The Perfect Match


On first glance, this is nothing more than a pretty book of matches. Once opened, the accordian-fold coupons come bursting out. This miniature project has endless possibilities. You can use the panels to showcase pictures, poems or just sappy sayings to your loved one. The matchbook was constructed from medium-weight scrapbooking pages. Score the folds lightly with a craft knife, then staple the front of the bottom panel close to the fold. The "coupons" were designed in Illustrator then printed on my home computer. Sometimes the best gifts come in the smallest packages.
