Personalized Art Folder

Both my daughter and my nephew love to create artwork so I thought it'd be great for them to have their own art folder where they could store their beautiful artwork. I thought it'd be even better to decorate the folder's with things they loved to encourage their creativity. I folded a poster board sheet in half to create the base of the folder. I used a piece of another poster board sheet to cut out the handles and folded another piece "accordian-style" and glued them on the border of the sides so that the folder could open wide and close thin.

Then I used foam sheets to cut out shapes and create the folder's design. I find that a glue gun works best for me when attaching the foam pieces together and to the poster board, although I'm sure foam glue would have the same effect.
