Fun photo birthday card

Yes, I can still manage a few crafts when Anna is napping, which is getting less and less each week, so for Keith's birthday, I wanted to make him a card instead of buying one. One of my former co-workers is a huge scrapbooker (is that even a word?!) and told me about this idea a year or so ago. Anyway, all it takes is a 2 pocket folder and I picked one up for $.19 at the grocery store, some scrapbook paper, glue, embellishments and pictures. First you open the folder and then fold up the bottom portion about 1/3 of the way up. Glue the sides together which creates 4 individual pockets that you can put additional photos or notes or whatever inside. Once you've glued the sides, fold each side in half to create the accordion look. After about an hour of work and I had this beauty.

This is the back of the card..love the picture of Anna. ;)

The photos you see that have green and blue ribbons on them are the ones that I had tucked into the pockets. I think I'll have to pat myself on the back for this one because it turned out so cute! I made Keith take it to his office so now he has a lot of photos of Anna to see in case he starts to miss her during the day.
