I am predominantly a Mac user, so I don’t mess with Cricut Design Studio much, but I thought I would try out the pop up card technique so those without SCAL can play along. Here were the results:
I only use products I love. I am not paid to create any videos. I am sometimes sent free product but will only use the product in a video if I choose too.Tha. Use the free Design Space ® app on your computer or mobile device to create, save, and share projects. Download images, fonts, and projects so you can design and cut even when you’re not connected to the internet. Flexibility to upload your own designs. Use your own images and fonts in a variety of standard file formats.
and here’s a screen shot (colors are reversed…the outside of the card is on the right):
You can download the .cut file here. Cartridge is Plantin Schoolbook. The finished card is A2 size so you can just use a half sheet of card stock for the outside instead of cutting one with the Cricut as I did above. For instructions on how to assemble the card, check the references on my earlier post about pop ups.
