Paper folding, that is!

There are many clever origami designs out there.
Today's challenge is to go find one...learn to fold it...and stick it on your card!
Google a pattern for a dress , an animal , a bow ...

Tip: Find design that tends to be a bit flat. Share a link to your directions too!

Oh, I love origami - not quite as much as DH, LOL, he has about ten books if not more. In fact, I used to use a lot on cards before I got into stamping so I'll hope to be along later with something for this. Thanks for a fun challenge.

Thanks for the challenge Dawn! It gave me the opportunity to try a modified version of a technique I saw on Nichole Heady's (PTI) blog. Here is my card:

This was great fun, Dawn! I like doing fun fold cards but had never tried origami before. Thanks for the links to the videos. Here is my first try at an origami card --

A while back I made a card with a German Folded Paper Star in the middle of a banner.

I am definitely origami challenged-the instructions are clear as mud sometimes, but I managed to make a couple of fish! Doodle Gelli Fish
