1. Adhere the four envelopes one to the other by opening the envelope and gluing the flap of one envelope to the bottom of another (figure A). This process will create the accordion base of the card.2. Embellish the envelopes with the definition stickers. On the bottom envelope, spend a little more time to create a special accessory (figure B). 3. Cut the cards from the stationery in half and use them as photo mats. Adhere a photo to each card, alternating the colors. Create a firm foundation for the photo mat by cutting a larger rectangle from card stock. Adhere the matted photo to the card stock and add a punched circle as the tab (figure C). 4. Journal on the back of the photos so Mom will have personalized messages from the whole family. 5. Fold the accordion card and seal with a leather sticker and a title sticker (figure D). Note: If you are mailing this card, protect it in a bubble-lined envelope, or present this unique card to Mom on Mother's Day in person. See below for a close-up of the design of each envelope pocket.
