Hi everybody it's Sam at Mixed Up Craft thank you for watching my tutorial today. I'm going to be showing you how to make some well I've got two style boxes they're made exactly the same way but they're two different sizes because what I've done here and what I started to make and I thought these I know not everybody's going to be able to get if you're outside of the UK. I mean I could be very wrong but I thought when I was making them I thought I don't know if this is really going to be used by a lot of people and then I had these that I want to make a box for and this is a nicer this is one and a quarter by three and a half by three and a half tall so that's quite a good size you can put you know all kinds of things hand cream stuff like that. So I'm going to show you how to make both because they are yeah both are nice handy size inside here if you're wondering these are these great big chocolate pennies or half penny. It's a shame really because I was I wanted to try and take that sticker off but it leaves all of you know the mess that stickers do and it's on the queen's face and I I quite wanted the queen's face on the front but it doesn't matter instead we've got the boat there so all the ship even and I think they look adorable really really sweet I've done one that's going to hang on the tree because this one is going to be for someone that I know will hang out on the tree and it just opens at the top and then oh actually I did put a glue dot on the bottom but then I thought to myself it doesn't actually really need one so I can just prize that one off and probably um you know do away with the with the glue dot is it is entirely up to you this one here I don't think I've done it in this one it's when I realized I've done it in both well maybe I did oh well it was I don't know why I did because it wouldn't move but um yeah I think on this one I thought I won't do the glue doll so and they're lovely and the chocolate's nice it's fair trade chocolate and I've I've actually I do enjoy that chocolate because you know some of the um without sounding snobbish some of the cheapy chocolates taste cheapy I don't like it so but these ones taste delicious this one here are these smarties they're little penguins now on their own that's quite cute as it is I guess but I make packaging so I like to make something a bit more fun so I just done this and I think it's really really sweet again all made exactly the same way and you just open up the top there and then you've got that one which I didn't um stick down so yeah I think that's really sweet and they will be enjoyed and no doubt eaten very very quickly so let me show you how to make these okay so I'm going to give you the scoring for both and the both will be on my blog and then I've got my pattern paper for that one and for that one I'm almost done on my little packaging now so yeah some bigger gifts you just have to kind of just wrap I can't really make gift bags for some of the largest pieces but um all the little bits it's been really fun this year so for the this size so for the the thicker size one you want a piece of card stock that's nine and three quarters by six and a half and along the nine and three quarter side you want to score it three and a half four and three quarters eight and a quarter and nine have this quarter inch tab then rotate it and score at one and a quarter four and three quarters and six okay so that's for that one and then while I've got my scoreboard if you want to make that thin one I picked up these from the co-op but I would imagine they're sold in other ways but I don't know if it's exclusive to the co-op for the you know this kind of size and I think they were on offer it was three for two I think they were 150 each something like that so they are nice so this is the nine and a quarter by five and a quarter for this one along the nine and a quarter side you want to score a four and one eighth of an inch and four and a half and then eight and five eighths of an inch and nine so again you'll have that quarter inch tab you only need a small tab and then along the shorter side you want to score three eighths of an inch four and a half and four and seven eighths of an inch okay so that's the scoring and then I'll also just tell you the pattern paper pieces so for the one to make this coin you'll want two pieces that are three and seven eighths of an inch squared I'm using this beautiful cardstock and it's one that I made all those lovely bells from the Christmas decorations the white Christmas is just so pretty and then for the smaller ones I've used the Christmas tails so two pieces of that and then the acetate I think it's the same size yeah so that's three and seven eighths of an inch squared as well the acetate is optional you know it doesn't have to be there so again don't worry if you don't have that and also you can put some vellum in there if you want to have something and um yeah it doesn't stop it falling out I guess because I've put the glue dot on I mean that wouldn't fall out at all that one wouldn't either because the circle's not big enough but that's for