This is a mini accordian album I made for a friend. I assume she will put picures on the actual accordian and then journal on the pull out tabs. This paper is Basic Gray. Stamp is CTMH

I would love to give you directions. I've taken pictures step by step but not sure if they will show up on here but I'll try it.
Directions for mini accordion album
Supplies needed
12 X 12 paper cutter with scoring blade
Tab punch
2 inch circle punch
1 � Sheet card stock 12 by 9
3 � Sheets card stock 2 � by 3 � inches
8 � Sheets patterned paper cut 3 by 4 � inches
6 � Sheets patterned paper cut 2 � by 3 � inches
3 � Sheets patterned paper cut 3 by 1 inch
4 � Sheets patterned paper for tab punch
Glue
Step One
Take 12 by 9 sheet of paper and fold in half so it is now 4 � by 12. Then score every 3 inches so you have 4 panels. Next cover each panel with the patterned card stock on both outer sides. Then take a circle punch and punch out the 2nd through 4 panels so that the punch is lined up in the middle but only punching out � he circle.
Then you will open the paper so that the inside is facing up and the patterned paper you have already put on is facing down. Cover the inside top of the paper with the 3 sheets of patterned paper that is 3 by 1 in so that when closed it will show through the places you punched out.
Punch out 4 tabs with scrap patterned paper and place one tab on the top inside.
Place glue on the first panel where you didn�t punch or put any paper on and a thin line on each score line vertically and the right edge of the paper then close back up.
Now you are ready to apply the paper to the 3 pull out sheets and place the tabs on the top of each one.
Now you are ready to embellish and decorate how ever you wish.
