Creating Cards Using Card Maps/Layouts

In the past, I have created cards using card maps/layouts by starting with the card base. I still struggled finding the perfect image to use on a specific card layout.  This time I stamped the image and then looked through my card map/layout pins on Pinterest (HERE)  and created the card from the top layer down.

If the sizes vary greatly, small adjustments are needed for the black and patterned paper.

The tassel is homemade, I used DMC 5 100% Cotton embroidery thread. DMC's cross stitch thread is too thin. Stampin' Up!'s baker's twine would definitely work as well as crochet thread. I lost my original instructions on how to make tassels.  I used this VIDEO but modified it; practice, practice, practice.

I cut my pattern paper at 4" to get more cuts out of a sheet; whether it is 6" x 6" or 12" x 12"

Getting The Most of Your Treasured Designer Series Paper

I hate when my 6" x 6" paper only nets one card layer, don't you?  I found this layout that I wanted to try.  Instead of destroying my paper and only getting one card I decided to use a scrap piece of paper and making a template.

My template was the same size of the card (4" x 5 1/2").  I laid the paper down at the angle I wanted and traced the outline.

I can't cut a straight line, so I cut the template this way for a more accuracy.  Using the template I created another one.  You may have to play with the position of the template on your card base.  The second time I created a template, I was able to get two pieces out of my 6" x 6" paper.  Happy Dance!

I can't cut a straight line straight, I placed my template into my trimmer to get a more accurate cut.

Line up the two templates on your paper and trace.

Attach to your cardstock and using your trimmer create a 1/8" mat. The top and sides are not trimmed to expose the cardstock.

Non Traditional Christmas Card

I have always made my Christmas cards centered around the Birth of Jesus Christ.  This year, I wanted to do something different. I was inspired by a layout found on Pinterest.

UBER Leaves a Blind Man Stranded

Many of you are aware I have an adult son that is legally blind. This is what Uber did this week. The refused to talk to us but they did refund his money and that was it. This is the second time this has happened to my son in two years.

If you don’t see the video - check here http://abc3340.com/news/local/blind-man-says-uber-bailed-on-him-because-of-service-dog

This is Uber!  They hide behind their app, website and email.  They refused to provide a phone number and they refused to call us. They slapped the driver's hand lightly and sent her on her way.  

They had two years to review with each and every employee to follow ADA rules.
