While it’s natural to have doubts, I’m confident in the value that this playbook provides. I’m Caity, the founder of CaitysCrafts.com, a beloved DIY & craft blog that has supported countless craft enthusiasts in just the past three years.
When I first got my Cricut, I spent countless hours online navigating the ins and outs of Cricut Design Space. Through YouTube videos, blog posts, and Facebook groups, I eventually learned the ropes, but the learning process was repetitive and time-consuming.
To streamline my learning, I began keeping well-organized notes on my computer. Realizing the power of having a handy reference, I further refined my notes, added screenshots, and printed them out to keep right next to my Cricut.
This simple solution was transformative. With easy access to my note cards, I could quickly find the information I needed. Now, with extensive Cricut experience under my belt, I’m excited to share my knowledge with you! Just follow my step-by-step guidance, and you’ll be a Cricut pro in no time.
I’m certain this method will work if you trust the process. Already, more than 37,500 crafters have found success with this Guide, thanks to its reputation as the ultimate Cricut sidekick.
And if it doesn’t work for you, I’ll gladly refund your money with no questions asked. You truly have nothing to lose and everything to gain.
You’ve come to the right place. This Ultimate Guide features cheat sheets for the most fundamental tasks, ranging from initiating a new project to updating your app.
It’s the ideal companion for new Cricut users – you can print it out and place it next to your Cricut for easy reference each time you use your machine.
The Guide is here to assist you! If you’re like me, you may still need to look up how to perform less frequently used functions such as Print Then Cut, SnapMat, and Contour.
Moreover, when transitioning from my desktop to my iPhone, it feels like starting from scratch since everything is located in different places and has different names.
With these cheat sheets, all the guesswork is removed, allowing you to complete tasks quickly and efficiently.
Fantastic news! ALL of those platforms are covered. I provide instructions on how to perform each task across all the different versions of Cricut Design Space – Mac, Windows, iOS (iPad/iPhone), and Android.
So, whether you need to switch to your mobile device or back to your desktop, you’ll always be in the know.
The Ultimate Guide is a digital product so you can download it as soon as place your order. You can keep it saved on your computer, phone or tablet. Many customers even print it out and keep it near to their Cricut for easy access!
Absolutely! The Guide was updated in August 2023 and now incorporates all the latest features!
And you aren’t 100% happy with your purchase, then I’m not happy either. In this case I’ll gladly refund your money with no questions asked. There’s absolutely zero risk when yo buy this Ultimate Guide because you’ll get a full refund if you aren’t thrilled with it.
Good book
It’s useful, but it’s not as long as I thought it would be. Yes, it’s a lot of pages, but that’s because it covers PCs, Macs, etc.
It s good and helpful except for Print then Cut. I still can’t figure out.
Great resource, but didn’t realise it’s just a PDF rather than an actual book.
