Accordion Fold
Today I want to show you a new Fun Fold Card! I’m calling it an Accordion Fold.
The fun is all on the inside! Open it up & you’ll see some beautiful Designer Series Paper with a few folds. You can stick whatever you want on the folds: pictures, sentiments, or just punches! Here’s what I’ve done on the inside:

Isn’t that fun?!! I LOVE the way Stampin’ Up! has so many products that coordinate! This paper is called Toile Tidings and the stamp set is Rustic Retreat from the Annual Catalog.
If you’d like to see how to make this yourself, tune in Tuesday to my Live at 5 Facebook Live where I’ll show you how to put this together! Better yet, make your own at class on September 30th at 10am. REGISTER HERE!
This type of card is perfect when you have a group signing a card!! Here’s a card my team, Island Style Stampers, sent to a dear stamping friend who’s going through some tough times. I’ll bet she had a big smile when she opened her card! Robin Messenheimer & I actually made this card together when she was visiting from the Big Island a couple of weeks ago.

Cheryl, I love this accordian fold card. I have tried to go to the tutorial but have had no luck. Can you please help me. I have tried myself to get the sizing right for the inner accordian but all I’ve managed is to waste a lot of paper😥. Thank you so much.
Glad you like it, Lorraine! Emailed it to you!
Cheryl as I do not do face book I am wondering if it is possible to get something that I can print out. I love the one done in pink with all the positive circled messages. Thanks! meter@urhere.net. Karen Van Meter.

Hi Cheryl,
Love your work and have subscribed to your YouTube channel. Was wondering if I may ask for the measurements and instructions for the accordion card. It would be greatly appreciated – thank you so much. tptruax@gmail.com
Loved your card from September 2019. Would it me possible to get a tutorial for it? It is the Accordian Fold Christmas card.
instructions, please! This is beautiful! I invented something similar a couple years ago but yours is much more perfect!
The accordion fold card is remarkable! I do not do facebook and would love to have printed instructions to make this card. It is 20 below zero here this morning and the
perfect time to work on more SU cards. Thank you so much for providing a creative
outlet for us “shut-ins”.

Dear Cheryl,
I guess I am coming in a little late in the game. I don’t do facebook but I was looking thru pininterest and saw this very unique card. I tried to find the directions and the measurements but could not. Then, I saw all of the requests for the directions and you were sending them so I wondered if I could join in the line To be honest, I don’t even know how to do this so I hope that this request gets to you. I will certainly try to look thru your blog to see all of the really neat other cards that you have shared. I love to send things that are unique and I have never seen this accordion card anywhere else. Very unique and I would love to duplicate it for people that I send cards to. Thanks so much for sharing this. You do a really nice job with your ideas !!!
