The Great New Software For Your Cricut Machine
If you?re already using the Provo Craft Cricut cutting machine and you want to enhance the way you use it then the newest addition to the range is just what you need.
The Cricut Design Studio is a new software package that adds extra versatility to your Cricut or Cricut Expression machine. By connecting your machine to your computer and installing the software you will be able to change the way you use your cutting machine. The software is simple and user friendly. You don?t have to be a genius with computers to use it and you?ll easily be able to utilize a multitude of creative effects.
How the Design Studio Works
With the Cricut Design Studio you can select images from any cartridge you own and use them all in one design. Images can be flipped and rotated or resized to fit your new design. The design can then also be saved for later use or before it is even finished. Once you?re certain that the design is just right, just press one button and insert the first of the appropriate cartridge. If the machine needs to use a more than one cartridge, it will tell you to when to switch them around. It?s as straightforward as that.
Another benefit of Design Studio is that you can examine every available design in the entire Cricut library, whether you own the cartridge or not. Simply type in keywords to search for a particular image or phrase and you can see exactly how it would look in your projects. This will help you decide if you want to purchase a particular cartridge or not. You can even preplan your design and save it until you get the necessary cartridge or borrow it from a friend.
Are There Disadvantages to the Cricut Design Studio?
Presently this software is compatible with the Windows XP and Windows Vista platforms. Unfortunately for some Cricut fans, the software is not yet Mac compatible and so cannot currently be used with Macintosh computers. Besides that, the only restriction you are held to is having to sit at your computer desk while you work. Crafters with laptops will enjoy much more freedom and can design as they watch TV.
Overall, the Cricut Design Studio is a wonderful addition to your Cricut collection. The software is reasonably priced, considering it started out retailing for $89.95, but is now available for as low as $59.95. The benefits you receive are well worth the cost. Take your crafting to a whole new dimension with the Provo Craft Cricut Design Studio. You are only limited by your imagination.
