• Mount light blue floral patterned paper to a card blank.Use a home computer to print “Happy Birthday” on to spare patterned paper and mount to the card with foam pads.
• Cut another square and mount to the card. Then cut four 5cm squares from light blue origami paper and four squares 4cm each from the patterned paper.
• Take one square fold the square of paper edge-to-edge with the pattern innermost. Open out and fold the square corner to corner pattern outermost. The square will then form a hat shape.
• Do this for all squares, then interlock alternating between large and small. Add a brad and glue to the card.
• Take blue patterned paper and cut eight 2.5cm squares and eight 4cm squares. Take one square and fold over corner to corner pattern outermost, lightly crease to give a centre line. Open out and then fold each side to the centre line just made. Then take the top of this section just folded, and fold back over to give a small “collar” type effect. Repeat with another square but fold with the pattern innermost. Do this with all the paper squares.
• Cover a blank white card with light origami blue paper and attach two strips of blue patterned paper vertically and horizontally. Now glue the larger folded pieces to the card to form a circle with points inwards but not touching at the centre.
• Glue the smaller pieces on top of the other, as shown, this time with the points touching at the centre. Add a brad to the centre.