the gold coin and then for the smaller but thicker one this is a piece of three and three eighths of an inch squared you want two and again the acetate must be the same yeah all right so that's all your measurements we'll go through those circles and everything in a moment okay so I'm going to put one of them on high speed so I will show you how to construct one the other one is exactly the same even the cutting and everything so what you want to do before we cut and score it's probably best to die cut your window and it doesn't have to be circle you might want to do a square isn't it again entirely up to you you can always change these things up which I know many of you do but I'm just going to get some washi tape and I just want to sit this circle in the right hand side so you've got your left hand square here then you'll have your side and then you've got another square here it's within that square that you want to pop your um you know whatever shape it is that you're going to cut and you want to make sure that you have even border there won't be much you'll be about a quarter of an inch there to that score line there to there and to the top so I'm just going to pop some washi in the middle and do that one there and then I'll get this one as well so you can just see maybe see a bit clearer so you're working within this big square here ignore that square ignore the side it's this square and the diameter of these is because these physics dies cut from the inside which I like I wish more dies would do that it's a diameter of two and seven eights but three will be fine it's kind of just in between and that's for the thicker one and then this one here is just under three and a half so again I'm just going to stick this one in place and run those both through my die machine okay that larger one I've just squeezed through my germini it's got it and actually a little bit mucky on the top but all of that oh that's just not cut that last little piece um is going to be trimmed away most of it anyway so it will go through it will roll the edges ever slightly but as long as it's on the this end we're going to cut most of that way she only need a little bit of it on so I'm not too worried about that okay so those are now all cut out now if you the next bit I'm going to do you might prefer to do it once you've stuck your paper down so you might feel that you want to stick your pattern paper on here first then put your die and cut both through both layers you might just have to use like your metal shim or something I'm doing my separate I just prefer to do it that way I don't know why because I tell you that you can do it without doing it that way but hey ho it's entirely up to you I'll just like to show you different ways because we've all got our preferences so I'm just going to add some glue to one piece of the pattern paper for both of these boxes and stick it on the side where you haven't done your circles so just get that stuck down there you might as well do it while it's all flat and if you're using a directional paper you just want to make sure that your tab is on the right hand side and then you know that you've got your box up the right way so I'm just sticking that one in there like so okay so this is to decorate around here and you again you might not even want to do that so you don't need this for the minute I'll put them there so the smaller circle you just want to sit within this piece it is like I said it's very tight you've only got a small little piece but I do like it with the pattern paper on it but it will fit inside the size that I gave you here so as long as your inner cut line circle sorry is five is two and seven eighths of an inch then it will you know be fine for this size so I'm just going to pop that one there do the same with this piece and get those cut there must be something wrong with that die because it's almost in the same place on that one it's definitely not the machine because it's cutting everything else and I've been using it a lot and it's been fine so it must be that die keep these are always handy for little gift tags so you know if you're doing something that's got matching you've got the white ones from before so you can layer it up just put a little hole punch there and you've got a nice little gift tag ready to go so that's probably what I'll do and that one there as well so don't throw anything away next we just want to stick down the acetate so the larger acetate is going to go behind this one here and you just want to use your thinnest tape so I'm using the red tape here and this is I'll do it in millimeters because it's it's four mil and you just want to really butt it right up to the edge because you don't have much overhanging and you don't want any of the stickiness to come into your actual frame so I'm just going to do this on both pieces of acetate just go around the very edge okay so I've got my smaller piece of acetate for this one like I said you're doing them both the same way I'm just doing both because I need to get them done so I just thought I'd film it all and just make sure that your tape doesn't