2. Lay the paper lengthwise on a flat surface.
3. From the left side to the right side, measure in 4 inches and draw a thin, light vertical line from the top of the sheet to the bottom.
4. Measure in 7 more inches from the line you just made, or 11 inches from the left edge, and draw another vertical line from the top of the sheet to the bottom of the sheet.
5. Measure in 2 more inches from the line you just made, or 13 inches from the left edge, and draw another vertical line from the top of the sheet to the bottom of the sheet.
6. Measure in 7 more inches from the line you just made, or 20 inches from the left edge, and draw another vertical line from the top of the sheet to the bottom of the sheet. This will leave a four-inch section on the right edge.
7. Fold from left to right along each of the two lines on the left side.
