Instead of using Matboard for the front and back covers, I used a piece of DSP adhered to a slightly larger piece of cardstock for strength. The rest is pretty much the same. The dimensions of my card are 105mm x 100mm (the size of the larger piece of cardstock for the front and back). The two pieces that I used for the accordian piece of my card are 285mm x 100mm (scored and folded at 95mm and 190mm) and 190mm x 100mm (scored and folded at 95mm). I'm sorry I don't have the measurements in inches, but 105mm is approximately 4.1", 100mm is approximately 3.9" and 95mm is approximately 3.7". Hope that helps.
This card took me 12 minutes to make (and most of that was spent cutting out the two flowers for my embellishments!!!!!)
Would love to know what you think.

The inside of your accordian card is just super. Love all the details you added: thank you tag, kind scallop circle and flower scallop circle and a plain piece for a written message. So very nice.
Thanks for sharing.

I like how you used the baroque swirl on the interior. I have--and love--that set. It looks great with so many different styles of stamps. And the scaollop punch really sits nicely on it.
