Awesome, Chris!
I applied for my badge and I'm having an adventure working on another one LOL! Origami is a little more involved than I thought it would be. My crane is taking a nose dive, but I think I'm starting to getting the hang of it.

I guess my crane is just tired LOL! Did you use origami paper? I'm using what I have on hand - which is scrapbook paper. I think it's too thick and that's a big part of my problem. My flowers are terrible looking!! One is just a wadded up mess because there is no pulling the petals up and over to open. Just not happening! My animals are OK though. My jumping frog jumps! I was so tickled when it leaped :) I'm curious how someone decided to start folding paper to make things. Especially such complicated folds (and I haven't even tried anything besides easy/beginner level projects). I think I know why scissors were invented though!!! |
