Got a lot of extra 12"x12" patterned paper laying around? I know I do! At a loss of what to do and wanting to make an EASY project to inspire you, I came across this specific layout inspired by Einatt Kessler. If you'd like to check out her blog and projects, simply click on her name. Since today is officially the end of Summer, I thought I would use paper I have left over from my Sunflower Summer projects.

MEASUREMENTS/INSTRUCTIONS
- 1 12" x 12" Patterned Paper of your Choice
- Cut 3 4" x 12" strips (pay attention to pattern of paper)
- Score 2 of the cuts at 4" and 8" then fold like an accordion
- Score the 3rd cut at 3 3/4", 3 7/8", 8 1/8" and 8 1/4" then fold inward at the lines.
- Attach the first two cuts together to form one long accordion. Pay attention if your patterned paper is directional.
- Fold the accordion closed, then apply glue to the back of the accordion and attach to the inside middle of fold in piece.
- Then be creative with how you want to decorate. In mine, I used a scrap piece of ribbon that just happened to add a little contrast and pop of color to close the mini album.
