Our AofF for May is anything using 1 piece of paper. I've done them in square shape where it opens and lays flat again. But this time I decided to glue some of the pages so the booklet opens like a normal book... I love the results.
I used value pack black cardstock which is medium light weight. Folded like a normal construction (fold in half (landscape mode) and each section folded in half again and repeated in (portrait mode.) getting my 16 little squares.
Cut the 1st and 3rd score lines from one edge to the 3rd score line. Repeated from the other edge and cut the middle score up to the 3rd score lines. Then start accordion folding from one edge to the end. You should have a nice little booklet.
But you don't have a NORMAL booklet... so start gluing to make them pages...
Draw a circle that's larger than your folded booklet and cut the corners away to give the illusion of a round booklet which will keep your spines safe.
I used geli prints, pink and blue cardstock using a floral punch and adhered them to each page alternating color etc. Then cut smaller flowers and Peel Off glitter centers.
Added text to the geli print flowers in a funky hand with a gold gel pen.
words: Blossom (on the cover) and Blooming (on the inside - 1 letter per page).
