This very practical design is from Origami Note Cards by Florence Temko. It comes with step-by-step instructions for 15 handmade stationery projects along with 48 large sheets of double-sided origami paper. The colorful folding paper, suitable for a variety of occasions, is patterned on one side and has a coordinating solid color on the other. Here an 8" square folds into a 4 3/4 by 5 3/4" envelope, perfect for your handmade cards. No scissors or tape used, just a little glue. Tutorial below.
Origami Note Cards is available in both my Canadian and USA Amazon Stores and worldwide at tuttlepublishing.com. Tuttle has long been known for—everything from Asian literature and language learning to cooking, art, crafts and design. Check out their fabulous Fall 2011 catalog at Tuttle Publishing.
