Matchbooks?

What are the mini matchbooks made for? Something about making them into keychains or whatever. But I don't get how you make it. There's a kit downloadable over at digital freebies dot com made especially for the mini matchbooks, but never heard of them!

Years ago, Carol Duvall had an episode showing how to make these. They were matchbox size. I believe that they were accordian folded. Cute for gifts, to put in your purse or laminated (with plastic) to put on a keychain. I have also seen them done stapled like match books. You can make a template on a sheet using shapes back to back, accordian fold, cut around the shape and stick together. Tie with a ribbon.
Hint: Because the books are tiny, you could put the picture on one page and the journaling, etc on the facing page.

Here are some examples-some are not digiscrapping but will give you some ideas:

here are some ideas from this site:

Maybe somebody will come along with a template or other ideas.
