Valentine’s Day is here again! It’s a day to release our inner cupid to deliver a sweet message to our loved ones, without blushing! Why not create a handmade card to show how much you care about him/her? This will make your Valentine’s Day even more special and memorable.
***** HOW TO MEASURE YOUR PAPER *****
• The paper used in the video (Landscape) = 15″ (width) x 10″ (height)
• The ratio of the paper = 3 : 2
• Corner squares = 2.5″ x 2.5″
• The ratio of the squares = 1/6 of the width or 1/4 of the height
If you are using A4 paper (29.7cm x 21cm) and apply above 3 : 2 ratio, 28.5cm x 19cm (3 : 2 of 9.5cm) will be one of the easiest and largest size. The squares for this size will be 4.75cm x 4.75cm (1/6 of 28.5cm or 1/4 of 19cm)
For U.S. letter size paper (11″ x 8.5″ ), 10.5″ x 7″ with 1.75″ squares will be the easiest and largest to measure.
The same rule applies to any size paper you are using. Just remember your ratios are 3 : 2 for the original paper and 1/6 of longer side (or 1/4 of shorter side) of the paper for squares.
