Sorry everyone the paper strips are 1/2" or 1.3 cm wide, NOT 5cm like I said in the video :-)

I’m very glad you decided to come back ❤️. Life’s hurts are sometimes an ongoing, uphill struggle. Sending prayers. I want to thank you for this lovely tutorial. I’ve watched about a dozen regarding Iris folding but when I watched yours I really got excited about doing this. One biggie for me is that you showed us how to create a reusable, multi-purpose template. I also very much liked that you use glue and not tape. Soooo much better, in my opinion. I made the 6x6 template following your instructions and have created three cards today! One is heart shaped, one is oval and the other is shaped like a snow globe-all from the one template! I’m totally hooked! By the way, I discovered that thin gift wrap works great on this type of crafting. Thanks again!

So happy you've decided to make this video. I love your You Tubes and am so inspired by you. If you need a break, as we all do sometimes, you must take care of yourself first. I see others on You Tube taking periodic breaks. It a wise thing to do for your mental health. I actually think it helps the creative process. I have periods of time that I'm not creative and then I get an idea and have to make it. It's just the nature of creativity. You don't want to get burned out.

I feel your pain sweetie so take all the time you need because all of your loyal friends & followers will be here for you whenever you pop up. Will keep you in my prayers & you hang in there. BTW loooved the tutorial. I stopped watching & went to make templates 1x1, 1 1/2x1 1/2, 2x2, 3x3, 4x4, 5x5 & 6x6. Had a blast with your easy instructions & then finished the video.

It has been years since I did any iris folding, I forgot how fun it could be.
