11/07/2024 6:00pm 11/07/2024 7:00pm Cricut Software Overview

Anybody who has used the library's Cricut Maker 3 knows that its Cricut Design Space software can require a little training.  In this hour-long session, we'll share the tricks you'll need to create and cut your projects with confidence.

We'll cover things like:

  • Starting and saving a new project
  • Recommended ways to use the left-hand icons to find and incorporate things into your designs
  • Using the combine and contour features to remove unwanted elements and determine where exactly your lines will cut
  • How to get the correct layout before beginning the cut

Note: We won't spend much time explaining the Cricut and its capabilities in this session.  If you haven't attended an "Intro to the Cricut" session here, you might want to watch a few YouTube videos for some background before attending this intermediate-level class.

Have you had any particular troubles using the Cricut?  Bring your questions or email them to us in advance!
