project: accordion card


Valentine's Day is almost here! Still don't have a card for your special someone? Don't worry - there's still time to make a cute, little accordion card!

I "taught" the girls in our ward how to make these at Enrichment last week. I say "taught" because a) I was pretty unorganized and b) I got so much inspiration from the girls that I ended up using their ideas (pictured above) in addition to some of my own ideas (pictured below)!

For directions on how to make an accordion card, go here. To tie, place a ribbon in between the back cover and back page so it can tie in the front or on the side. Round a few corners, ink a few edges, and you're done. Well, except for writing your mushy valentine message, that is. :)

these are really cute. And I love the new header/title picture.

Oh, and thank you for commenting on my blog. I take it as a huge compliment when you like my pictures because I think all your pictures are amazing. I often think when I am taking pictures, "How would Karla capture this shot?" :)
