How to cut Card Layers to give perfect borders

Sometimes we have started a hobby of crafting & making our own cards but no one really has showed us the basics of card making So we just blunder along wondering why our layers are not even all the way around

Check out my video below showing you exactly how to cut your layers starting from the base of your card
