Mark 2″ down from the top and 2″ up from the bottom on the right-hand side of the DSP. Mark 1¼ down from the to and 1¼ up from the bottom on the left-hand side of the DSP. Cut the DSP by going from the top right 2″ mark up to the 1¼ mark from the top on the left-hand side. Then cut from the 2″ mark up from the bottom down to the 1¼” mark on the left-hand side.

If you want a little separation between your DSP pieces and you want an even border around the DSP, trim 1/8″ off of the 4″ width of the layer. Add a die cut or stamped image and sentiment. Finish your card with a sentiment, sparkle, and maybe ribbon.
