It will be a symbol of love and appreciation for taking her hobby so seriously and still valuing it. I have created numerous DIY crafts for a long time, and this blog will teach you all how to use Design Space for Cricut.
Cricut Design Space is an easy-to-use and easy-to-learn design software that allows crafters to give their ideas the proper form. The Cricut app provides tons of images, text fonts, and ready-to-use projects for free. Besides, this software is compatible with all the Cricut cutting machines & Heat Presses.
If you have recently downloaded the Cricut app and want to make your first project, check out the information in the section below.
Step 1: Create a Bookmark Design on the Cricut App
Let’s start the process of how to use Design Space for Cricut by making a customized bookmark by going to the Shapes tool and choosing a square. After selecting the shape, change its dimensions, and it will get into a proper bookmark shape. Next, press the Images and type Splash inside the search section, and a gallery of those designs will appear. Select any design from the library and tick the Add to Canvas option.
Now, resize the design and place it on the bookmark design. After that, press the Text option and write the text inside the box. Then, change the text size, color, font, and style and set it inside the bookmark. To cover the gap between the letters and words, select Weld and place them closer to each other. After covering up the spaces, go to the Flip tool and tick the Flip Horizontal option.
Step 2: Stick the Material on Your Cricut Cutting Mat
In this step of how to use Design Space for Cricut, remove the plastic cover from the vinyl and place the material on the cutting mat. Cover all the sides of the material with painter’s tape so that the material doesn’t slip from its place.
Afterward, move your Cricut Brayer tool upward and downward to settle the material in its place. Now, turn on your crafting machine and load your Cricut cutting mat into the cut-die machine. When the cutting process is complete, stick HTV on the same mat and turn on the Cricut machine again.
After cutting the material, take your weeding tool and remove extra vinyl from the Cricut mat. Following this, slowly weed out the HTV from the design using the weeding tool and keep the final design at the other end of the table.
Step 3: Preheat Your Cricut EasyPress Mini Tool
In learning how to use Design Space for Cricut, remove the sheet from the acrylic blank and clean it with baby wipes. After doing that, place your bookmark design on the blank. Now, preheat your EasyPress Mini at the lowest temperature settings.
After that, cover the entire bookmark with a Teflon sheet and slowly cover the craft by putting a little pressure on it. If you come across that the design needs to be adequately shifted on the blank, then wait for a few seconds and use EasyPress Mini again for perfect heat transfer.
Step 4: Show Your Final Bookmark
After transferring the design, follow these steps to complete the project:
- Let it cool down for a few minutes, and then slowly remove the sheet from the blank.
- Remove the material from your vinyl and place it on the backside of your bookmark.

How to Use Transfer Tape With Cricut: A Beginner’s Guide
02/22/2024 at 13:10 • 0 commentsI’m glad you are here to learn how to use transfer tape with Cricut. Using transfer tape for your regular Cricut projects is very simple. I will cover a real project that I made using transfer tape. This accessory is as important as any other Cricut supply. However, if you haven’t used transfer tape before, I’ll ensure that you understand everything about it.
When I first started, I was a newbie, too. But, gradually, I came to understand all the important accessories and tools of Cricut. One thing that most crafters face is that they often get confused about which transfer tape to use. If you are one of them, don’t worry – I will explain it to you too.
What Is a Transfer Tape?
Before learning how to use transfer tape with Cricut, you need to understand what it is. A transfer tape is a strong grip tape to transfer iron-on vinyl onto the material. It holds the vinyl and then smoothly transfers it to the desired material. Generally, there are two types- Regular and Strong Grip transfer tape.
The regular transfer tape is great for general projects, whereas the strong grip tape will be useful for glitter vinyl, where you need extra effort to pull off the tape. So, if you are using a strong iron-on vinyl, you should use a strong grip transfer tape.
Where Do I Get Transfer Tape From?
Well, I use Cricut’s brand for all my craft needs. Cricut’s things suit my projects, and it has become my all-time favorite stuff to use now. But it’s all about someone’s choices. So, if you find some other brand good, go for it. Try different types of brands until you find your perfect one. I have been using Cricut’s transfer tape from the start, so I have never gone to other brands.
How to Use Transfer Tape With Cricut?
To get started with the transfer tape, you need to make a cut with your adhesive vinyl with your Cricut machine. I often use my Cricut Explore Air 2; you can use other Cricut machines, too. As you are a Cricut user, you know how to cut vinyl with your Cricut machine.
Once you cut your vinyl, weed out the excess of vinyl from the final design. So, when you get the design you need, it’s time to apply the transfer tape using my easy steps.
