Something Saturday - Hooray for Honeycomb Kit

If you missed the video here it

Here's the one she gave me to make:  Then In the video I make this one up using the beautiful Fresh as a Daisy Designer paper, with Garden Green as a mat underneath.  In the video I say that I'll be putting the measurements up on here, so here goes.... 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
