Launching the New Silhouette Portrait® 3

I have some EXCITING news! Silhouette has just released a new cutting machine, the new Silhouette Portrait® 3! I will be receiving one soon for an unboxing post and go more into detail there about the machine. But I can’t wait to see what all the fuss is about. I wanted to announce in this post that its available now to order and some of the great promotions Silhouette has going on right now.

This is a perfect cutting machine if your on the go or don’t have enough room in your crafting space for a large Silhouette Cameo.

Here’s some info from the Silhouette Store about the new machine:

The Portrait is a compact machine that allows you to create DIY projects with incredible precision. From cutting labels, to creating custom stickers, the Silhouette Portrait is a tool that every maker should have. With its light weight, the Portrait 3 is also the perfect machine to take to events, craft parties, or anywhere you want to be creative.

8-inch cutting width

Matless cutting capabilities (see Tech Specs for full details)
2 mm clearance

AutoBlade
Silhouette Studio® software (digital download)
50 exclusive designs (digital download)
1-month Silhouette Design Store subscription (available with tool registration)

Doing research on the Portrait 3 and reading up on it, it’s a comparable machine to the Silhouette Cameo 4, just smaller size.

Automatic tool detection
One-touch reset Autoblade (compatible with the Cameo 4)*
Pop-out matless cutting (cut paper without a mat!). See this video for a better explanation. I made it for the Cameo 4, but it applies to the Portrait 3 as well.
