Accordion Birthday Card

September 8, 2011 by Holly Gagnon 7 Comments

Thanks to the inspiration from Judy @ Crafty Jar, I wanted to add my twist on her Accordion Card design for my sister’s birthday card.   Instead of decorating with die-cuts, I wanted to add photos since my sister recently had a baby.

 

 

Accordion Birthday Card made with Cricut

I cut the scalloped squares and Happy Birthday from Gypsy Wanderings and attached them together with twine.  I added ribbons, embellishments and stamped sentiments to make my sister a unique card.