Step 1: Cut the Transfer Tape
In the first step, you need to cut a large piece of transfer tape compared to your design. You can use a transfer tape multiple times before disposing of it. There is one benefit to using transfer tape.
Step 2: Peel off the Backing Paper
After that, you need to peel off the backing paper. You can apply the transfer tape back to the backing paper to use in the future. Let’s move to the next steps to learn how to use transfer tape with Cricut.
Step 3: Apply the Transfer Paper to Your Design
In the final step, you need to transfer the design and smooth it down using a scraper so no wrinkles or bubbles are left. If you don’t have a scraper, you can use your credit card or a gift card, too.
Step 4: Peel off the Backing Paper
Now, turn your piece and peel off the backing paper once again. Next, the tape will only be left with the design. You can press the transfer tape once again to take a neat and clean design. When your design is ready on the transfer tape, you can apply it to your material. Now, let’s proceed to the next step to complete the process of how to use transfer tape with Cricut Maker.
Step 5: Apply the Transfer Tape to Your Material
Then, you need to peel off the transfer tape once you place it on the material. Ensure that the vinyl sticks well to the surface of your project. If it does not stick well, remove it and burn it well once again. And then reapply on the material.
Conclusion
Finally, you have learned how to use transfer tape with Cricut. I am sure you will find this process easy peasy. A transfer tape is really necessary to apply adhesive vinyl correctly. So, if you are a regular Cricut user, a transfer tape is a must have for you. So, wait no more to get a suitable transfer...

Which Is the Best Cricut Machine You Should Buy In 2024?
02/20/2024 at 13:31 • 0 commentsIf you are a crafter, you may always wonder which machine is the best and which is not. I can totally relate to you. When I started out as a crafter, I was greatly influenced by the internet, people, and friends. But there was one blog that really helped me make the right choice for me. So, if you are on the same page as I was, I am in your rescue. When you are looking for the Best Cricut machine, you should not think twice about it as these machines are amazing.
Through this guide, I will be telling you about the top 3 Cricut models that have been game-changers for most crafters and that can become a milestone for you, too. I am gonna talk about Cricut Maker, Cricut Explore, and Cricut Joy. All of these machines are old models, but they are very suitable for newbies. Let’s understand what these tools are.
1. Cricut Joy
This is really a fun machine that makes your crafts perfect and provides precise cuts and draws excellently. Also, it can use the Cricut Design Space software, a personalized software for all the Cricut machines. You can use many interesting designs from the Design Space Library and use them in your projects.
This excellent machine is compact and portable and measures 5” x 5” x 8”. Plus, it uses a wide range of Cricut materials to cut, including Smart Materials. Also, it’s the only machine that uses a card mat for making multiple cards simultaneously.
However, you can’t make bigger projects on a Cricut Joy and cut hard materials such as wood, fabric, chipboard, etc. Also, you can’t use the Print then Cut feature on it. So, overall, this machine would be a perfect fit for crafters who want instant crafts. So, if you are a teacher, mother, or student, Cricut Joy can be the best Cricut machine for you.
2. Cricut Explore Air 2
This is another machine on my list. However, this machine is big and can be used for complex projects. With a colorful lineup and elegant design, it attracts a large number of people. It is capable of cutting more than 100 materials easily with its sharp blades and impressive build-up. It needs a cutting mat of at least 12” x 12” to cut different materials.
Explore Air 2 can cut lots of materials, but it can’t cut thicker and harder materials like wood, leather, and fabric. In addition, it doesn’t allow matless cutting and can’t use Cricut Smart Materials. So, whoever has a minimal project requirement can use this machine.
3. Cricut Maker
Here comes the strongest Cricut machine that has various impressive features and can cut a wide range of materials. But why is it the best Cricut machine? All thanks to its powerful tools like blades and housing. Well, the tools of the Cricut Maker are interchangeable with that of the Cricut Explore. Hence, you can use them on both of these machines to perform engraving, debossing, engraving, and many more things.
Plus, the machine is known for its advanced cutting features and compatibility with a wide number of materials, from delicate to complex, such as fabric, wood, and even leather.
Hence, it’s clear that this machine is already ahead of the competition in every aspect and can deliver work faster and better than any other Cricut machine.
However, this machine doesn’t facilitate matless cutting. Apart from this, there is no point where this machine doesn’t persuade the users. Overall, this machine would be a perfect fit for serious crafters who are driven to create something unique.
Which Cricut Machine Should You Consider?
Since all the Cricut machines are pretty good, you need to decide what your expectations are as a crafter. So, when you are searching for the best Cricut machine for crafts, you must understand what type of projects you are gonna make. So, if you are a seasonal crafter and rarely need a cutting machine, you can get a Cricut Joy that will match your needs and offer you flexibility.
