It mis just the shape and it's overlay which you access using the shift key. It is also better on the larger Cricut as it tells you on the back to cut some of the shapes at a larger size.<br />Hope that helps<br />Take care<br />Melanie xxxMelaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09416849538893789369noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8459526786477913090.post-42783271383682437742012-05-10T07:51:48.112-07:002012-05-10T07:51:48.112-07:00Hi Mel

I used Cindy Loo cartridge and my Expression2, I put in a deep cut blade and asked for it to do 3 repeat cuts. At the end it hadn't cut through it though. I ever tried repeat last and did another 3 cuts but no luck, it wasn't even cut half way through. The Doflex is 1mm thick should I be using something thinner or am I doing something wrong?
