Cricut Expression 2: #5 Cutting (Final)


5 of 5 Intro Video to the Cricut Expression 2 Machine (5th Anniversary Edition). Jana Eubank for the Cricut Circle Blog www.cricutcircleblog.org

My mat slides around when cutting with Cricut. Paper sticks fine, but the mat slides in machine.?

My machine worked fine when I first used it. This is only the 4th time I’ve used it. I even tried guiding the mat by hand, but it still slides around and ruins the project. Please help!

problems cutting on my cricut machine?

I used the program “sure cuts a lot 2″ to cut out some letters with my Cricut machine. For some reason, everytime I use this program to cut anything, it cuts everything in threes. I hope this makes sense. For example, when I selected to cut the letter “L” it cut the letter in threes as opposed to just the singe letter. Can someone please help??? Thanks!

Can you make custom patterns for the Cricut cutting machines by Provo Craft?

I cant seem to find any thing that says you can make your own custom patterns for the Cricut I would be using something like Adobe Illustrator

If the only way to use the Cricut is with the preset cartages it makes no sense to buy this thing

If you find that you are shelling out quite a fortune purchasing cuts and designs for your scrapbooking hobby, you might contemplate investing in a die-cutting machine.

Selecting a die cutting machine that’s suitable for you doesn’t always have to be a difficult endeavor. Here are several things to consider:

1. Your budget.A good number of die-cutting machines are over $300. You’ll want to set aside how much you’re prepared to invest so you’ll have a benchmark price range. A number of die-cutting machines can be very expensive, however they have certain features that can’t be found in less costly versions. Keep that in mind so you can change your budget appropriately. If money is not a problem, then pass up this section and proceed to other factors.

2. Your current technical skillsDie-cutting machines are of 2 kinds: manual and electronic. Manual machines are the most simple to use, but they are restricted in terms of design and functionality. Furthermore, they are not appropriate for young children as it presents a threat to personal safety. Electronic models, on the other hand, are easier and often come with more functionality and design choices.
