- Tip : When working with scored cards, the bump on the score (or fold line) is always the inside. When ready to fold, place on clean flat surface with bumps facing up and gently fold the card over and align the corners. Whilst holding the corners together, gently flatten out the fold. For best results, make the fold sharp by rubbing gently with the back of a clean spoon.

They can of course also be used to hold Information cards, Maps etc. Any centre panels or inserts should be at least 3 to 4mm smaller than the dimensions shown to allow room for the folds.
