I've been working on books to go into another multi-section (5) slipcase for our TeaBAG challenge. I wanted to do a pop-up carousel book for a while and wondered if you could tell a story using just 5 pages and 5 books. First is a photo of the last slipcase with some stamps on it, then construction of a sample (3" X 3") book.

| Steampunk stamps on pink |
 |
| Tool given to me by one of the boys, it came in very handy this week! |
 |
| Pieces cut and ready for gluing |
 |
| It took three attempts, but I finally got a sample I liked |
 |
| I just love the sculptural aspect |
 |
| Pop-ups to come |
 |
| Add a slipcover and you have a lovely little accordion book |
I recently bought "Playing with Pop-ups: The Art of Dimensional, Moving Paper Designs" by Helen Hiebert and will use ideas from the book.
Also wanted to list a couple of books that had instructions on slipcases.
Hand Bookbinding: A Manual of Instruction by Aldren A. Watson, page 127
Book Art Studio Handbook by Stacie Dolin and Amy Lapidow, page 94 Chapter 5 Enclosures