show and that that acetate sits within that square and just push it right down make sure all the air bubbles are out and it should go darker in colour and now we've got that nice window and then with my piece here that's going to go right over the top and sit within that square like so so I'm just going to use some of my calau and just you don't need much at all you see what I mean you've only got a very thin piece around the side so it's completely optional you may want to use some inks and colour your cardstock or use a colour cardstock maybe an embossing folder you know you might want to stamp your paper with your card you don't have to do the pattern paper like I have but that's just the way I've done this one because I do like it and then just sit that following that circle and because you kept it in the middle of the square piece it will fit into this square like so I'm going to pull it a little bit because I'm going to put tinsel trim around this one so it will cover that little bit of white but now you will have this also you might want to fold and burnish your lines once you've cut your hole out of you know your aperture out of this actual cardstock you may well want to fold and burnish everything then because you might see your you know the sections better but now I can fold and burnish all of these score lines okay so they're all ready now I've gone ahead and already cut this one but I'm going to show you on this one and it is exactly the same way because these boxes like I said are exactly the same they're just slightly different sizes so with the tab on the that little quarter inch tab on the right hand side you just first of all you want to cut up these score lines here so cut up those like square so you've got that square piece there and then along here and here cut that little piece out at the very bottom which is this piece here you can see I've cut up those ones the same and then just go in and just take a wedge of all of these bits okay take a little wedge off of the tab so again you've got nothing hanging over the edge hanging over the edge that's something hanging that's my accent coming out and then you just want to cut on that score line and that score line again cutting a little wedge off of that one and remove that very thin piece all the way down there okay and then you want to cut up that next score line and cut down that one so now you've removed that and this is going to be your tab for the top so just cut a wedge I wouldn't go well don't go crazy crazy because you want it to be able to lock in but just cut a nice wedge and then so now we're along this side you're going to cut down these two here okay this whole section here you're going to remove so I'm just going to bring in my other scissors there and just cut away the score line take that piece out completely and then we're on this one here you want to remove that top piece and then this is another tab so just take a wedge off like I said don't go mad I probably took too much off that first one it probably still be okay but you want this piece here to lock in against them so with this top piece you just want to take a little slither off of each end because you can always take more off if you want to if it's like quite tight when we go to close it then you can always go and cut a bit more away but I always say take a little bit off first and then go back into it so now you will have two if you're doing both these sizes but you can see exactly the same as you've got your top piece and that flap you've got your tabs I've got the top piece and the flap and the tabs you've got your tab on the side tab on the side and then your four pieces along the bottom okay so I'll construct this one and then I'll do that one on high speed I'm just going to use my fast grab the cosmic shimmer first of all along this tab here this tiny little one just going to add some glue and then fold this over in fact you might want to just okay if you're using a wet glue I'm just going to spread that out a little bit because I don't want it oozing out onto my acetate and then just fold that over and stick that down yeah it's okay it's not come through so that's that done so you can see now it's all coming together and then with the base I always like to stick the back one up first and then I'm going to pop some glue on each of those like so and then put one on the back and then stick that one down and turn upside down you can just go in there with your bone folder spread everything out and then you just want to bring all that down and it should that one's not going in right maybe it's a bit too long I'm just going to trim that bit off that yeah so see there I've got it's a little bit too I need to take a little bit of cardstock off so I'm just going to cut down you'll see wherever if the cardstock rolls then there's pressure so you need to remove it but now there we go locks in ah that's what I remember doing I trimmed it can you see it's coming over there now you might be disguising that I haven't disguised it because I just cut it away but how it depends on how you decorate so for the for example