I discovered a pretty cool Cricut trick the other day while playing with my Cricut
markers. I know that the original Cricut (which is the one I have) does not have
a multi-cut feature like the Expression does, but I figured out how to “trick” the
original Cricut into doing a multi-cut.

When you use the Cricut markers, select the shape you want to draw—with your
marker in the blade housing—and then press
CUT, to have it draw. Then you hit
LOAD PAPER to bring the paper back to the spot where it first began drawing.
You replace the marker with the blade, and then press
REPEAT LAST. The Cricut
then cuts out right where you drew.

To “trick” your Cricut into a multi-cut, all you have to do is start with a new
piece of paper/chipboard lined up in the corner of your mat. Load the paper,
and select your shape, then cut. Next hit the
LOAD PAPER button, and it will
bring your paper back to the point where it started cutting. Hit the
REPEAT LAST
button, and then cut. It will cut in the same exact lines as it did the last time.
Voila! Multi-cut!  
Just be careful not to press UNLOAD PAPER because when you
reload it, it will not line up exactly with the first cut!
