Should be a check box in your application- SignCut I assume?

I think its called a weed border... uncheck it......

You might have an unfilled object or white. Look in the color boxes on the RH side and see if there are any that don't match what you are cutting. Select only the color you want to cut and it should leave the other off. If the other color/non-color is bigger than your actual cut I'm may try to leave a larger area around your cut even though there is nothing there. You can draw in some tiling lines and X out all the empty space to solve that. 

 

You probably traced an image with settings that didn't ignore white so it treated white as an object (In Illustrator) You can prevent this in the design phase with a little practice.
