Kimono 10

The Oriental style always seems to stay in fashion. So we thought we’d show you a simple Kimono card that can be decorated in as many different ways as you have stamps and ink pads!

The basic card will stay the same, but it can be made to look quite different by changing the colours you use and the stamp images. It is great fun to make as you can really ‘play’ with the paper you stamp up.

Key Pieces 1

Decorated jigsaw pieces are all very popular at the moment and here we have some scaled down pieces that have been embellished and added to a card.

These pieces come in a pack of twelve puzzles, with each puzzle consisting of sixteen pieces. As you can see, one pack will go a very long way!

A bit about Teabag Folding

teabag folding title

Teabag Folding originated in Holland when Tiny van der Plass started folding a fruit teabag envelope. The idea formed the start of teabag folding.

Nowadays printed teabag papers are more often used and there are many different folds that can be made and each one will result in a very different design. Once completed the ‘folded tiles’ can be attached to cards or scrapbook pages.

A bit about Iris Folding

iris folding 1

Originally from Holland, Iris Folding made use of the envelopes that have patterns on the inside. These envelopes were cut into small strips, which were then arranged in a pattern that looked like the iris of an eye or the lens of a camera.


This has now progressed into using patterned or coloured papers, although the envelope method can still be used. The idea is to use an image that has been cut out of either a piece of card or the front of a folded card. This image is then filled with folded strips of paper laid either clockwise or anti-clockwise. The pieces are taped in place and are worked from the outer edge of the cut out shape inwards until completed with a final solid piece to form the iris. For added impact, try using a metallic, holographic or other reflective paper as the iris.
