Accordion Fold Card for Christmas

Cheryl · September 23, 2019 · 40 Comments

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:

#createwithcheryl #funfoldcard #accordianfoldcard #diyhandmadecard

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.

Thanks for stopping by today & don’t forget to tune into Facebook Live at 5 tomorrow!!  That’s 5pm Hawaii time!Be sure to use this month's Hostess Code: DF2GVU7G

    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.

    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.

    Hello Cheryl – You have been so busy emailing the directions for this card. I would just like to know the measurements and scoring places for the accordion piece. I think I can figure the rest. Thanks so much for a super card to make! My email is below.

    Hi Cheryl… I just found your accordion fold card tonight, and i really like it. I tried finding your promised YouTube video, but my search keeps bringing me back to your Pinterest posting. Could you please email instructions to me here in Ontario? Thank you.

    I was in Maui a few years ago… you are very fortunate to live there!!

    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”.
