Check out this papercrafting mini accordion book tutorial plus new printable collection to get you started. Keep that reminder of God’s love for you close to heart everyday.
I don’t know about you, but I need the reminder of God’s love in my life everyday. I simply do not know how people go throughout life each day without Him. To remember all the ways God cares for me, I thought it would be fun to create a mini accordion book with all the affirmations from God.
In this mini book, I am writing down the affirmations of God for my life and the scripture. It may be February and the “month of love” for some people, but we need to always focus on God’s love for us every month of the year. This little mini book will be a perfect way to read through and quote these scriptures to ourselves when we need it most.
Because I want to remember how much I’m loved, I created a brand new collection of printables in my Etsy shop to help me do just that. This is the next part of my “Paint Swatch Series” in my shop. Not only are they great for Valentines Day and cards but also to use all year long as we focus on God’s love for us. Find the whole “Loved” collection HERE. Below is a sneak of one of the designs.
These designs are also perfect for Bible journaling and making memory cards. I love how this entry turned out in my Illuminated Scripture Journal. I layered lots of pieces from the patterned papers, and I’m obsessed now.
Now for the accordion book. Check out the video below as I walk you through making your own little book too.
I used the eight journaling cards from my Etsy shop and used each one for a different affirmation and scripture. Below is the list of words and scriptures in case you want to study and focus on these too.
Loved: 1 John 3:1
Free: Galatians 5:1
Saved: Isaiah 35:4
Complete: Colossians 2:10
Child of God: Galatians 3:26
Successful: Psalms 20:4
Blessed: Jeremiah 17:7-8
Precious: Matthew 6:25-34
I just love how this little guy turned out and will help me to focus more on what God says is true about His child and not listen to the lies of the enemy. I pray you do the same too. And don’t forget to tag me or share with me your Bible journaling entries, mini books, or any other projects you make using these new “Loved” printables. God bless!

I just purchased your printable from your Etsy shop. I thought the accordion book would make a good valentine card for my husband. Did you say you used double sided tape under the washi to connect the pages?
Bethany says
Thank you so much for your support! It means the world to me. That sounds like a great idea. I only used washi. I didn’t use extra tape between the two layers of washi. Hope that helps!
