Napkin Fold Card

I just love this card.  All paper, inks, and stamps are Close To My Heart.  I used Lagoon and Vanilla Cream card stock, Bliss level 2 paper pack, and Trellis stamp set.  The border punch is from Martha Stewart and the center die cut is Spellbinders.  Please feel free to  leave a comment. The tutorial for this card is at http://www.splitcoaststampers.com/resources/tutorials/napkinfoldcard/


Same card using Wings paper pack and Juniper card stock 

 I had to try a no frill version so I skipped all the paper punches  and die cuts for this one.  I used Lucky paper pack and Bingo alphabet stamp set.  Colors are Outdoor Denim, Garden Green, Chocolate, and some Sunset.

Origami Flower Picture Tutorial

This first tutorial is a fairly simple flower that can easily be used on cards and scrapbook pages.
Completed flower using CTMH Wings paper.

Cut/Punch 6 circles the same size. 
Cut 1 a little smaller out of scrap paper, this one will not show

Fold each circle in half.

Fold each side into the center as shown.


 Add adhesive to scrap circle to use as base of flower. 
 I used a mini Xyron here.

Place each of the 6 folded circles on the scrap circle.
Add brad, button, or other center embellishment to the center of the flower. 

This is the card I made using the flower.
Supplies used are Wings paper,  Dimensional element, Sweet leaf brad.  All Products are Close To My Heart except I used a Spellbinders die cut under the flower.
