call me foolish or whatever, but where is the pattern to download?’
Elain, up towards the top there is a “Paper Box Supplies” list it says design space link… click on that.
Hope you get it figured out… 🙂
The design space link is dead….
It worked for me, try again.
When I click the link, I get this message: Download not available, private project
I am not able to open the link to design space. It says it is saved as PRIVATE. can you update the link and let us know
I am unable to open design space link on computer because it says project is saved as private. But I was able to open, design, and cut from my phone. Weird!!
Same here unable to open. Indicates it is private.
I was just able to get it into DS on my laptop – try again.
The link was marked “private” on my laptop. It opened on my ipad, but when I chose “Make It,” it required a purchase for $1.99.
It would be nice to put a comment next to the link above (fee or small fee).
Thank you!
