A Greeting Card with a Woven Paper Design

The front of the folded greeting card is decorated with a woven design made from paper strips and a border made from Masking Tape. Both are Vivi Gade Designs from the Paris series.

1

Cut ten vertical lines on the front of the card, each 13.5cm long. Cut the two outer lines first with a margin of 1cm to the edges of the card. In between each vertical line, the distance should be approx. 1.15cm. Use a cutting mat!

2

Cut the paper weaving strips so the length of the strips is the same as the width of the front of the card. Make a heart and weave horizontally in and out through the paper slits. The paper strips which appear in almost full length, should be fixed roughly in the middle with an E-Z Runner.
