So do watch out my work..weekends I'll be on off.

Too Easy Grid Tutorial

Naah, I'am not trying to copy Beate's Grid Technique , she has written an excellent tutorial. I just tried to create that grid look using my laptop, scale & scoring tool. As I dont own a Score-Pal

Here the tutorial with pictures.

1. Mark the grid lines on the back side of the sheet. And keep the sheet on laptop .

2. Using a scoring tool, mark the scores as per the grid lines. Please check here you will keep the sheet between the spacebar & next key line...to gain the space & mark the scores.

3. Mark the scores as per your grid lines.

4. Once u r done with scores...you can use stamp pads to get this effect & the grid. Have a close look..this is the front side.

Since here in India I couldn’t find much colors but tried using closest colors used in the challenge.I don’t think I’ll win but atleast I’m able to place in my card in her comments section that gives me immense pleasure.
I’ve been a gr88 admirer of her work..be it any video…ribbon tying..paper star I watched it all. Didn’t miss any of her blog entries.

And pink is for joy...
I wish all these colour may fall On you & your family.

Happy Holi to everyone..!!
