Default Paper Folding Techniques

I'm looking for some clear directions on paper folding. Some type of folding to put on the front of my card. I saw directions for a Kaleidescope folding but my paper did not turn out at all like the directions.

If anyone has any good directions for doing this, that would be great!
I would like to practice and show it at my next workshop (for my seasoned stampers).

Thank you!

Smile Teabag folding

I'll try and upload a picture of a card using a folded "medallion". There are many sites online if you search for "teabag folding". But I can send you instructions as well. I can also email you with sites to print free "tiles" if you would like these as well. Betty (I'm new)

Default Free teabag tile sites

Here's a short list of websites that have free teabag tiles for downloading. I'm sure there's more out there.
http://members.fortunecity.com/zrosemarie1/index.html
http://groups.msn.com/CarolsCards/te...indexpage.msnw
http://members.fortunecity.co.uk/msvicr/

Sites with instructions on folding:
http://www.acrylik.co.uk/teabag/
http://www.geocities.com/teabagfolding/index.html

You can use many programs to print your own teabag papers (frominserting graphics into wp programs, to draw programs). If you're wondering about size, I usually use 150 mm. Start with larger sized (4 across a standard letter sheet) until you get used to folding then you can go smaller.
Hope this helps. I tried to attach instructions for my card, but just kept bombing out. I do have them saved, though, and can email them if that helps as well.

Betty
