I almost ran out of time with the last challenge... and I was super hungry so I decided to stop for a dinner break with hubby...
After dinner - I was refreshed and ready for this next challenge...
direct quote from SCS "The accordion doesn't often feature in a modern cabaret, a much maligned musical instrument but the source of a valuable lesson in my life of learning to hold my tongue. Years ago on the job, we took a new boss out to lunch. Somehow the topic of musical instruments came up and for some reason we (the employees) chose to make fun of the accordion . . . yes, you guessed it. Our new boss was female and her husband was an avid accordion player. Really! Not much you can do to recover from that. A more enjoyable lesson is to learn to play the accordion , or in this case to learn to make an accordion card. There are actually many different variations on the accordion card but for today's lesson we will focus on this versatile little beauty, the accordion fold booklet."
O....M....G.... I'd never done one of these before... luckily for me they had provided a link to a U-Tube video tutorial (which took FOREVER to load) and also provided some written instructions....
Turns out this impressive technique is really quite simple... So with the time I had to spare I used another new technique I learned at Regionals to make the chipboard flowers and fabric flower shiny....
Check it out!!
