Hi i'm new here and the owner of a new Cricut Expression. Well I will be when the brown truck rolls in here tomorrow. LOL I was wondering if there is any way to get the Cricut to cut a layout I print out. If I do a layout of a box and then print it out on my cardstock is there a way to run it through the Cricut? Hope someone understands what i'm asking. LOL
Thanks a bunch

There are some posts here about cutting pre-printed items. I'm not sure what they are called or how it's done.

I'm thinking you would use the Cricut markers to print the image before you cut. When you want to cut, do not pull out the paper, only change the blade, then cut. I've not tried this though i do have some markers. You might search this forum for "markers" as I think there are previous messages about doing this.

Hi! There is a program called Sure Cuts A Lot that will let you cut any image you draw, any font on your computer, and dingbat, wingding, etc. I LOVE this program, you do not need any cartridges to cut these images. If you have any questions, please feel free to e-mail me at info@i-scrapaz.com.

Thanks for the info. I did send you and email. I'm really hoping that I can cut box templates that I have made up and then printed out the design.
