My card features some fancy folds, that just take a minute and add some really fun dimension to the card.
Cut paper into squares in sizes indicated in the photo above.
This diagram indicates the first three folds you will make.
and crease well.
With the red side facing you, push the vertical fold that you just made to the inside so that it meets itself, and flatten into a triangle as indicated in the photo above.
Next, bring the two outside corners of the top triangle together and crease, to mark the center line.
Fold down each side of the triangle, lining up on the center fold line as indicated in the photo above.
This is how your completed piece should look. Repeat with the other three squares, then starting at the bottom, nest each piece in the smaller triangle that will placed above it. That wasn't so hard, was it?
