Trying to cut the heart box and I want it bigger. It seems to be too small. Anyone have a measurement for a large box?

If you are using just a Cricut, the size you enter is the height of the image {the total image, not the finished box}. So keep that in mind when selecting your size.
If you have a Cricut with the Fit To Page feature, use that and your Cricut will cut the image as large as possible to fit on the mat.
If you are using one of the Cricut design programs {CCR, Gypsy, DS}, size the heart using the grid to get it as big as you want it. Since CCR is free, you can download it and use it to "see" the size image you want even if you don't want to cut with it.
I'll go look at the box in CCR. BRB.

Using CCR, it looks like the largest size on a 12 x 12 mat is 8.5 inches. scrapalette attached the following image(s):

I have a expression. I thought that particular box was on the smaller side. I can manipulate the size by spreading it but it would be uneven to fold

Since you have and E and the image is bigger horizontally than vertically, you could use a 12 X 24 mat and rotate the image and get a much bigger box.
