Tea Bag Folding - Number 2

In a previous tip, I shared how you can cut your own tea bag folding paper out of small print paper you have on hand.  You can also print your own.  Paper Wishes sells a CD with tea-bag folding papers on it, and there are websites where you can download papers. However, you're not limited to something like that:
  • Crop any picture to a small square (usually 1 1/2 to 2 inches)
  • Copy it into a document eight times (or however many you need for your design)
  • Print & cut them out
  • You're ready to start folding!
Here's a picture of a card I just made with the focal done this way. The picture I cropped is from a Paper Wishes CD with tag art on it.  It also shows that matting the pieces can help them stand out.
