Caardvarks: Depth perception challenge

Caardvarks has yet another awesome challenge The challenge: Create a 3-D paper crafting project. The winner of that challenge will get an awesome goody box from Club Scrap who happens to have the best cardstock in the world!

I made a small portfolio for this challenge. Initially I wanted to use it for a post it note holder but then I folded some paper accordion style and put pictures of each of my kids in there sort of a brag book style.




This is the regular tri-fold but I added another strip of paper to hold everything in there. Sort of like a small box.



The following pictures are not exactly in order but I wanted to show you some of the steps (for those of you who are visual)


This is how I attached the ribbon for tying

Now the difficult question is - do you brag about the family or about the portfolio?! *LOL* Because this album is absolutely brag-worthy!!!
