Method:
1. Fold
the Cramel Rose Stripe paper in half. Fold this in half again, so
now you have a square 4" x 4". Fold back each side along
the spine creating your accordian.
2.
Cut tags 2.25" x 4.75" and decorate as indicated. I used
some standard shipping tags as well and just inked the edges. You
might also choose to include additional photos on your tags or more
journaling. Don't foget to use the back side of your tags.
3.
The accordian pocket edges can be created by trimming or folding
back the paper for each pocket. Decorate each pocket front as shown
or use your imagination and create something special for yourself.
Use the large rubber stamps, ink and paint to place your numbers
on the front of each pocket. You may also choose to decorate the
back side of your booklet. Do not sew or close your pockets until
after you have finished embellishing and inking each pocket. It
is much easier to tack brads, sew buttons, and embroider when you
can open up the sheet.
4.
Once you have finished decorating the pockets you can close the
seams between the pockets either by sewing, stitching or stapling.
5.
Insert your finished tags.
6.
You can punch a small hole on the first pocket, left side and again
on the last pocket, right side and tie ribbons through. Secure your
accordian tag shut by tying the ribbon together.
