To get four 5X7" mats out of one 12X12" piece of cardstock, use these directions:
In your paper trimmer, place paper at the 5" mark. Then cut up 7 inches. Take the paper out and turn it a quarter turn. Place paper at the 5" mark again and cut up 7 inches. This will give you your first mat. Repeat process again after turning the page a quarter turn. When finished you should have four 5X7 mats and a small square.
