Astuces de l'émission

• Don't worry if your hinge measurements aren't perfectly even—once you've added pages and embellishments, any slight variations won't be visible.
• If your card stock isn't large enough for the full cover, you can extend the front and back pages to cover the gaps, then decorate over them with pattern paper.
• You can incorporate envelope pockets and other embellishments into the gusset space created by the hinges.
