Today I am sharing the projects I started on Monday with the Close To My Heart ruler. If you missed Monday's blog it's right here: Must Have Monday: The Close To My Heart Ruler. First is the layout:
I began by showing you how to use the ruler to get perfect placement of the kraft strip. Once that was attached I was able to place the remaining papers easily using it as my guide.
Once I got to the business of adding a title, I used my ruler again to ensure my title was straight by lining up the grid marks on the ruler with the glitter tape below the words. I simply then attached my letters right against the edge of the ruler.
Using the same measurement on the grid lines, the words flowed easily across the second page in perfect alignment.
The argyle I made using the stitch guide became the background in this 5x7" card. I used the stitch guide again to make the stitching around the top, bottom & right edges. I absolutely love when the tools I have make crafting so easy and puts an end to so much frustration! Remember, you can purchase your own ruler at my CTMH website, here.
