TIP 3a:
When you are cutting images that are small, especially if they are layers for a larger image, make sure you cut a few extras, just in case.
I have noticed that sometimes the cut doesn't go all the way through or perhaps the mat was too sticky for for the little bit and a part tears off. The settings may have been "off" for such a small piece or maybe it cut perfectly and the little piece got mangled during gluing. Whatever the reason, better safe than sorry. Just cut a couple of extras with the ones you know you need and you should be just fine.
If you're using only your Cricut and filling up the entire page, it could become a problem IF you didn't make room for the little extras. This is especially true if you are using the last of that particular pattern or special sheet of paper. If you're using your Gypsy simply squeeze them in anywhere they'll fit. Easy peasy.
TIP 3b:
SLOW DOWN your Cricut when the image is small. I generally set mine all the way down to 1 for any small or intricate cuts and have had no problems. Before I slowed down, I rarely had a usable small image.
Hope you enjoy this blog. See you again.
Craftily yours.
