How to Upload Gypsy Cut Files To Your Gypsy

Well... Today was the big day for the Provo Craft Gypsy! Provo Craft FINALLY provided the Cricut Design Studio compatibility and now we also have the added benefit of sharing Gypsy cut files... but it was at a price. I will get to that in a later post. In honor of this occasion though, I will be adding my Gypsy cut files to my blog for everyone to use. You will find my cut files in the top right corner of my blog marked *NEW (at the top of the side bar). The instructions on how to download at the bottom of this post. I hope you all enjoy them... they've been a long time coming. The featured pic here is the "welded Snow" file. It turned out BEAUTIFUL!

DOWNLOAD INSTRUCTIONS

For those of you who already own the Gypsy, here are the instructions. There is no conversion needed because these files are only .gypsy files. To save them:
1.) Connect your gypsy to your computer, turn it on and open Gypsy Sync on your computer.

2.) Once the Gypsy Sync Program has searched for an update and found none, it will open up a file window. Click on the + next to "Gypsy" and then click on "designs". A list of files that are currently saved on your Gypsy should appear. Minimize the Gypsy Sync screen.

3.) From the side bar on this blog, click on the file you would like to download. MediaFire will open. Click download and then save.

4.) From that drop-down menu, find Gypsy Sync and highlight it as the location to save the file.

5.) Once the file is saved, maximize the Gypsy Sync Screen and see your new file saved in the list. In order to see the new file on the list in your Gypsy, you may have to power your Gypsy down and then turn it on again to see the new file added.
6.) If you do not see the file in the list, click on the "Upload Files to Gypsy" button located on the bottom lower-left of the Gypsy Sync screen on your computer. Choose the file you would like to upload from the list by clicking it once to begin the upload.


GOOD LUCK everyone and I hope you enjoy these cut files.
**Cartridges Used: Don Juan, Christmas Noel
UPDATE: As of September 2010, Gyspy Sync was replaced with Cricut Sync. For UPDATED upload instructions click HERE. Also, all of my cut files are now found in the right margin of this blog titled "FREE Gypsy Cut Files".

Well I will be darned, but I cannot get this to download and save into my Gypsy sync files.
Grrrrrrrr, what am I doing wrong?
I feel that I am doing exactly what you have posted, but for some reason it is not showing up in my syce folder at all or on my gypsy even after many tries.
FitterTwit said…
It won't show up on your gypsy until you turn it off and then turn it back on... also, the capitalized files appear before the lower case files so be sure that your are scrolling COMPLETELY through the list. Good luck and let me know. Thanx for posting! :)
Does this work with a mac or pc b/c I have it connected to the mac and gypsy sync does not open up. Can you pls help me.

Be sure that you have the latest version of Gypsy Synch. If you do not, you will have to completely remove the first version BEFORE uploading the newest version (being sure that you select the MAC option). You can check out installation notes here: http://www.cricut.com/gypsy/updates.aspx
I hope that helps! :)

So when I use a cut file that you shared on a project, do I reference your blog when I post my work so people know that you created the cut file? If so, how do you keep all your cut files organized so you can give proper credit?

Anonymous...thank you for asking. Please just mention my blog. As far as my cut files being organized, they are posted in the left margin of my blog under FREE cut files. Thanx again! :)

Past 7 Days....

So Lame

So over at Paper Vineyard, the challenge was to create a birthday project and it COULDN'T be a card.  I've personally been creating WAY too many cards lately so I was happy to try my hand at something new..... only I didn't. :(  Instead, I was busy preparing for last week's Cricut Swarm.  Now, while I missed creating a project specifically for our Birthday Non-Card challenge, I figured the cupcake box that I made would fit the bill PERFECTLY for a birthday-themed project.  The box also has an insert for a cupcake to fit inside.  I made it with my Cricut (cuz of the whole Cricut Swarm bit) and while I ADORE this box, I sort of had a little melt down making it and I decided that this is the last Provo Craft product I will ever buy.... let me share why (read through to find out the cartridge I used for this project)! Most of you know that I DESPISE Provo Craft.  I hate that the Cricut is a one-of-kind product that I loved....

The BEST Copic Storage

**** HUGE HALLOWEEN GIVE AWAY... CLICK HERE !!!!**** Ok, so I've done posts in the past about various Copic storage solutions, but I was given THE MOTHER of all storage ideas by my friends Jennie Black and Krista Koenig!!!   Let me share with you the construction of the storage box and then I'll finish this off with the BRILLIANT solution my husband came up with.... cuz I married a GENIUS!!! What you'll need to create the AWESOME storage box pictured here is: 1 Double Deep Art Bin 1 plastic grid for ceiling lighting (found at your local home improvement store) 1 half inch thick wooden square dowel (also found at your local home improvement store) Dimensional adhesive squares Wire cutters or sheers Screws with corresponding drill bit Drill So I first cut the ceiling grid down to 19 squares by 19 squares using my wire cutters.   You will need two 19 x 19 sections of grid material.   The wire cutters went through the plastic material of the grid like b...

Evil Twin

*This is my second post of the day, for my inspiration project for Paper Vineyard, please scroll down.* Ok gang... are you ready for a fun one?!?  This time the challenge over at The Burtonesque Dolls is TWINS!!!  Flip an image to create TWINS!  Tweedle Dee and Tweedle Dum have NOTHIN on The Burtonesque Dolls BABY!!!  Check it out!  So I couldn't help myself!  I'm so in love with the Pipper new release over at Simply Betty Stamps , I had to reuse her again for this challenge.  I mean, come on.... she NEEDED an evil twin, didn't she?!?  hahahahahahaha!  It's hard to believe that she's the good one!!!  LOL!  I just wish this looked as good in the pic as it looks in real life.  For some reason I just couldn't get a good shot of this.  The row of black roses look perfect paired with that cute skullie.  That skullie is actually a button.  I removed the shank and filled the eyes with red stickles....
