someone asks for help with theirs. There is always something new to learn

Exceptional Resource
I am new to using silhouette studio and have a cameo 4. I have been watching Melissa's videos on YouTube and joined silhouette U to have more access and get better at my crafting that I do for enjoyment.
