Thank you all so much for your wonderful comments. Maman and cfartyabeula, give iris folding a go! It's a bit daunting to start with but the effects are worth the heartache as you get used to it. Start with simple patterns and try to see a demonstration at a craft fair. I had a good teacher - did 3 OCN card craft courses while I was teaching part time and the 2 hrs a week were the best of my week - a bit of relaxing but productive ME time! Can't beat it! Jo, yes it IS for Sian Mc but I haven't given it yet so shhhhh...
