Origami Shadow Box Fold Card Tutorial


Hi, I hope you are all well. I was looking for an unusual card to do for my turn at card class.  I came across this card.  Its another very simple and easy to make card, but i think it looks very effective.



1        Cut the paper to the following sizes:

Plain Lilac Paper – 5 ½” x 5 ½”         

Single Side Spotty Paper – 5 ¼” x 5 ¼ “

Single sided Flower Pattern – 5” x 5”

Double sided Flower Paper – 5 ¼” x 5 ¼”

2         Mat and layer the papers, 1st Plain, 2nd Spotty and 3rd Floral single sided.

3         Using the double-sided piece – (floral side up), mark the centre of the paper.

4         Fold the corner points to touch the centre point, so there should only be the spotty paper seen. 

5         Once all the corners have been folded in, fold back each point to the edge of the outer fold.

6         Adhere the sentiment.

7         Adhere the frame onto the card

8         Colour and decoupage the flower and adhere on to the frame.

 

Hope you like the card

After the outstanding results I received with the DIY CHALK PAINT , if you read my sideboard , rocking chair or toy chest posts, you will have seen the amazing results that the chalk paint made. So this time  i thought i would test out a milk paint recipe What you need: 4 parts milk powder 1 part bicarbonate of soda 1 part pigment 6 parts cold water Patience  The method is pretty simply. All you need to do is mix the milk, bicarbonate of soda and pigment powders together then add the water and stir well. Leave the paint to sit for 1 hour then stir again and paint. (I know, i know you probably will want to get painting you project, but if you can wait – you will get better outcomes - try watching an episode of  Once Upon a Time... oh lord, my sister and i are addicted) The milk paint dries quickly so once you’ve started using it and be careful not go back over areas, as you can wipe the paint back off. Even though it is touch dry in about 15 min...
