Origami Christmas Tree

This origami Christmas tree is one of the projects we've been doing at some of the home workshops I've done during the holidays. Isn't it fun? It's a great way to use your designer series paper scraps and it's really easy to do. Anytime I hear the word "origami," I kind of cringe, but this origami fold is actually quite easy! The top photo uses the Beau Chateau Designer Series Paper and the Elegant Lines Embossing Folder; the bottom photo uses the Frostwood Lodge Designer Series Paper and the Snow Burst Embossing Folder. When we had our Annual Demonstrator Retreat in October, I did a quick demo of how to make this tree. I hope the video tutorial below will help explain how you do it! You just need four squares measuring 3 X 3, 2-1/2 X 2-1/2, 2 X 2, and 1-1/2 X 1-1/2. To order these great products, visit my 24/7 online store at http://www.penguinstamper.blogspot.com/ and click on "Shop Now." MERRY CHRISTMAS TO YOU!
