OH, that's why.....

…. now I understand!

Ready for a shocker, Stampin' Up!'s paper may not always be exactly 8 1/2" x 11".  This picture shows the sliver of cardstock left when cutting both card bases exactly at 5 1/2".  For this very reason, I make sure that each of the card bases (or card layers) are exactly 5 1/2" wide.  The same holds true for the 11" measurement.

Forever Greenery Designer Series Paper.  The greens are gorgeous.  I will be offering a PDF with pictures and measurements for at least ten cards and it will be available for purchase or free with a $50 Stampin' Up! purchase using my current Hostess Code.  I will post more information in the coming days.

Below are sneak peeks for the first four.
