I am so excited to share this project with you today.  It was a labour of love to design  and make but it is so worth it!

There are measurements in both inches and cm’s……. I know I usually only work in inches, but my Stampin’ Up! trimmer is in cm’s so I had to work in cm’s…… that is why it was a labour of love !

The video is longer than normal because of the double measurements and because I wanted to share with you how to pattern match the designer series paper across the 2 cut pieces, so grab a cuppa and enjoy.

So here is the video, scroll down for pictures of the inside and the measurements.
