1
Print out 3 sizes of a 5 point star pattern; trim the stars from the cardstock.
Trace the stars onto red, silver and blue Rinea Foiled Papers. You will need 6 large, 8 medium and 10 small stars. Cut out the stars.
Note - I stacked 3 layers of paper together and traced/cut all at the same time for convenience.
OR
You can diecut the stars if possible.

Use a ruler and dull pencil to make the folding scores on each star. You will draw a line from each point to it's corresponding valley as shown.

To make the star 3D simply pinch the folds from the points to the center. I found it works best to work on 2 points at a time to help give the center the lift that is needed.
