Well, I didn't like the instructions I found for the fold, so I changed it up a bit and came up with this:
6-21-16 WCC Drape Fold (317x400).jpg
6-21-16 WCC Drape Fold (317x400).jpg (138.77 KiB) Viewed 1103 times

Basically, mine just covers the whole card front rather than a portion.

That's very pretty, Golda! I love the bigger sized curtain. Are you willing to share the dimensions of your curtain?

The paper was 5-1/4 x 11". I scored at 5", 5-1/4", 6", 6-1/4", 7", 7-1/4", 8", 8-1/4", 9", 9-1/4", 10", 10-1/4". After it was all scored, I stretched it out and cut from about 1-1/4" angled down to the bottom of my 5" score. (Just eyeballed it on my cutter.) I did put some paper glue under the folds on the front side. On the leftover (cut off piece), I used glue under the folds on both the front and back and it worked much better.
