This little mini accordion book is 3 1/4 x 2 1/4. It was put together rather quickly from scrap watercolor paper, 2 journaling cards, 6 stickers, two stamps, and some quickly typed labels (the quotes). Believe it or not these are really easy to put together in under 30 minutes. I think it's well worth the effort because they display so nicely on any surface and provide both front and back views stretched out.
I think this would be a perfect alternative gift for those moms out there who are allergic to real flowers.

This accordian book is beautiful! Very nice kit. Some of my fav designers (Ashley Cannon-Newell, Viola Mahr, Eva (MFT DT), Kristina Werner, Tim Holtz) use ready-made papers, stickers, embellishments, and even kits, to create their art. I often feel like I "can't" use something ready-made and I have to "make" everything from "scratch." SO GLAD to see this really nice project that you made from a kit, adding this and that. It encourages me to not "be afraid" to use ready-mades!
