    I recently purchased the wild card cartridge. I tried a couple times using it and find it very confusing. The book isn’t even that helpful. There is so much on it and I don’t know how to use a quater of it. Do you have any help or guides to use this cartridge? Any hlep would be greatly apprecaited.
    Take care

    I have a question. What weight paper is good for making the envelopes in Wild Card? Cardstock is to heavy.

    I am having a lot of trouble using the new Wild Card cartridge It looks fabulous but the book tells me very little about this cartridge.

    Is there a book or something that a person can buy to inform you of all the things the cartridges can do for you?

    I just bought this cartridge and have a question… I have the original Cricut which only cuts up to 5 1/2 in. I tired cutting a few different cards and they say it wont fit.
    Any one have any ideas?

    I too am VERY confused but I found a LOT of help on youtube. There are a number of videos that gave me some helpful information. Do a search for Cricut Wild Card. I realized though that to get the most out of the Wild Card cartridge you really need to have the larger Cricut cutter. The smaller cutter isn’t large enough for the size of envelope and card. I guess I need to invest in one.

    thanks so much for the last message. i was so looking forward to buying this cartidge, but i have the original cutter.
    i guess all the new cartidges coming out work better with the expression.
    i will not buy this one.

    I just found a youtube video that said to cut the envelope first and make it a fit to page setting for the cut. Then notice the size that it cuts so that when you cut the card you can set it to that size. All attachments that you choose to put with the card will be at the same setting for that card. Hope that helps

    For all you having trouble with Wild Card, check out the “Scrapping Grandmother” site. She has a downloadable chart for the cards that can help you.

    I have the baby cricut, and I got the Wild Card cartridge. It won’t let me use the envelopes button. I had made the card just fine at 4 1/2 in; but when i wanted to make the envelope, it wouldn’t let me. WHY!!??

    In the begining of the booklet there is a practice card to make with instructions. After I made this card I understood it all better.

    Can anyone answer why the box states that this cartridge will work with the orginal cricut and cut up to 5.5 however it won’t allow the envelopes to be printed? Is this by design?
