Teresa - Mint Twist Christmas Organiser

Hiya! Teresa here with a cute little Christmas organiser that's so easy to whip up, you could make several to give away to a group of friends.

It's essentially a little concertina book, with pockets added to hold lists and receipts. The one I made ends up being just slightly larger than a playing card, so it can fit easily inside a handbag. I used one sheet of Mint Twist jingle paper, and a couple of sheets of white A4 cardstock.

Here's the front of it, all tied up with a couple of different ribbons:

 
The little elf on the front is a StampIt image, and has been coloured with Copic markers to match the papers.
 
Here's a look at the inside:
 
 
Each panel of the concertina book is decorated with a panel from the Jingle paper. I used a contrasting pattern for the front of the pockets - it was all so easy using the one sheet of paper.
 
Here's how it looks with receipts and lists tucked into the pockets:
 
 
This would look awesome in any of the five Christmas ranges KaiserCraft have provided this year. Just look for the sheets with the 12 panels on them.
