Hey, I'm not any help on using design studio, but I definitely recommend invest in in the new Gypsy by Cricut/ProvoCraft. It's well worth it, and will do everything design Studio seems to do and more, welding, stretching, skewing, using multiple carts on the same cutting mat, ... then you just hook it up to your Cricut, and send it to be cut (by clicking buttons on the Gypsy) It's hand held and portable, and if you watch the ads, you can score on fro 279.99. It's preloaded with two carts, Gypsy Font (which is GREAT to weld with) and Gypsy Wanderings. You can access the whole Cricut library, however, you may only cut if you have purchased and loaded the right to that cart onto your Gypsy, good luck with your Design Studio though!!!!
