An introductory session to crafting with paper, perfect for Valentine’s Day & Mothers’ Day. We are going to explore:

1) Card Making
Participants will be able to make 2 cards – an iris fold Valentine’s Card and a simple spring themed card, ideal for Mothers’ Day.
Iris folding is a simple (but addictive!) technique using strips of folded patterned & coloured papers to form intriguing patterns within a card aperture.

And

2) Gift box & bow
Participants will learn how to make a simple origami gift box and paper bow from decorative paper.
