Edited to Add...But before I start... Free Shipping tomorrow... for orders £35+... 24 hours only... starting at 11pm tonight for us in the UK... 

And I have added the links to more detailed tutorials at the end for those of you that haven't made a Double Fan Fold card before... I used Carole's tutorial as my base for this size as it is the most similar... and there are some very useful photos in her post to make the steps clearer...
