Notecard Keeper Box Tutorial in Inches!

Hello,
Recently, here on the ole blog, I designed a whole bunch of note cards and this cute Note Card Keeper Box to keep them all in with a video tutorial too.
 I have since been asked a few times now if I could add the measurements in inches and I finally had a spare hour to do this and so that's what I'm here to share with you today :-) 
While I was checking the measurements I decided to make the box in a different design using Watercolour Wings {and remember it's 15% cheaper when purchased as  a bundle too!} teamed with the new In Colour Watermelon Wonder. I do love this colour - but it seems I'm a sucker for all the pinks SU! release!
OK, so I do recommend watching the video as you read these measurements as they make a lot more sense with the visual tutorial too.
Start long along the short side and sore at 1", 5" and cut at 6".
{If stamping do this now on both pieces of card}
on the long side of the largest remaining card piece score at 4+3/4", 5+3/4" cut at 10+1/2".
For the lid (use the waste from the box) Score along the long side at 3/8", 4+7/16", 5.5", 9+9/16" and 10+5/8"
Score right along the short edge at 1+1/16" to complete the scoring.
I stamped the box using Versamark and the butterflies with Watermelon ink onto white card.
OK, so I have remade this box a few times in inches to check and it seems OK but if you have a go please let me know if the instructions were OK and worked for you too?
Thanks as ever for visiting today and I hope you have enjoyed todays post?

New Video Tutorial for a Note Card Keeper Box to fit SU! notecards.

Hello!
So, life has been crazy this week here (again) with number 3 child going away this week with school for the first time (eek!), classes and a couple of commissions for a magazine to get finished so unfortunately this blog post has been pushed down the list a couple of times, sorry! I have however managed to make a new video but it was taking so long to upload last night (from about 8.30pm and still uploading at 11.30) that I left it and went to bed ;-)
I designed this little box for this weeks class to fit SU! notecards in.
**Edit to add: To see the 5 days of Note Cards we made to fit in this box, please CLICK HERE** 
This first one was made with Strawberry Slush card was stamped using Gorgeous Grunge and wrapped in thick twine...
  Unfortunately this In Colour is now sold out. I'm going to really miss this colour but I've made two alternative designs, shown in the video, which I will also post on here as soon as I get a chance to photograph them.
 This would make a great gift set 
 Or simply somewhere to keep your own note cards dust free before you use them!
OK, time for the video
And as promised here are the measurements for you:

A4 Short side: Score at 2.5cm, 12.5cm cut at 15cm. Keep excess for lid.
Long Side: Score at 12cm, 14.5cm cut at 26.5cm. Excess here is waste.
First piece of excess used to make lid. Long side: Score at 1cm, 11.3cm, 13.9cm, 24.2cm cut at 26.8, excess is waste.
Short side: Score at 2.7cm
DSP: 9.4cm wide x 11.3cm for the front of box and 2.8cm for the lid.

Please watch the video for full details on how to assemble :-)
Well, I hope you enjoyed that? Please do let me know!
