I tried a few of the templates form [https://darksidecreations.blogspot.com/search?q=clam] I ended up using there 1st template. I liked the over all shape better and found it easier to line up.

One trick to make things easier is align the template with the grain of the cardboard. This will make the bending and folding a lot easier. I cut one test at an angle, which lead me to fighting it to get it to look good.

Another trick, is to cut one section out, use it as a template to cut out the 2nd for the other 1/2 of the clam. Then temporary tape the 2 together to cut out the horizontal lines.
