Because this layout is tailored, it makes a great Father’s Day card.

Place paper in paper trimmer at a diagonal in the cutting groove so that it cuts from the 1″ mark to the 1 5/8″ mark. Repeat for the other side.

Place paper in paper trimmer at a diagonal in the cutting groove so that it cuts from the 1.75″ mark to the 1 5/8″ mark. Repeat for other side.
- Adhere the black cardstock with the point behind the vanilla with the point so edges are lined up side to side and enough black is showing.
