Re: HELP!!!!! Newbie and in dire need of help to be crafty

I think you will find that a lot of us "old-timers" have a very bad taste in our mouths about ProvoCraft, the makers of the Cricut. Their customer service was horrible and the machines seemed to have problems quite regularly. For that reason alone I would never recommend the Cricut. You ha...

Re: Fonts not filling

Re: Deeper outline cut around actual pattern

You would have to cut twice but it can be done. Make a shadow layer for each of the objects and then remove it from the mat for the first cut using the layer bar, cut your design as usual and then remove the design from the mat the same way and cut the shadow layer. Just be sure to increase the forc...

Make sure that your mat is not bowed. It may need to be replaced.
