    Hello friends,
    Today, I have  Christmas card to share with you and the main attraction on the card is the origami wreath. My son taught me how to make this wreath in his class room last week for Special Person Day. 

     His teacher is awesome at creating beautiful origami projects and she loves to teach the kids to create projects. The crafty girl in me was immediately drawn to her origami projects and wanted to learn more:)

     I hope you enjoy and get inspired to look into Origami to make it part of your cards! Enjoy.
    Challenges:

    I embossed the Whisper White with the 
    "Woodgrain Textured Impressions Folder" item#127821


    Each Origami wreath was created with 8  pieces of paper which measure 4" X 2" I also wanted you to see both sides of this "Polka Dot Parade Designer Paper" item#126902. Let me know if you would like me to make a video on how to create this Origami wreath on this simple card:)
