INSTRUCTIONS:

Cut your Neutral Cardstock in the following measurements: 5¼" x 8" (1), 1 7/8" x 1 7/8" (4).Cut your Colored Cardstock in the following measurements: 2" x 2" (4), 5½" x 4¼" (1), 9" x 2" (1), ¾" x 4" (1). Stamp the largest piece of cardstock and also the four neutral-colored squares. Attach your stamped squares to the slightly larger colored cardstock squares with your adhesive. Score your 9 x 2 strip of colored cardstock. Starting at end of strip, score 2", 2¾", 3 ½", and 4 ¼" from the end. Attach the horizontal strip (the one which measures ¾" x 4") to front of card with eyelets. Note: it is very important that you do not use any adhesive in the middle of this piece! Next, attach the scored 9X2 scored strip to the horizontal strip you just attached to the card front. To do this, slide the longest section of the 9X2 scroed strip between the horizontal strip and the card, making sure to center it in the middle of your card. Line up the very edge of the scored end of the 9X2 scored strip with bottom of the horizontal strip and attach with adhesive. Attach your first stamped image to the bottom 2" x 2" space at the scored end of the 9X2 scored strip. Apply adhesive to the scored sections of the 9X2 scored strip only, and attach remaining stamped pieces. Once you've attached these pieces, you should be able to gently pull the bottom of the longest section of the 9X2 scored strip directly down and watch the stamped images flip one at a time and then slide behind the 9X2 scored strip. Attach eyelet and ribbon to the bottom of the 9X2 scored strip. To do this, simply mark where you want to place your eyelet with card in the closed position. Then pull the longest section of the 9X2 scored strip until it is fully extended. Punch a hole and place eyelet. Thread ribbon through eyelet and tie. Trim ends with scissors.

Fold in half vertically; crease and unfold. Turn square over, and slip one finger under each flap. Press your fingers – and the points of the fortune teller – together to form pockets. Place point side down, turn down flap of each pocket, and fill with desired candy.
