For some reason, I was really taken with Ann Martin's
blog posting on the new Klutz book, Fashion Origami. Although the patterned papers didn't really match my style, I could see a lot of possibilities with these origami designs. When I didn't win the book, I literally ran to my local (online) bookstore and ordered my own copy.
I had white origami paper, and immediately thought the party dress would make a fabulous wedding dress.
These cards are the result! Hope you enjoy the inspiration to use these great patterns in a different way.
Supply list:
- Papers from various Club Scrap kits (Asian Artisan, Textiles and Notions, Body and Soul)
- Swirl stamp from Club Scrap - Be Still (no longer available)
- Queen Anne's Lace stamp from Club Scrap - Natural Resources (no longer available)

That is one amazing idea; your cards look gorgeous and really unique!
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness, these cards are absolutely darling! I guess, I should run out and buy that book too :)
ReplyDeleteOh how beautiful! I love the subtle texture of the white paper and your layouts are really elegant. Am so glad the post inspired you!
ReplyDeleteThey are gorgeous. Love them. What a lovely thing to receive with a wedding gift.
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping my blog and for telling me about the craft podcasts - I definitely need to check those out!
ReplyDeleteAnd these cards are lovely - I especially like the folds in the paper for the dresses :)
I really like the look of these cards. Who ever receives these will love it. I've made a couple of origami cards, but none turned out nearly as well as these did. Thanks for stopping by my blog as well.
ReplyDeleteAs I have seen these in person - I know how beautiful they are! I would like to point out that those flowers did not come from your stash and that I (one of your local friends) has finally looked at your blog :).
