WHY WOULD YOU WANT TO MOVE IMAGES FROM ONE PROJECT TO ANOTHER ?

 

Reason 1:  Some of you are probably wondering why would you want to do this ? Well lets say you spent a lot of time finding or creating an image for a project and maybe even made a few edits to get it just right.  You make that project. Time goes by and you want to make something similar again. So instead of re-creating the wheel, you can now just copy and paste that image in to another project you can use. It saves a lot of your time !

 

Reason 2:  The other thing you might use this for is when you create a project that you are customizing with a name. You would want to save that project under its own name.  Maybe you are making them for holiday gifts so you will make a few with different names.  Being able to copy and paste to a new project and change the name and save would make this process so easy !

 

I am sure there are plenty of other reasons why you would want to use this new feature to copy and paste images from one Design Space project to another.

Is the Copy and Paste Feature in Design Space something you see yourself using ?  I know I have already used it a few times and love the fact the Cricut Design Space Desktop App users have another tool they can use when creating ! Leave me a comment and let me know what reasons you may have to use it.

We would love to have you join us over in the Lets Learn Cricut Design Space Facebook Group to continue learning more about using Design Space.
