Cut (2) pieces at 3.50" x 3.50" and score on two sides at .50". To get the slanted edge, cut the pocket at an angle. I measured 1" from the top and bottom, made a mark on each end and cut it.

Simple Stories Simple Vintage Botanicals Measurements:
Chipboard - (2) 6.25" x 7.50" and (1) 2.50" x 7.50"
Binding: Cut (1) piece at 6 7/8" x 12" and score on the 12" side at 1.50", 2.50", 3.5", 4", 5", 6", 6.50", 7.50", 8.50", 9", 10", 11". Once you put this together, you will have only 1" overhang on one side. I like to have 1.50" overhang so I cut an extra piece at 6 7/8" x 1.50" and glue it right beside the last score line, being careful not to go over it.
Corner Pocket for front and back covers - Cut (1) piece at 7'" x 7" and score on all four side at .50". Cut in half diagonally.
