If you can return the Cricut Expression you purchased, I would do that. SCAL, as well as Make-the-Cut both third party software programs, were sued by ProvoCraft and are no longer sold with cut to Cricut capabilities. I will be upfront with you and tell you that I own Make-the-Cut and love the software. I purchased it when you could still cut to a Cricut Expression, which I also own, but don't love. I think I see a Silhouette Cameo in my future. The new Silhouette will cut 12 x 12 and will cut with MTC...I don't know about SCAL, but you could visit their forum and see if it would work with their software as well. Also, there is a new cutter out, introduced by Make-the-Cut. It is called the Zing and will cut heavier materials than what the Silhouette Cameo will, but is also pricier. Pre-orders of this machine are currently being shipped with another shipment from overseas due in a few weeks. The Zing sounds like it will be a great machine and will currently only work with MTC...no cartridges and like a "kazillion" free cutting files out there! The only problem with the Zing for me is the price...$400 for something for me to "play" with seems a bit much. Waiting for a great price on the Silhouette Cameo!
Sorry to be the bearer of bad news!
