Cool Probably a dumb question

I want to find sone card "recipes",where I can see a sample and have the dimensions of all the parts needed. Is there a place like that? I've been dormant for awhile, so maybe I just need a push in the right direction. I love Pinterest and You Tube. If they tell the dimensions I don't have time to write them down and have to re-watch to get them.
That's how I remember the earlier catalogs doing with the example cards.
It was helpful. I've been stamping quite a few years so I should know everything, right?😳

I like to use the sketches at Operation Write Home. They give the dimensions of each card part.

I printed them out and put them in a 3-ring binder. I keep it near my stamping table and refer to it often.

I was going to recommend OWH but someone else beat me to it. If you click on the particular sketch you can see examples that crafters have shared. Love having the measurements too.

At StampTv Gina has tons of videos with all the sizes. That is where I really learned a lot. Great site.

I remember an English professor telling me once that there are "no dumb questions. What's dumb is when you have a question and don't ask?".

Thanks for the link to the OWH sketches. Awesome!

Thank you, Lydia. I couldn't think of the name. ☺️
Paige, OWH sounds like the perfect place. I'll go there too. Loretta, that really is true., makes me feel better. Thanks!

I've been away from Splitcoast for awhile, but now I remember what a wonderful, friendly, helpful place it is!

If you check the Splitcoast challenges, there's a Wednesday sketch challenge - back when Roxy was posting it, her sample card usually listed the dimensions of the different layers.

They weren't posted in the thread with the sketch - you have to click on Roxy's sample card and read the description underneath
