Product Review: Cricut Design Studio By: Provo Craft
The Cricut Design Studio is a great tool for Scrapbooking.
So, What is the "Cricut" Design Studio?
It is a software that works in conjunction with the Cricut. Using your computer you are able to layout and view the cuts you intend to make prior to making the cuts. It allows you to see what your project will look like instead of wasting paper. I have been using my design studio software since this past Christmas and I would not want to go back to not having this tool. Another great thing about this software is the ability to view projects of cartridges that you have not purchased. If you see a font or design that you would like to use, you simply lay it out in the software and if you like it, them you can purchase the cartridge. You can find more information at the link below.
You will want to make sure your computer is compatible with the software before purchasing. Here are the requirements of your computer.
Operating System Requirements: Windows XP SP2 or Windows Vista 32-bit 800 Mhz Processor Speed 512 MB RAM 100 MB Free Hard Disk Space CD/DVD-ROM USB Port 1023 x 768 or higher display resolution settings Please note that only unopened software may be returned to us for a refund. Defective software must be returned to the manufacturer for a replacement. Happy Scrappin, Teresa
