Pop-Up Accordion Card

Instructions: For this card you need a circle cutting system, like the Coluzzle. The body of the card (Apricot Appeal) is 5 1/4 x 8 1/4, scored at 4 1/8. There also is an accent layer( Pixie Pink) that is 5 1/2 x 4 1/4.

Start by using the cutting system to cut out three circles. You want these to be fairly large. For my example, I used 4" circles.
The three circles must all be the same size and you can vary the color like I did, or make all three the same.
Fold the circles in half. Use the paper cutter or paper snips to cut small tabs in the center of each circle. Fold the tabs the opposite direction from the center fold.
Create three half circles using the circle cutting system. These will go inside the card and attach to the small tabs you just created.
Attach the three large circles together using sticky strip.
Use glue dots to attach the small, stamped half circles to the tabs of each of the three sections.
Attach the entire accordion piece into the center of the card, using sticky strip.
  Here is the finished front of the card.
