Card Concertina

Well hello!


I have been busy making projects for UStamp, and blogging has taken a back seat. So, before I give you the low down on the next UStamp round here is something I have made for myself & for show & tell for my stamping friend Genevra as this was on our project must do list. I just love the new dsp 'sweet stitches' from the new SU! Autumn/Winter mini catalogue - it's so cool. Any project you use it for will just look fab!

Here's some photos of my concertina card file box:



Now just to let you know, I got my instructions for this concertina card file from here. The trickiest bit for me was with the centre dividers to get them the correct size for fitting in the middle without bowing...so just be prepared for a bit of a fiddle with that bit :)

And now for UStamp....you MUST (that was a bit bossy....sorry!) join this round for Classes, Clubs & Camps because there are some great designers, particularly Karen Burniston who is the actual designer of some of the sizzix dies and her tutorials are worth the cost on their own...& there is so much more. Christine Blain won my free pass for this round for being so inspiring, so I hope she loves it!!
Thanks for stopping by (if anyone did!?!)

Caroline, this is gorgeous! Such patience ... don't know that I could get it looking so beautiful, and professionally-finished, with all those concertina folds! I love the pompom trim across the front. Such a cute little project.
