Pantographs and pantograph border

[SusanCapri]

This seems like a silly question, but here goes.  I have a pantograph pattern that also has two different sized borders, all printed on the same long piece of paper.  The whole thing is too big to place under the plastic on my table.  There are lines in between the three pantographs.  Am I supposed to cut the patterns apart on the lines?

yes, you do cut away the patterns that you are not wanting to use...in this case, the borders.  Be careful cutting making sure you stay right on the heavy black line between patterns.

Have you thought of folding under the sections you don't need? If the folded-under designs shadow through and are confusing, place sheets of paper in the fold to mask them. That way the whole set of designs will stay together. Just a thought.
