Tea bag folding

Tuesday, February 3rd, 2009

I made this card a long time ago but I have never posted it on my blog because I could never get a good photo of it but it is always a popular card in my sample box and many people ask questions about it. I was asked to do teabag folding for a technique class… It sent chills down my spine when I was asked… I have never been a fan of teabag folding but I tried to keep it elegant…. what is more elegant then clean black and white.

The tiles are stamped images from “mostly flowers” and I punched out each tile with 32mm Square punch. Each diamond has 4 tiles which I have folded in this way:

I suggest giving teabag folding ago it is a great technique which I now really like, I would love to see what you create if you give it ago.

Thanks for stopping by.
