Explore Cricut Design Space with Artbooking - Close to My Heart

I decided to make a video showing how to use the Cricut Design Space software with the Cricut Close to My Heart Artbooking cartridge. The Design Space software is used only with the Cricut Explore machine.

There have been questions about how to size the images, find the images, etc.  Check out the video below to see how to do this (click HERE if you can't see the video):


Also, to make matters easier, head over to the Non-Crafty Crafter's Blog HERE and download the Artbooking handbook that has all the image codes in it. Narelle spent a lot of time compiling this info so be sure and follow her site and leave her a sweet comment!


When you spend $50+, you can pick up the

January stamp of the month, shown above, for just $5!

You can order on my shopping site HERE.

    2014 was hugely challenging for our family as well. Very hopeful that 2015 will be calmer and productive. Been praying all along for you and your family in this difficult year.

  20. I was blessed with a new granddaughter this year. 2015 I will watch her grow

  21. While the last year would surely seem blessed for 6 of my closest family members, & one close family friend, their blessings caused a hole in my heart. Seven deaths in one year?!!! really?!!!! All of the generations above me are now passed I remember as a child when I remarked to my best friend, "I don't know anyone who has died." The blessing in that last sentence, is that I recall the conversation, because 50 years later, she is still my best friend. What has really been found to be a blessing are all of the SCRAPBOOKS I have created. They are PROOF OF LIFE. I always journal in them a lot, and save ephemera. Now, my adult children and grandson recognize that those silly scraps of paper are significant, and the thousands of hours I have enjoyed in my art studio produced invaluable documentation of their childhood memories with their grand parents, great grandparents and great great grandmother who lived 100 years, 279 days! Every family member that has died has entrusted their photos to me, so I will be enjoying a lot more time in my art studio, with my memories, my scrapbook supplies, and doing honor to their memories. 2015 will be a blessed year.

  24. good morning joy! i hope you can help me with a couple of mini artbooking album questions..i used the explore and cut out one ( the one with the giraffe) of the two baby mini albums , setting the height at 8 inches..everything cuts out great. i want to incorporate pages and items from the 2nd baby album (the one with the lion) and i see it already is sized differently from the first album. i edited the size of the pages to match what i thought would be the same as album 1 (8in height)..well the pages cut bigger! i wanted the pages from both albums to cut the same size...what am i missing? thank you for any help you can give me as this is very frustrating! marie
