I got a sales pitch in the mail the other day for a monthly card club and it had this idea for a small folded frame that was attached to a larger card. I wanted to give it a try. It's a cute way to accent a greeting or a small image and it uses our wonderful DSP which is on special this month, so I thought I would share. Edited instructions: Start with a three inch square of double sided paper. Mark the center of the square. Fold each point into the center mark. This will create a smaller folded square with four triangle flaps touching at the center. Fold each point back out to the mid point of each triangle's folded side. This creates a small framed area at the center of the small square. Then fold the point one more time towards the center just to the edge of the small square frame.

As requested, here are the instructions in slightly more detailed form: Start with a three inch square of double sided paper. Mark the center of the square. Fold each point into the center mark. This will create a smaller folded square with four triangle flaps touching at the center. Fold each point back out to the mid point of each triangle's folded side. This creates a small framed area at the center of the small square. Then fold the point one more time towards the center just to the edge of the small square frame. HTH. - Kathy
