An easy fold up Star Ornament and Celebrate with Tags bundle

We learned how to create this star ornament at a Stampin Up Convention years ago! Orginally made with 12 x 12 paper the star was wow and huge!  

Today I'm creating it to finish much smaller - about 4" from tip to tip, perfect for your tree.

I'll also share a few other easy projects - these will be part of our November Online series (Tuesdays 6-730pm online live and recorded).  We will use the October Paper Pumpkin for that series.  


First the star ornament

Cut a 4 x 4 square

Fold in half, fold in half again and fold “tip to tip”

Measure 3/4” from each edge (your cutting line)

Cut these 3/4” - can you see the 4 lines below? cut here. 




Fold into the triangles into the center (last photo)

Use a glue dot and bring the triangle edges together

Make 2 stars and then adhere these to stars together (I found glue dots easier than the liquid glue)

With a darning needle add some twine, ribbon or metallic thread and hang on your tree. 


The gift card holder (it's a slider) and the tag were made with this super bundle.  It's right at the back of the catalog and I think it's getting missed! The mittens are so cute.  It's in the online store (see the cart), search "celebrate with tags".
