TLC839 ~Diamond Fold with an Origami Twist~ {03/22/2021}

[snietje]

Hello dear Technique Lovers
Diamonds are a girl's best Friend, or not...
I don't like jewels very much, but I'm sure lots of you do like them.
Today we're going to make some fun diamond folds and I've made you a new one with a twist, I call it an origami fold, I'll add the template in the thumbnails and some pictures to help you.
I've made one sample with a simple one, and I've also glued 2 together gluing back to back which makes a real fun dimensional design.
If you really prefer to make the diamond fold you can find the tutorial here:
Diamond Fold card Tutorial

I just hope you try the simple or double origami fold
Here's our TLC839 Gallery

Note: For my next TLC in April you'll need some sratch paper, you can buy it or make it yourself by covering a paper with wax crayon coloring and covering it with a coat of black paint, you'll find a picture in the thumbnails

Just a FYI - I took one of my cards to the post office today to see if it would need extra postage and she said it would cost an additional 20 cents to mail since it is considered "Non-Machinable" to mail. So these cards each cost 75 cents to mail.

it depends on your paper weight I think, in France we can send till 20 gr for 1€50 when we go over the 20gr we need 2 stamps till 100gr so 3€

You've made the diamond folds, if you make the one I've added in the thumbnails they are easier to send

This was FUN! Going to a young brother/sister pair who were recently in a bad car accident and need some cheer:
