Just thought I'd post this little tip here. It may be nothing new to some or all of you, but I just discovered how to use it.
I recently found that I really DO like to have a sketch to work from. If you have a PrintMaster program, you can paste a copy of the sketch you're working with onto a blank page. From there you can manipulate the size so you can create your card at whatever dimensions you want. If you're using a digi or vintage image, etc., you can paste it over whatever section of the sketch you want it on and it really helps you figure out what size to print it out at. I find it a lot easier to figure out dimensions to cut my paper pieces at too.
If you're really brave and into designing your own layouts and sketches, you can use it to make a mock up of what your page/card will look like.
