Yeahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.
I've tried it with a ruler. I suck at it. I mean, I took trigonometry and geometry and physics and all sorts of crap where you'd think I could use a ruler. But no.
However, I realized that if you CUT A RECTANGLE FROM ACETATE and put temporary adhesive on the back, you can stick that sucker on your project and trace the edges and still SEE WHAT YOU ARE DOING AT ALL TIMES. Just remember to pull up gently so you don't tear your paper. And make sure your PEN WORKS before you start or you'll have to start over and color those stupid gladiolas a second time. Hahahahaha!
Thanks for looking!

This looks amazing, Emily. The thin line really does add such a nice finishing touch.

such a sweet card, emily:) the acetate is a great idea, too!
This is so gorgeous! Awesome coloring!
Emily this is gorgeous! One of the best cards I've ever seen using this set. I think your wonderful coloring is what makes this so great!
Very pretty! Great tip.
Looks totally professional. I love the cut-away effect you get around the word "MERCI".
I like the 3x BLING placed along the border. HOME RUN!
Now that's what I call a handy tip!! Gold! Gorgeous card!
This is beautiful!
Great tip to go with a lovely card! Thanks.
your flowers are gorgeous!
This is lovely! Your color choice is wonderful. And the placement of the frame is perfect. I love seeing how differently all the cards are coming out just based on where there's an opening left in the frame.
Great Card Emily--love the colors and the frame is perfect!
Oh wow, this is gorgeous! Love it! But now you've got me wishing for the gladiola stamps, argh...lol!
I love your tip about using acetate! Made me laugh out loud! Great job - love it!
This is fantastic! I like how you incorporated the three dots/brads/? to create balance. Merci, for showing us!
Really gorgeous, I love your colouring. Very elegant.
This is gorgeous. i love the little brad accent in the upper right corner and the colors in these flowers are stunning.
Absolutely gorgeous!! Your coloring is beautiful and the bling in the frame is perfect!
I think that's why I am not a CAS person...I can't do perfect like that. I love how you make clean cards but they can still have lots of color...and your shimmery flower centers are always fun.
Fabulous card. The colouring in the flowers is spot on and great tip about the acetate.
Beautiful card, Emily. I really like the little gems on the lined frame. It adds such a nice touch. The colouring on the flowers are gorgeous.
Emily........This is just awesome!!! The bright colors, the little rhinestones, and the inked frame (with the acetate.....what a cool idea) are all just amazing!
Fab card, gorgeous colouring (as usual) and what a great tip to use acetate and trace around that! I also struggle with frames so may give this a go :)
gorgeous as always!! love your card!
