FOLDED PAGES BOOK CARD HOLDER

I was at a flea market the other day and saw this book that the pages had been folded and was holding Christmas cards.

 

Such a cute idea.

 

Today, I was looking to see if there were pictures and found folded pages book art.

 

Has anyone made this type of book art?

I recall once seeing a book turned into a Christmas tree shaped item.  The crafter just pulled the front & back covers back until they touched, then glued them together.  That splays the pages out.   She then glued on some tiny decorations.

I oversimplified, but the I couldn't reverse engineer the thing without buying it.     ;-)

I think when I go back to the flea market (if the book is still there) I'm going to buy it.

 

I looked at some books today but most just had white on the inside cover.

 

It will be fun checking out books at flea markets and garage sales.

 

People want to give books away.
