... has anyone tried to cut scrapbooking paper from the very edge of the mat/paper? I have this cute little paper pack which I'd like to use to create a mini album, it's double sided, and I'd hate to waste paper (scrapbooking stuff is hard to come by where I live, so I really treasure it). I only need simple rectangles, and of course I'm convinced the machine can make a lot cleaner cuts than I can, but I'd like to go all the way to the edge as I cut the rectangles. Any experiences or pointers (other websites, tutorials)?

ETA: the paper is cardstock, rather sturdy ...

Never mind, ladies, I tried it and it works just perfectly! It doesn't actually cut all the way from the edge but only from what is in the Silhouette Studio the red line around the page. I need to cut the tiny leftover gap, which is what I had hoped for so it wouldn't mess with the paper. It's all good, and I'm happy!
