Everything Papercraft - Kaleidoscope Cards


Kaleidoscope cards are made using techniques that create a fabulous visual pattern similar to those you might see in a kaleidoscope. The goal is to create a repetitive pattern centred around a fixed point, generally with lots of different colours and designs, although a monochromatic palette would also be very effective.

Kaleidoscope cards can be created in many different ways, such as teabag folding, paper piecing, multiple embellishments or repetition of stamped images. Have a play with whatever items you have at your disposal. You’re really only limited by your imagination.


Help yourself to the two examples above.
They can be printed just like a standard digital image and used on the front of a card.
