She's Craftyyyyyy...
Sorry if it's a little fuzzy. This is my first attempt at Iris folding. Um, I tried! LOL! I really should have used a solid on the bottom fin, or the same as the top fin. I was going for a compassy feel. I'm going to make a moon and another dolphin tonight, I think. It's so stinkin' hot and humid outside where we are doing it, I might just grab it to do up in the a/c. But Auntie KK and SS, get ready to try it when we get together for scrap booking!!! VERY easy... Pretty enough to frame, to make cards for someone who'd appreciate the effort and stuff like book marks, etc... I'm thinking about doing a tractor and choo-choo for the O-man's room. Good enough to frame! This is all pretty origami (and other types) paper, card stock and tape. How simple is that? Look out AC Moore! Here we come! I am actually excited about this craft. It is easy, no real special tools required and all you do is fold your strips of paper, follow a pattern and tape the paper. There are free patterns on the web. Well, a bit more to it than that, but those are the basics. A mini paper cutter and a nice sharp exacto tool are good too.

Um. Exacto knife? Pattern following. Oh dear; I think you may be a little optimistic... YOURS looks great though. :)
