Take your A5 base piece of card, fold in 1/2 at 10.5cm, then fold the front in 1/2 again at 5.25cm (or just fold manually and use your bone scorer to flatten it) this will give you 3 sections, the front 2 are the same size. On the back: Green layer: 3 3/4" x 5 1/2" Designer Paper:  3 1/2" x 5 1/4" The front 2 flaps (so you'l...
