Teabag Fold as Embellishment

Golda and Terrie,
Beautiful designs on your folds. Love them both!

I'm so very sorry I've been MIA this week! It's crazy busy and my diabetes is giving me problems. Sugars over 300 for 3 days in a row causes lots of pain and lack of energy. Started praying on Thursday, as I was the leader of our home Bible study lesson that night and they prayed for me that night, too. Since then, I've gotten a little over 200 a couple of times, but not many and that is SOOOOOOOO much better! Sorry, you probably didn't want the details.

So, is anyone else going to play along with this? It really is pretty fun and simple.
This one is a bit more intricate, but really pretty. http://goldapete.wordpress.com/2012/02/25/star-flower-fold/
This one is fun and has a video, too. http://goldapete.wordpress.com/2012/01/14/square-crossed-star/

Last one. http://goldapete.wordpress.com/2011/04/10/tea-bag-folding-on-a-card/

Just a few more folds that are pretty. Like I said at the beginning, Google teabag folds and you'll have tons more examples, too.

Golda - I promise to get to this...I've been getting the house ready for company and the last thing I need to do is go to the grocery store today!

Golda, I am sorry that your diabetes is acting up. I am planning on doing this. Even found a great idea on Pinterest. Just need to find a bit of time. Have a day off of work so might find time to do it today! If not, will be over the Thanksgiving break. So... a little late for the challenge, but still something that I want to do.

This one doesn't have an end, so please post when you have the chance to try it.

I want to do one I saw somewhere. The folding created a Christmas tree. Anyone know where to find this?
Still looking!

Marilyn - is this what you are looking for? http://www.youtube.com/watch/?v=R5dIhBbPEec

Golda- I got it done! I got lost on the fold and Samantha looked at it, turned it over and fixed it! (It's all about teamwork in my house

Marilyn, guess what? My teabag fold is a .... Christmas Tree! I found several options on Pinterest.
Here are a few of the links with tutorials that I liked best.

And, here is my card. Need to decide what I'll do for a sentiment. But it's close to done!

Trudi, I love your poinsettia tea bag fold...very nice

I am trying to get back with the program and just saw these links. Thank you for posting, Trudi and Kathy. This is what I wanted to do. I will make it! I am glad these are open ended!
