The problem with Silhouette files and my projects are getting the cutting and folding lines to really line up well with the finished printed project. They have to be exactly "on" because if they aren't everything gets shifted. If you were cutting out a one piece flower and you've printed on the whole sheet (or a part), the way you load the paper into the machine doesn't matter too much, yk? Does that make sense?
My first try wasn't too bad, but my second was shifted too much. I sort of gave up after that! hehe I'll get on it in a few weeks and try harder.

Mine usually was spot on but having trouble since they updated the software to include the cameo to get mine to line up right...when my paper loads it either takes it in too far or not deep enough...hit and miss. I need to actually contact the support guys and see if there is a fix for it.

Yes yes! I would buy an "update" to all of your hybrid projects that I have purchased ... if the update was the cutting files (you know like an upgrade charge)

Either that or go to a previous version? I don't think I have upgraded my software ... will wait to hear what you find out.

Hey Sharon...sorry I did not let you guys know but I resolved the issue...my settings were off and I did some pretty paper flowers using the Print and Cut feature and everything was spot on! HTH

Mari and the rest of you have totally inspired me, so as soon as my new office furniture arrives and I can unpack all my office and crafty stuff I'll start working on the Silhouette!
Mari, do you have the machine that prints and cuts or just cuts? NM, I just realized what you meant - using the registration marks you print onto the page with your project...
