You definitely should not change the size of the boxes themselves. The only adjustment you should make is to drag the top, left, and right margins almost all the way to the edge so that everything is visible when you print.

The actual boxes from line to line are 5" square.

Jo

What happens when you try? Are you able to download it? Open it?

[ScrapGoo]

I know it works for some of you so it isn't corrupt or anything!

Ok I stink at cutting out stuff how I was such an avid sewer for so many years boggles me but I guess fabric is more forgiving So for me to get the cut right I scanned the cover and decreasesd the size and made a template that will leave a bout .25 inch border but you could resize it if you want something different. I was going to upload tot he gallery but duh won't be the right size! If you want it let me know and Iwill email it to you.


Jess I love your classes if it weren't for the classes I would get nothing done ever! I think most of projects have come from classes at the crops over the years. I have wanted to this for so long wheeras my family is huge and no one can remeber all the dates anymore! I am making a bunch to give to family members for Christmas Thanks for the fun!

thank you, Jess. I will give that a try...knowing the size will help in the end anyway. i wish i was better at doing things like that on the computer.

Brilliant idea with the scanning! I just fly by the seat of my pants and hope it looks ok! LOL

And thanks! I thought this was a pretty useful one.

Yay, i got it to work! What i had to do is change the "zoom" to 100% it kept coming up at 135%...see i told you i didn't know what i was doing...but yay, it works now!

[j3xs]

Jo

[ScrapGoo]

YAY grandmabonnie and Jo!! I am so happy to hear you got it!

I edited my post - uploading the template won't work...


Jess you must have a very steady hand because your cuts are always perfect!



Idid get the word file to work but my computer did a few wierd things saying it couldn't and the program was going to shut down but it didn't word popped open after quite a bit with the file all I did was click on the boxes and used my arrows to move them in a little - my right margin cut off but I think that was my printers margin setting and not Words' because I changed that - it worked for me in the end!

[Ashjoy]

This is taking me forever! I just now have the 12 things printed and cut. LOL

[ScrapGoo]

::fingers crossed:: that all works for you guys!

Ashjoy, the rest is the fun part!!

I totally brain-cramped! I got the cover finished but then realized that I have the holes on the sides instead of the top. Do you think sideways opening will look ok or do I put holes in the top with my cropadile?

You know what I would do?

I would cover the back side of it with a piece of paper so it covers the original holes, use the other cover to mark where the new holes should be, and use your cropadile!

[Scrappin13]

That's what I was thinking I would do because the old holes won't show, I'll just make new ones.

Would love to, but have to go to work - I bought everything though so will do it later!
