The Awe-inspiring Book, I Am Enough

Hey Artists! Today’s book review + craft was inspired by, “I Am Enough“, written by the multi-talented Grace Byers. I read I Am Enough with my daughter’s, and we were in awe of the rhythmic simplicity of such a strong message about accepting our differences. This is a book you can re-read to your daughters at different stages in life and empower them all over again! Click the video below to see Grace Byers read her book, I Am Enough, in the Netflix series Bookmarks.

What's Needed
Step 1

Gather your materials. Click on the green button above to print out the I am Enough papercraft sheets in the image below. I used colored cardstock for the base of the craft (pages 1 & 2 in the pdf).

Step 2

Color your pictures and then cut out all the pieces. View the slideshow below for examples.

Step 3

Take the two colored bases and fold them on the dotted lines. View the animation below.

Step 4

I've marked the location for the glue application on the sheets. Make sure you only apply glue to the marked sections, or your card will not operate properly.

Lay "Base A" and "Base B" vertically side by side. Then add glue to the marked corner in the top left. Adhere "Base C" horizontally on the top left of "Base A," making sure to line up the edges. Follow the animation below to continue this process for all the corners.

Step 5

Once the base is dry, follow the animation to fold and further crease the paper.

Step 6

Use glue to adhere the following elements to "Base A" and "Base B" of the craft: Sing, Learn, be Unique, Dream, the girl with headphones, and girl reading a book. Use the slideshow below as a guide.

Step 7

Open the flaps to move on to the next step. Follow the animation below.

Step 8

Use glue to adhere the following elements to "Base C" and "Base D": Fly, Be, Try, Win, the moon, and the girl on a swing. Use the slideshow below as a guide.

Step 9

Open the flaps to move on to the next step. Follow the animation below.

Step 10

Use glue to adhere the following elements: Skin, Hair, Eyes, Frame, and the different is beautiful images. Use the slideshow below as a guide.

Step 11
