just too cute! although this has made me homesick for the bluebonnets! I'm a Texan transplanted in northeast Ohio. My family is in San Antonio, Austin, and Dallas. All of you who post your photos of Texas events really make me feel that I'm not so far away! Thank you!

Jenn...that is gorgeous. What a great idea. I wiped out like 8 pages for a 6x6 for my MIL. Nothing stamped...except for the first page just saying our family. Then pictures of everyone in it. She really liked it. One the last page I wrote on .....more to come. :)

This ended up going to great-grandmother in-law. Forgot to make her a card in all the hullabaloo making Mike's mom's book! She enjoyed having it!

I want to CASE this so badly! Can you please tell me if the accordian part is all one piece? I've never made anything w/matboard ever, clueless. It looks so perfect!

Hi, Kim - the accordian part on this one was just one piece of 12 x 12. The inside cardstock was just cut down to 5 1/2 tall x 12, and then I scored at 3 to make the zigzaggy part. It's really easy to modify it to be any size, just by adding more cs to the length. Just cut the covers to fit once you have the inside done. That's how I did it, anyway! Hope this makes sense.