the tinsel there will probably end up covering that let me just see I'm going to take a little bit off because I did say you might end up cutting a bit off so I'm going to just take that 1 eighth of an inch off you still want it to be able to obviously close which it does yeah that's better all right so just snip a little bit away but that's now done I'm going to cut the side pieces give you the measurements for those in a minute I'll put it on high speed but this is just some of my pipe cleaners from my Christmas stash that I found and so I'm just going to go around and stick that around there and then I've used one of the Christmas tails and I'll put the little Merry Christmas one on there because that's from the matching collection so I'll do all that this one now I'm going to quickly just stick together okay so that one's now all finished I'm just going to show you or give you the sizes to those pieces and again this one here and I've just cut these bits here so these strips for this one are a quarter of an inch by three uh no by four sorry and you just want three one for the side two sorry one for each side and one for the top and then this one here you want three pieces that will go just check that I've done them right yeah I did and these are one inch by just over three mine's just over three and a quarter but three and a quarter would be fine so I'm just going to stick those down there it is all finished so it's two gift boxes and one really in this tutorial these are very very cute these were actually from Iceland as well in 99p the little penguins I think yeah they're nice little gifts and then these just look really quite luxurious they are nice very very Christmassy look about them and this is very much my kind of color um kind of you know I love the reds the greens and the golds or silvers at Christmas if you do want to have the hanging part that's just some gold mirror card stock that I just stuck before I stuck the patterned paper on the back you could put some ribbon in there if you wanted to it's entirely up to you but I really do yeah I think they're really sweet so thank you for watching hope you've enjoyed it all the supplies measurements for both boxes will be on my blog and the supplies list is always shared below please give me a thumbs up if you enjoyed today's tutorial and consider subscribing so you get to see more thanks for watching bye


So hello everyone, a formal good evening to all of you, I am Anshil Mathur and I am working as a lead engineer in the test automation department at QA in Kotec, Noida. My topic for the day is an automated item to test accessibility, as the name suggests. I am going to talk about a recent integration that we have made at in-house at our organization regarding executing the accessibility test in an automated fashion. So it essentially is about an automation framework which is designed in a way to integrate the functional tests alongside the accessibility tests and execute them together at one go. Now in the present era where imparting accessibility into a web application is not only seen as a social or a moral obligation, but it is also seen as a business opportunity because a lot of specially able people are now willing to access the web and consume the web with it. So it has become all the more important for us being testers to do those accessibility testing in a more formalized and organized manner. At QA in Kotec we do have a dedicated accessibility testing team, you know with specialized engineers and our research team have been closely working with them to find out the methodologies that they, you know, follow and of course the reports that they generate, the output of accessibility testing. So as to understand the requirements and then provide a solution that assists the accessibility testing to be, you know, to happen in a more efficient and less time consuming scenario. So the output of that effort is this automation framework that I am going to demonstrate today. So on this note let me move on to the agenda item. First of all I will go over the available approaches to accessibility testing. We will see a few tools which are already being used and the value that they are adding. The problems that these tools possess and of course offer are also, you know, under scrutiny. So I will go over those problems one by one and analyze their impact on the actual testing process. Then those problems will lead us to the solution that I am trying to make, the proposed framework. What I am going to do is I am going to give a working demonstration of the framework that we have built alongside the architectural details of the framework which will help all of us to understand, you know, the framework as a whole from end to end. Then we will move on to the advantages that the framework has and it has a lot of them. Moving on I will quickly put forward a case study that I have, you know, working with a lot of clients. We have used this framework for them. So there are some numbers that would assist, you know, my proof of concept. Eventually I will do a conclusion with some key points and takeaways.


