For artistic.paws on instagram ^^ I havent laminated or cut it yet though. For those of you who have received badges or make badges, ive never made any before and would like some help ^^

. Before you laminate the badge, do you add another paper behind it so you cant see any bleeding or for deco?
. Should I cut it in a square badge shape or around the figure?
. How wide should I leave the margin when laminating so the lamination doesnt rip off ?
