Silver Bullet Cutters Forum

I saw something like this on a UKTV programme but only caught a glimpse of it so I am not sure how it was made up and I suspect it was more ornate. I stuck two 300 gsm cuts together to give it some "welly" and intentionally did not score the top of the back support leg as I thought it would weaken the structure. I am sure it could be made much more ornate if that is what you like. The support bar across the front is fiddly as to give it a nice finish I have made a box edge to the front. You could, of course, just cut that bit off and have a plain edge. I hope some of you can use it (card not included).





I haven't quite sussed out how to get the right size image on here in order to prevent having the scroll feature appear. At the moment it seems making the file larger works but I would prefer to add a smaller photo. Can anyone help please?

NB I have reuploaded the file as I noticed a minor fault and I have corrected it.

very nice Mary. TFS - I'm afraid I don't know about he sizing/scroll bar issue. Maybe someone who does will be along shortly. I think Tyler and Dawn were both signed in when I signed on a moment or two ago.

Oh, thank you Mary! This is so clever and useful.

Thank you Mary
Does it matter if you scroll? Its nice to see a larger image (which of course really means I haven't a clue how to stop the scrolling other than to make the image very small)

LOL Dawn. I have reduced the photo size to around 4 inches in one dimension but perhaps I just need to try something even smaller. If I make the size larger it will upload without the scroll bar but is a bit "in your face" then.

Cool! Great Job

Thanks Ms. Mary!

Nice file! TFS

Great file, Mary - as always. Thanks for sharing. Will be wonderful to have that on hand!

What a beautiful card!!! I love the soft elegance of it!!

Good grief Mary! I was so taken with the easel you made that I didn't even comment on the lovely card! It is just beautiful!

Wow, Mary - your stuff always looks so classy! You really have good taste.

Regarding the image/scrolling, generally, there is a limit of 350px. It is set that way so that if someone attaches a bunch of pictures at too large a size, people won't be scrolling for an eternity.

However, if one wants to see the full picture, all they have to do is click on it. It is really easy and fast to do (especially if they are resizing the pictures so they aren't huge files - thanks for doing that, Mary!). For others wondering, if you place the image inline with your post (there is a button to do that after you have attached an image) that will allow you to get rid of a horizontal image scroll bars to a certain point. There is some automated image size adjustment within the forum.

By default, no pictures are shown automatically. Just links. I've tried to adjust it so that it will show a thumbnail of the image within the post, and I made that thumbnail pretty big so people don't have to do tons of work navigating and downloading to just see an image.

But, honestly, great job with the card and easel!

Oh, Mary

This will be great for using to photograph cards. Seeing that I am a lousey photographer. This will make it so much easier.

Thank you Thank you Thank you Very Much

Thank you Tyler. I feel quite embarrassed at your glowing comments. Cardmaking has been my hobby for some years now but since having the Cougar there has been no holding me back. I am never happier than when I am designing and being retired I am able to do it every day.

Thank you, also, for explaining about the photos.

Mary,
I can't believe my luck today!!! I was searching for this very thing just yesterday. Great job on the easel AND the card.
Thank you!!!!!

You are all very welcome.

I was just wishing I had something to take pictures on. What perfect timing. Tyler is right - you have such elegant taste and I love it.

Mary has some beautiful files. She is very talented.

Mary,
When I think of the right adjective to describe your easel, I'll be back. But for now I will have to settle for awesome. But I know there is a better word. Thank you for sharing. - Sharon

Everything Ms Mary does has a classic elegance! Timeless and beautiful.
