I do NOT use the index card like she shows, but I do use the 1/4" and even 1/8" ruler...for more than just paper piecing! I found that you can flip the paper up next to the ruler edge and use your nail to crease the paper just fine without the card attached!

Thanks! I have paper pieced a few things but end up ripping out more than I sew. Maybe this can help me understand it a little better. My problem is always figuring out how to get the pieces going the right direction, they always end up backwards if they're at an angle.
