Hi all, as a silly romantic idea for my missus (yes Forza you sligh old dog) ive come up with a plan that basically involves making a "toy" (if thats the right term) out of paper. But being a bloke i aint gotta scooby how to make one and i dont know what they are called so i cant google it either. I will describe one and if some can tell me the name or even better get me a step by step to make one i would be V.happy!! ;D Here goes: They are made from a standard bit of A4 They are folded in a way, so you hold them in your hands and you can "open/close" it. They are made to reveal writing under the flaps at the end? Im sure someone must be able to remember making these as a kiddie?  *exhalts at the ready* |

I wouldn't have a clue but I think RJ is right and square is better than A4 size to start with.  You could make her a snow flake, they're easy ;D |
