Cut base card using Whisper White Thick Cardstock.
10" x 7".
Place base card on your Trimmer shortest (7") side along the top.
Move left hand side of card to 4 3/4" mark and then take blade down to the 1" mark and cut down to 8 1/2" mark. Move card along to 2 1/4" mark, start at 1" and cut down to 8 1/2" mark.
Place card on your Simply Scored Board widest side at the top, but with the 1" starting point on the left hand side of the board. Score BETWEEN the cuts @ 1", 2", 3 1/2"
At the 5" mark score straight through the whole card (this will be the centre fold line)
Score again BETWEEN the cuts @ 7 1/2".
Now do the folds: Starting at the 1" scored line do a mountain fold. At 2" do a valley fold. At 3 1/2" do a mountain fold. At 5" fold the two outside parts in a mountain fold and the inside 5" is a valley fold. 7 1/2" is a mountain fold.
