For the day after 'Thoughtless Thursday' :)

"There cannot be a sense of abundance or the experience of prosperity without appreciation. You cannot find beauty unless you appreciate beauty. You cannot find friendship unless you appreciate others. You cannot find love unless you appreciate loving and being loved. If you wish abundance, appreciate life."

Paper Cutting with Wallpaper

I have 3 wallpaper sample books and I'm trying to figure out different ways to use the paper.  This card is the first experiment.

The key to this effect is taking your pattern, folding the paper in half, wrong side to wrong side, and then gluing them together.  This way when you roll the paper there will be pattern showing.
