we're having over on the Die Cut Divas' Blog. 

I used the Crafter's Essentials Winter Die Set for my mini slimline card.

The standard size of a slimline card is typically 3.5" X 8.5" (8.89 X 21.59 cm).  The card base for a mini slimline card is typically 3" X 6".   These are approximate sizes and we won't be checking to see if your card meets the exact standard for either size.

Brushed Corduroy, Antiqued Bronze & Tarnished Brass 
Strathmore Watercolor Cardstock: Cold Press
