Club Scrap digital kit and irisfolding

Today I have a totally different idea with the

Club Scrap digital Delft kit.

I choose a very Dutch technique called "irisfolding".

This technique started with folding insides of enveloppes.

When back in the days lots of real mail was send, 

lots of enveloppes had beautiful inside patterns.

But today email is the most used post.

So other papers are used, like wrapping paper or

origami papers. 

For my project I chose some background patterns from the

digital kit and printed those out on copy paper.

If you have never done irisfolding and are curious about

this technique, I have a tutorial here.

So here is card#1 a tulip. As this is not my own

template i cannot share it here, but if you want it,

just emal me.

The technique needs a template

and you cut out the shape in the panel of the card.

The template is behand the card panel and

all is taped down.

from the printed papers I have cut strips of 1 inch.

Folding the strips and taping them down

as the template tells you. I did it easy on

the stem and the leaves by covering this with

a plain green piece of paper.

When all is finished and you turn around the

paper, this is what you get.

Card #2: here I also printed a  background

piece from the Delft kit. The vase shape is cut out

and did in the irisfolding technique.

I added some flowers from my stash on top

of the vase.

On the close up you can see that I added a

 border(sticker) around the vase.

Card #3: a clog.

For this card I made the template myself

and you are welcome to use it:

When i finished doing the irisfolding,

I also used the real tulip stamp and colored 

it with a marker. The lines are drawn with the

diamond pen that came with the paper kit.

Tomorrow there is the 

Club scrap Artist Team Blog Hop

with many more digital ideas.

Thanks for looking

and have a creative day!
