At this month’s meeting of the Bridger Mountain Scribes, I taught the group a folded blizzard book structure … having learned it earlier that day from this YouTube tutorial by Paper Kawaii. She makes it all look so easy!
So that we could get down to folding right away, I brought pre-cut pages and covers, plus ribbon and brads (available in craft stores thanks to the popularity of scrapbooking).
It’s a fun structure that I’ve considered for other purposes because of its potential modularity: rather than making 3 accordion sections, each folded spine piece could hold a single sheet folded once, and these could be replaced as needed.
One of these books was folded from scrapbook paper stock, and the other from Arches Text Wove (painted for the spine, plain for the text accordions).
Later, I had a good time folding envelopes and other structures from Paper Kawaii’s other YouTube videos.
