Post Waterfall inspired book card instructions

There are no pictures in my instructions as the file takes too long to upload. I was looking for a card that had a small book inside, and by pulling a tab, the pages would turn, and I could not find one, so I used a waterfall card type of paper engineering and modified it to fit what I wanted. This is my second attempt at instructions so please reply to me (or this thread) with helpful suggestions as to how I could convey the instructions more clearly. Nice feedback is always welcome. I hope you all enjoy this card and make one for yourself. I made several so far and my kids and the neighborhood kids are using them for their Christmas lists. I am sure you could add pages, but I found in my attemps that four pages worked perfectly. Happy Crafting.

I wanted to say that this card works well for orientating it either landscape or portrait. My kids used it both ways and my daughter created a little bookmark for hers, using ribbon and punched paper and it was so cute. They don't want me to post pics of their embellishments so I am honoring their wishes.

Thanks for the directions. What a great way to send the kids photos to Grandma! I plan to add it to a scrapbook page for some extra photo I want to add.

Thank you for the instructions and the youtube link...this project looks amazing! I haven't made a waterfall card, but I am fascinated with the mechanics! I love mechanic cards (cards that have moving parts lol). Thanks again! Sam

I made the waterfall card several years ago and it was a huge hit....but I love this new twist. I just got back from a vacation with my sister, and I think I will do this little book with pictures of the highlights of our trip in there. THank you so very much for posting the instructions and doing the video so I could see just how cool it is. I truly appreciate it.
