Hello Thursday July 2012
Back again with the July Hello Thursday cartridge release.
Three carts were announced this month - Fontopia (a font cartridge plus some cool looking card bases), A Frighful Affair (Halloween) and Close to My Heart's new cartridge collection called Artiste. Like the previous CTMH collection the cartridge comes with co-ordinating stamp sets and chipboard sheets.
All three have already been added to Design Studio. You can download the new Cartridge Content from here: http://www.cricut.com/cds/Update.aspx
As usual, go check out the Cricut Blog to see more fantastic work from the Cricut Design team.
Provocraft have done something quite different with the release of Fontopia. Not only have they released the full cart that includes a monogram font set, crests and cards, they have also released for sale digitally just the monogram font set, just the crests and cards set and all the monogram letters individually.
However...only the full cartridge is available on Design Studio. But if you use Cricut Craft Room or a Gypsy you can make use of the digital downloads.
Cricut Craft Room has everything available to purchase separately as listed above.
The Gypsy contains the full cartridge, the Monogram set and the Crests & Cards set. The individual monograms aren't available.
I think it's a great idea that PC are now going to be offering individual images for sale!

June Hello Thursday
Well, a very late Hello Thursday post from me. I've been sick with the dreaded Flu but am finally back!
You've most likely already seen (and possibly purchased) the carts from June's Hello Thursday announcement but just in case here they are.
There were two carts released in June - A Quilted Christmas (can't wait to get that one) and Dr. Checkup. That looks like a fun cart!
Both have just been added to the Design Studio Cartridge content update. You can get it here: http://www.cricut.com/cds/Update.aspx
Interestingly, PC have also added the CCR Basics cartridge to DS. I'm not sure how that's going to work but I'll give it a try and see what happens!
See you around the 19th for the July cartridge release. Some of us were lucky to see a sneak peak of a cartridge called Create a Critter 2 in CCR. It looks similar to Create a Critter 1 but the animals appear to be dressed in seasonal outfits. Can't wait to see if it's released this month!

Spring Cottage reference sheet
If you've purchased the Spring Cottage cartridge you will know that there is no handbook or tri-fold card showing the images. So, I put this together and hope you find it useful!
Here's a sample:

DS for Newbies manual
Back when Design Studio was first released I started putting a beginners guide together. For some reason I never got around to posting it on the blog. Instead I concentrated on putting individual tutorials together.
Well, a month or so ago I dragged the guide out, dusted it off and finished it!
So, if you're new to DS or just want a refresher on what the program can actually do, here it is! Just click the link below to download the PDF.
If you find the guide useful I'd appreciate it if you could become a follower (if you're not already).
If you wish to share the guide with your friends - great! However, I'd love it if you could direct them to this blog rather than just share the link to the file.
Till next time!

Hello Thursday - February 2012
Yes, I'm a bit late again.... :)
And you've most likely already seen the new carts for February. But just in case you've been on a desert island for the last 4 days here's the cartridge release for February.
3 new carts - Garden Soup, Tags Bags Boxes and More 2 and Creative Memories Divine Wedding.
All 3 have already been added to the Design Studio Cartridge Update along with the 2 missing carts from December - Victorian Romance and CM This & That.
All images are from the Official Cricut Blog. Make sure you go check it out! The Shirt box on TBBM2 is so cute! And I'm told (thanks Scrapalette) that the Cracker actually pops!

Finally fixed!
It took me 2 days and lots of swearing but I finally got my blog back to normal.
I've decided I don't like Blogger very much today! It's been acting weird for about a week with things like my Edit button (the little pencil) going missing.
For now I'm just glad it's back to it's pretty self and I didn't lose any posts!

Note to self...
Several notes actually...
1: Drinking two cans of V Energy drink and 5 cups of coffee will result in insomnia.
2: Insomnia means that you'll still be awake at 2:00am. Then you'll decide that it's a great time to do some work on your blog...using your iPad because you're away from home visiting your Mother for the weekend.
3: Working on your blog at 2:00am means you'll stuff something up badly and not have your backups available to fix it.
4: Next time read a book!!!
So, this is how the blog has to look until tomorrow! :(
