Congratulations!!!
(Although, I thought this was a thread about the board game "Wahoo" and I was wondering why it was in GS.  )

Sure Cuts A Lot
- it is a program you can use with the cricut - hook it up to your computer using a usb cable and cut any true type fonts you have - plus you can create images for it to cut as well - or use shared svg files - there are lots of free ones out there!

Will you let me know how user friendly it is?
I have CDS and I have it down not to a science but I want something more. I have seen over at the cricut MB thing they have done and I am like wow. I also want to know can you still design with the cricut cart, in SCAL? ( but not have the cart)

user friendly - it seemed pretty easy to figure out what to do.
It shows me all the fonts I have on my computer, and I selected what I wanted. I played around with some tools and learned how to resize and move it around on the mat.
I still have lots more playing around to do, it seems like you can trace around images and sorta make your own paper piecing type stuff.
I haven't quite figured out the .svg importing stuff yet.

I think it is easier to use then CDS to tell the truth. And much easier to make shadows with! I've only been using it a few months and I have done a TON with it!
