Daily Special - Anything But Cards - Tutorial Accordion File/Crop File

Click Here for the Tutorial

As promised, I did a tutorial on this accordion file. It's really simple to create. I decorated this particular one more than the ones I created last night shown in my previous post.

It actually fine with just the scrapbook paper and decorating it further is actually optional. If you adjust the size but stick with the basic concept, you can also use any size envelope and create different size accordion files.

It's really simple to create and I really had fun making them. I added tabs to the pockets on this accordion file. See the picture below.

I used "Island Blossoms" as the stamp set to create the design and DCWV scrapbook paper. If you don't have larger sized chipboards, you may use cardboard, posterboard, or even cut up a cereal box. All you need is two pieces of sturdy material for the front and back of the accordion file.

I'm planning to use the accordion file to store pre-stamped images. I'll label the front with the stamp set name and whenever I need to pull an image or sentiment, I'll have them readily available.

Try out the tutorial and tell me what you think. Was it easy to create or do you know of another accordion filel that you found easier to create? Just curious. I thought this was an easy project mainly because the pockets were already created using the envelopes and all there was needed to be done is to assemble the pockets together.

Let me know if you liked this project and if you did attempt to make it, was my tutorial easy to follow. Your opinion counts! It really does! Hope y'all have a great day. . .I need to bring my dogs to the vet and pick up my kids from school. If I have the time today, I'll do another project!

Until later. . .
