Oh no Jane, I am wondering what you are doing as I use my print and cut feature all the time without incident. I wish I lived closer to you and I would love to assist you and get you to love the Silhouette as much as I do. I use it every single day and I am sure there are things that even I don't know how to use. Keep trying. I do like to add a tiny offset around my image rather than have the machine cut the actual image, it gives the image a little white frame around it which I like and might eliminate some of the frustrations of lining up the image?

I did make the flower. It is thick acetate I put alcohol inks on, then heated to give it the dimension. Well, heat and a little twisting and squeezing here and there, while hot.

It turned out so great! I'll have to give that a try some time. Great job!
