Give The Enjoyment Of A Napkin Fold Card

To create the card base start with a 12 x 12 piece of cardstock and score at 3” and 9” , rotate a half turn and score again at these measurements. Fold the paper at the score lines making sure to get a crisp fold.
Mark the center of the square that is in the middle of the paper. The center mark should be at 3”.
Fold the corners into the center mark making sure the sides in between the corners meet as closely as possible.
Now unfold the paper and you will see a triangle in the center of each flap. With the paper open, fold the point of the triangle up to the center mark and crease the fold well. Do this on all 4 sides.
Here's another view of the triangle.
Folding the point of the triangle upward, it will cause the corners to fold inward. The next thing will be to fold the corners down so they lay flat and form a square which will look like these pictures.
Another view of the folded corners.
The corners as you get them folded inward will look like this.
You will have to open the folds to the left and right of your last fold up a little to help get the last fold correct.
This is what it will look like as you fold it.
Your card should now look like this when you release it.
Fold each of the corner pieces in half down towards the edge of the paper like this.
Here is what you card should look like at this point.
Using 3 sheets of patterned paper cut: Two 2 ¾ “x 2 ¾” squares. (This is the Glitter Snowflake paper on the corners of this card.) Using 3 sheets of patterned paper cut the following: One 5 ½” x 5 ½” squares (This is the Glitter Snowflake patterned paper on this card.) One 3 ¾” x 3 ¾” square (This is the White Snow Glitter Cardstock on this card.) One 3 ¾” x 3 ¾” square (This is the Glitter Winter Snowflake patterned paper on this card.)
For the next few steps use this picture as a reference while you work.
Cut the 5 ½” squares in half and then half again to get 4 triangles. Adhere them, using the tape runner, around the center square of the card stock.
Cut the 3 ¾” square into 8 triangles and adhere to card. Repeat this step with another piece of patterned paper until you have 4 triangles.
Cut the 2 ¾” square into triangles until you 4 of them to adhere to the corners.
Cut a square of cardstock 5 ¾” x 5 ¾” to put in the center square.
Cut a strip of paper to 2 ¼” x 12”. Find the center of the strip of paper and make a small mark at the center point. Cut a 30”piece of ribbon and find the center of it. Using glue run a small line of glue across the middle of the paper. After finding the center on both the paper and the ribbon glue them together and work your way to the edges of the 1” x 12” strip. You will have some ribbon that hangs over at each end of the cardstock that will be used to tie the card closed.
Stamp the greeting on using your favorite stamp and blue ink.
