Astuces de l'émission

• Always score at half an inch for hinges to keep the binding consistent and strong.
• Trim corners at an angle before folding pockets to reduce bulk and prevent the paper from cracking.
• You can use single-sided paper; just accept that the back will be white, or stick two pieces together back-to-back for a more finished look.
