Materials
- 4″ x 11″ cardstock
- Christmas-themed patterned papers
- 6″ ribbon
- a Christmas sentiment or image cut out
- double-sided tape
- punch
Step 2: Cut strips out of your Christmas-themed papers in dimensions of 0.5″ x 11″, 1″ x 11″, 1.5″ x 11″ and 2″ x 11″. A bit confused? I would be too. 
So just refer to the photo below.
Step 3: Let’s start folding to form our accordion Christmas tree! I’m not really a big fan of scoring so I cheated a bit. haha Simply fold your strip into half and repeat the process three more times until you’re left with just around half an inch in width. No, we’re not doing the accordion fold yet. We’re only setting the “guides” so we’ll know where to fold.
Step 4: Once the “guides” are set in place, unfold and spread the strip out.
Step 5: Now for the fun stuff! Let’s do the accordion fold! Simply follow the “guides” you’ve set in the last 2 steps.

Step 6: Repeat Steps 2 through 5 with the rest of your paper strips.

Step 9: Ta-da!! Lovely Christmas tree right?
Step 10: Since your accordion Christmas tree won’t keep your card closed, we need a ribbon to do the job. Punch two holes on the edge of your card.
Step 11: Insert your ribbon and make a nice, pretty bow to keep this easy to make Christmas card closed.
