Hi to all my Xyron Fans!!!
I am so excited to share with you the Swingline Classic Cut Light Guillotine Trimmer and Swingline Stapler that I used to create my "special" Midnight Masquerade Party Invitation. The Swingline Classic Cut Light Guillotine Trimmer is such a precise and easy to use trimmer; light weight and easy to trim with since it has large and easy to read measurements on the guillotine. My "special" Midnight Masquerade is filled with layer of borders, journal pieces and tags that were cut with precision using the Swingline Classic Cut Light Guillotine Trimmer.
Photo 1 - Use the Swingline Classic Cut Light Guillotine Trimmer to cut down the Kraft card stock to measure 12" x 9"
Photo 2 - Score at the 4" and 8" score lines using scoring board.
Photo 3 - Cut 6 pieces of pattern paper using the Swingline Classic Cut Light Guillotine Trimmer to measure 3 7/8" x 8 7/8".
Photo 4 - run cut pieces through the Creative Station using the 9" permanent adhesive.
Photo 5 - Apply paper to top of scored Kraft card stock.
Photo 6 - Mark 4" from the bottom of one side of the prepared Kraft card stock. Place on the Swingline Classic Cut Light Guillotine Trimmer and trim from the first fold line to the 4" mark.

Wrap ribbon around card; use Velcro enclose to hold ribbon in place on card.
Add matching ribbon to chipboard piece; add over Velcro ribbon with pop dots to hide Velcro enclosure.
Add small pocket to back of card over the ribbon. Fill with small matching tags in pocket for later use for the recipient of the invitation.
