{paper} cream text-weight paper with red cover-weight covers, and origami adornment
{binding} accordion with pop-up and additional page glued in
The triefold was a remnant from another book (wrong size!). I re-purposed it by cutting out a pop-up. The structure didn't quite do what I wanted until I glued on the covers and added the floating page. The window on the back is a nice touch...
Book 40: origami box
{paper} scrapbooking paper
{binding} none - the magic of paper folding
So, this structure is a bit of a cheat, since it stretches the idea of a book to its limits. Still, I used paper and create something new from the original sheets. I tried to create a smaller box for the bottom, but it was still a hair large. I took of 1/8th inch from the original square, but it probably should have been a quarter inch.
In retrospect, I think this structure could yield an interesting book. A design folded into a box lid and bottom could be curious...
