Default How to you make this?

I have seen cards that have a beautiful patterned design on the front. I know it has something to do with cutting thin strips of paper and laying them in a square-like pattern alternating colors. When you are done I think you flip it over and there is a neat pattern that you can use on a card. Anyone have an idea of what I am talking about???

Default Iris Folding-Hot Air Balloon Tutorial

Don't know if you decided if Iris Folding was the technique, but I have a video tutorial on Iris Folding located on my blog:
http://www.stampingwithbluemooncreat.../iris-folding/
I love using SU's DSP for this technique.
