  1. Loved your video…..so easy to understand. I am trying to figure out how to cut my dsp, to save paper like you did, for a portrait impossible card. I can’t figure it out. Have you made one? If so, can you share how you cut your dsp??? Thanks.

  2. Was looking for a video or a tutorial that explained how to cut the paper and to put the card together…and I found you!!! Yay! Your video was wonderfully understandable and easy to follow. Would like to make this card for my classes and wonder if I may use your video to refer my ladies to if they need help when they make this card at home.

    Thanks for the great video…