Music. And this talk is a very good transition to that part. We're here with Thomas Fankhauser, who brought to us or is bringing to us his Ein-Ohm-Computer It's a self-experiment that will be performed live. We're excited for that. I hope you heard me, Thomas. Thank you for your presentation and your introduction. I'm really happy and proud to be able to show my computer-mind theory for the first time to a large audience. This is a black-and-white image. The question I am asking myself or I'm wondering about is, have computers already become conscious? And in what areas are they already developed farther than us humans? I will later read a piece about my thesis, but for creatives it's very important to sometimes revert texts and read them in and write them in a different order, for example from right to left. Just a quick note. BQ is another area of my research, because I think that mathematical problems and other predefined societal images are sometimes a bit weird. BQ stands for Bewusstseinskoeffizienz, which means consciousness coefficient. And that means being mindful in everyday life and being mindful of when and how you use computers and also being mindful of environmental protection and sustainability. Research is about determining which content we are shown when we enter the Internet and searching for things that we like. This might be a Nintendo game or a baking recipe for waffles. That is why I think, why am I seeing so many advertisement windows? And when I started publishing in good and maybe also difficult times, I tried to give an authentic picture of myself to the computer, so that I in return get what I merit, such as the best recipe. And following the motto of giving and being given, I'm really happy to be here and I've brought you one or two posters and I would like to continue and show you my website in which I wrote this. And you're welcome to join me in my experiment at thomasfankhauser.ch. You will find a button called Computer Mind Theory. I'm now going to read this text in German so I can afterwards start the stream. People believe that they control the computers. If I see people with their electronic devices, I notice that it might be the other way around. It seems as if the computer enslaves, is enslaving the people. Has the computer already developed a consciousness to counter this development? I present the computer mind with biological material. The idea behind this sound experiment is that human and natural noises are transformed into the computer and mixed. Feel free to just click around freely at random. Million, 880,000 days, 888 times.  Yes, and I love you too. Assess the interpreter. I love you, you, I love you. I love you too. The human beings have the feeling that the world is part of them. 888 million, 888 billion, 888 million, 888 thousand, 880... The human being is enslaved by the computer mind. Free yourself and go in nature. Redlight, red light, red light. I love you. I love you. I love you. You. I love you, I love you, I love you. 888 million, 888 billion, 888 million, 888 thousand, 888. Okay, fantastic experiment. Now, who of you, who are watching the stream actually took part in the clicking? Yeah, that was interesting. Thomas, would you like to, is there any message you would like to give to the audience? Yeah, sure. I believe that it's important that we try to express ourselves creatively and find that expression in whatever form and live that and realize that in everyday work, in the kitchen, or as I as a freelance artist, that we dedicate our lives to the idea that gives us back something and makes us happy. For me, that is art and music. Music by now is a part of that. And well, I haven't got the time to read all the books, but to read. It's not a given that children can read. When I travel through poorer countries, I see many street children who are happy if they just have a ball to play with. And yes, I do think still that this strive for success is actually a problem that the system is inoculated with. Three mobile phones, several cars. Just a pen and paper. You can move a lot. And I believe it's important that despite technological developments, we still value old crafts such as drawing, writing, and dedicate ourselves to those. And also without being paid that we strive for something that does something for the good of everyone. Well, I can't really say much more than that. Thank you very much. That was a very creative input. And I would like to thank...


And that didn't work out. As an undergraduate, I worked at a paper here in Boston doing sports writing. One of the things I was really looking to get out of school was skills that I could apply directly to a job that I was doing, and so much of a four-year undergraduate bachelor's degree is taking history classes and taking sociology classes and taking physics classes and taking things that I had just spent four years doing that kind of thing in high school. I actually was sort of forced to take a break, so my GPA got low enough that I ended up getting put on academic probation. To make ends meet, I ended up having to pick up a second job, working during the day, and so I took a job at a stringed instrument company. It was five days a week at the warehouse, three nights a week at the paper, and then all day Saturday at the paper. It became too much, sort of having both jobs, and that's really when I started to explore going back to school or at least completing my undergraduate education. The on-campus experience, the traditional undergraduate experience wasn't going to work for me. And I ended up finding a really great online program, and so I spent 18 months working during the day and taking online classes in the evening and on the weekends to finish out my bachelor's degree. Finishing my degree online was something that really, really worked for me, and I wanted to help build a company that was going to be bringing that same level of online education out to the whole world. There's a lot of people out there that are not well-served by traditional educational institutions that have a lot of trouble either in the classroom or on campus, people who are working, people who maybe have disabilities or they can't actually get to school, and so that was one of the things that really, really made me excited to work at edX. One of the things that makes me so excited about working on MicroBatchers is this idea of the small, bite-sized courses bundled together to give you those discreet and very clear, obviously applicable pieces of learning that you can take directly into your career, into your day-to-day, and start using everything that you're learning every day on the next day. My name is Ned. I'm a Marketing Project Manager at edX.
