The March Challenge starts at Dragons Lair today - More than two Folds!
I have another calendar page for you...
Each of my pages starts with a 12 by 17cm piece of pale green Bristol card.
I started with 6 pieces, hole punched and fastened together with rings at the top edge.
This is the third page I am showing you - you may remember January and February...
The March theme is 'More than Two folds' - this paper already has two folds on it - but I decided to do teabag folding to demonstrate more...and also team up (?) with the lovely
Floral Teaset.
I made two medallions - for each I started with 8 squares (2 inches by 2 inches)
cut from more of the paper.
These pictures were taken on my worktable so are not very bright...
Each square is folded with a middle fold and two diagonals.
The sides are pushed in to make a two triangles.
Using the top triangle the two points are folded in to make a square on top.
Then each piece is tucked in to make the medallion. I used a glue gun to hold them in place.
You can see a tutorial on You Tube of how to fold this medallian
here
I coloured the Floral Tea Set with Priomarkers, added the calendar page (with a little distressing) and trimmed one of the medallions to fit.
Finally, a little gold bling and ribbon...
Happy Crafting and see you at Dragons Lair!
