The Paper Company - Paper & Envelope Sizes - Your Guide to British Standard Formats

This new standard was based on the International Standards Organisation (ISO) sizes in use in most other countries. The A B C Series of SizesThis practical and economical system is based on a rectangle with an area of one square metre, referred to as AO (841 x 1189mm). In addition there are two other series of sizes included in the system - B and C. The B series of sizes are based on a basic sheet size of 1000 x 1414mm and these are used mainly for posters, wall charts and some maps.

The C series of sizes are based on a basic sheet size of 917 x 1297mm and is used for envelopes. All ‘A’ series paper sub-divisions denote the actual finished size of the sheet. Some work needs even larger sheet sizes to allow printed images to “bleed off” the trimmed size or for large “grip” allowances, or to allow quality control images to be printed in the trim margins.

Make a gift bow from a magazine page. In gift wrap emergencies when you've got the present but need some wrapping, here's an idea for turning a magazine page into a bow.

Make a gift bow from a magazine page

There may be better ways to stick this thing together, but I used what I had on hand: staples and adhesive glue dots. Double stick tape or brads should work, too. Cut a magazine page lengthwise into 9 strips, 3/4" wide. Leave 3 of the strips full length. Cut one inch off 3 of the strips. If you're using a magazine that's 10 1/2" tall, you'll end up with: 3 strips, 10 1/2" x 3/4" 3 strips, 9 1/2" x 3/4" 2 strips, 8 1/2" x 3/4" 1 strip, 3 1/2" x 3/4" Twist each strip to form a loop at both ends and staple it in the center. Layer the three longest pieces on top of each other, spacing them evenly and securing each with a glue dot.

Magic Slider Card

The Magic Slider card is very easy to make and yet will delight the recipient....especially if you make them for children. You will also be able to watch the card being made, if this is your prefered way of learning, so here is the Video Tutorial Step 1 I have used a 30 x 30 cms square card, and folded it in half. Then from each outer edge I have measured in 10cms, then folded and creased all the edges with a bone folder. With a craft knife I have cut away the two outside panels on each side. This will give you a "T" shape as shown. Step 2 From the lower part of the "T" trim very lightly around the outside edges and trim about 1cm off the bottom of the card.

In the top, centre panel cut out an aperture leaving a frame of 2cms. Your card should now look like the photo. Spellbinders Paper Arts - How-To - How-To Videos.
