Butterflies and flowers

What do you need:

• Thin square pieces of paper.
• Card 10x15 cm
• Glue.
• Art suplies.

This is a very easy to fold character. Follow the pictures alongside. Use colored paper which fits well what you will make.
First you fold the paper in half. Then you fold from the fold at 1/3 part part of the sheet again. You get the figure as you can see in Figure 3.
Now fold on the dotted line the two outer edges inwards now you have the shape of Figure 4.
This allows you to make nice cards. From this figure you can make butterflies and flowers.

As you can see here by the deposit of several characters together make a very nice scene.

Sign and paste it on a card and you can make very nice get-well and birthday cards.
You can draw extra things themselves but you can also print to the printer a background and then paste some flowers and butterflies.
This is especially useful if you have more same cards to.
A simple background you could use is shown below.



This is how the folds out with real leaves.
