Two pieces of black cardstock 8-1/2” x 6-1/2”
On the 6-1/2” side, line up and score at 1/2”, 5-1/2”, and 6”—do this for both cardstock pieces
Next turn to the 8-1/2” side score at 2”
Cut the notches and rectangles, then fold them as shown in the video. Next, apply adhesive as shown
For the front cover you’ll use 4-1/4” x 5-1/2” basic black cardstock and 2” x 5-1/2” strip of designer series paper and glue to the edge of the basic black piece
Decorate and apply to the front of the card folder
