Check out this amazing trifold accordion card you can make in minutes! I like to call this a “storybook card” because it has three pages so you can tell a story.
It has three panels so you have three places to tell a story or give a message. This adorable Zoo Crew Designer Series Paper has so many images that can be fussy cut. Many of them can also be used with the dies that are included in the Zany Zoo Bundle. (The sentiments are from that bundle tool)
This accordion card folds up like this to fit into a regular size envelope.

Here is another example using circles for the accent pieces. This card uses the Countryside Inn Designer Series Paper along with the Circle Sayings Bundle.

How to Make an Easy Trifold Accordion Card
These are the supplies you will need.
Score the 12″ x 5-1/2″ piece of Designer Series Paper like this.
Fold
Use adhesive to connect the middle fold like this.
Add your three accent pieces (circles, rectangles, etc.) starting with the one on the front of the card. Be sure to attach it just to that front part. Attach the second accent to the middle flap directly under the first. Finish with the third accent on the last section. When the card is closed, all of the accents will line up so that you only see the top accent piece.
You can make a pattern like this, fold it up and keep it for a quick reference guide.
