So what is Iris Folding?

Iris folding is a bit like painting by numbers but using folded paper strips instead of paint!

"It's so easy - I learnt to do it when I was seven years old!"

Sharing the joy of pretty papers

There's a kind of playful mindfulness that happens when you pay attention to how colors and patterns stir your emotions. As you spend time on paper cutting and folding to make beautiful greeting cards and gifts, you experience an inner joy. And you can pass on that joy to others by giving away what you have lovingly made!

Meet the maker

Hey fellow crafter, I'm Bethan and I'm passionate about being creative and having a positive impact on others through craft. I aim to do this by teaching the art of iris folding and I hope the resources and ideas on this site inspire you to explore iris folding and enjoy creating with pretty papers.


Crafting love, B 🌸

Mini Rainbow Card Apertures A6 (Pack of 6) | White Card Blanks & Envelopes x6
One of my favourites

These cards are one of my favourite iris folding cards to make. They’re nice and easy so a great low-level activity for myself (I have an Energy Limiting Illness) and you can do so many colour schemes with these rainbow cards too.

I love the effect of the silhouette aperture, very striking. This was a more advanced pattern for me so I enjoyed the extra challenge. I definitely recommend buying this pack.
