Another Accordion-Fold Card


I'm so enjoying these little accordion-fold cards! It's great how they stand up so nicely on their own, and the size of the panels is very flexible. Today's is short (3") and long (10"), with panels 2.5" wide.

I made it using a small, three-stamp set from Hero Arts and a Kaleidacolor ink pad. The ribbon is knotted and can slip easily back onto the card if you flex the closed accordion into a bow shape (bow as in bow and arrow, not bow as in ribbon...sometimes English is weird).






Supplies
stamps: Hero Arts...various
ink: Kaleidacolor, Memento brown
paper: Papertrey Ink white
accessories: ribbon, Scor-Pal

    I enjoy your simplicity very much, thanks for your information along with your cards.

  4. Such a cute card, and Ilove how the plant goes to mostly green on the inside as it gets well (better that is, not stuck in a big hole in the ground) :)

  6. The multi colored images pop. And I love the sentiment stamped on each panel.

  7. When you are done you can always take a BOW. Bending gracefully, not a ribbon thing! Oh I have missed discussing English, like we used to years ago.
