adjust?  It looks as though the knife just skims across the design as it moves to cut something else.  Do I adjust the knife itself or the holder in front?

Yes, I am new to this...and it shows.

Might also just be your blade holder hanging up and not going all the way backup.  I would take the blade holder out and inspect your blade to make sure its not dirty or bent.  Then reset your blade depth and really inspect the holder and its receiver as you reinstall it.

Xmom, I would also check that your graphic is fully closed.  This can be done by trying the cut on text only, if it cuts text OK, and it only stray cuts on the graphic, it will be an unclosed graphic.  The graphic will have an open path, which causes the blade to cut straight across the graphic, you will then need to take into Adobe Illustrator or CorelDRAW close the path.
