Jayne, thank you for such a lovely gift/craft fair idea. Ordered the notebooks and made a sample cover and it came out smaller than the notebook. Any idea why this happened? I followed your directions exactly!

Hi Patricia thank you for your lovely comments Xx
Are the notebooks you have the correct size (10.5cm x 10.5cm), also the paper needs to be burnished really well and the corners in particular. Is it very different? if so try adjusting your DSP size a little to see if this makes it a better fit. I hope this helps Xx
