Front of Father's Day card - finally uploaded. This is actually one I made last year (2005) but I'm just getting into the hang of uploading my digital pics. I first learned the "shirt" folding technique by a customer at my first workshop (now she's in my downline.) I'd had Hawaii on my mind quite a bit (dream of going) so I thought I'd try this and use some fun beads as a necklace.

What a fantastic card! You did the Hawaiian shirt perfect, colors subdued etc.! The beads certainly make a great kukui nut lei too! Would love directions if you're able to share!

Thank you for your comments! I did a quick search under the Gallery for "Origami Shirt Folding" and under 'Queen Elizabeth's" sample, she listed the following links for shirt folding instructions:
�Queen Elizabeth� found templates from Qbee. Here are the links:
Thanks also, 'Goodly Creations' for the name of the of lei I did. I've seen a number of people wear these and thought they are so beautiful! When I saw my beads, I thought they'd re-create it nicely.
Have fun folding!
