Links to Cricut Handbooks


Cricut recently made some changes to its website and, unfortunately, they removed the cartridge library.  You can still find links to the cartridge digital handbooks by going to the specific cartridge via the shop and scrolling to the bottom of the page. For those of us who refer to the digital handbooks often, this is a pretty labor intensive protocol for comparing multiple cartridges.  I thought it might be helpful to have the links back in one place so I have posted a list of the cartridges I have reviewed on this site so far and linked them to their handbooks.  I will update this list with each new cartridge overview.

  5. Thanks! I just realized the cartidge library was gone from Cricut.com and had a heart attack! I can't believe they did that! That's how I decide whether or not I want a cartridge.

  6. Please check the link for Beyond Birthdays. It pulls up Tags, bags, boxes, and more. I'm sure with this many links, it was bound to happen. Thanks for the hard work in putting this together!

    1. Hi Sandra,
      The Christmas Noel cartridge is a solutions cartridge so it did not come with a handbook, or even a tri-fold. The only thing they provided was what was printed on the back of the package. I don't know how to post it here, so I put it as a link in the big library list above. I hold this helps. I know sometimes it is hard to get started without the visual.

  9. I guess Cricut has decided to take all of the digital handbooks down. I have tried clicking on several from your Web site as well as the handbooks on Cricut and receive an error - no longer available.

    Have you run into this?

  10. THANK YOU so much for letting me know. I had no idea. They are back up now. This happened once before and I panicked! It ended up just being a short outage - maybe they were doing maintenance or something... I am so relieved the handbooks are working again - I hope they are working for you.

  23. I'll have to agree with everyone else! You are awesome for compiling this list! By printing out these booklets on regular paper(I'm printing 2 pages per sheet), I can keep images of ALL of what I have in one notebook and can browse easier than having to dig out each booklet! I spent a day last weekend making little boxes to organize the cartridges to make them more accessible, and now I'll have a nice neat notebook to go with them! THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!

  29. Thanks so much for creating this library...much appreciated!!!! I too like to see what the cartridges print before I buy them. I find the handbooks have so much to offer than the back of the box, that I am more excited about purchasing the cartridge! I also like to print out an extra copy of the handbook, because it is so much easier to have everything in one binder. Thanks again!

  51. I agree with others, thank you for this. I just went on the Cricut site and thought very un user friendly. Why would they remove this? You saved the day, found you after a few google searches. Exactly what I needed. You are a star :)
