  3. Thanks for the info! You're such a Cricut expert! I'd love to see some info on how to figure out Cricut measurements??? WHat do they mean when a rectangle is set for 7" and the machine comes back with the message that it's too big for an 81/2x11 paper? Or you set the measurement for a heart at 4" and it turns out to be 4x7? How do they figure the measurement of a cut out - height?width? etc? I find that very confusing! especially since I'm a Cricut newbie!

  4. Envelopes are cut fit to page...does this just tell us what dial size that actually is. I guess after reading that, I just didn't expect to see a column for "envelope size"...

  6. I bought this cart more than a year ago and have never used it. Time to get it out. And a huge thanks for all the hard work MamaC did on this.

  7. I was so excited when I heard about your chart!! Wild Card was one of the first cartridges I bought because I wanted to make cards with the matching envelopes but I have had so much trouble with sizing, I gave up. Thanks for the hard work you put in to getthing this for us and I will once again give the cartridge a try.
