    Thank you! I’m new to making mini books/albums and so appreciate your tutorials! This one on the hinges was very informative and helpful.

      Online is the best way and also to get the best price.
      I use an inperial one ( Inches) and the make I use is Scor-Pal and you can get it with the craft mat too however, there are others on the market you can use, Stampin-Up, Martha Stewart, Hougie to give you some other ideas. I know you can also get the mat to go on the Stampin-Up one.
      It worth shopping around for prices. Hope this helps? Dx
