Make an Origami Card: Cute Dress Design

On this page I'll show you how to make this cute origami card with an origami evening dress. It's really quick and easy to make.

I'll also share a couple of other paper dress designs that you can use for making greeting cards, plus other origami folds like hearts, Christmas trees, and stars, which you can also use to make homemade cards.

This origami dress card is great for your girlfriends, sister, or Mom. It's a really versatile design - the way I've made it in this photo is really simple, but you can also embellish the card with borders, jewels or sequins (see further down the page for more examples.)

Traditional Origami Dress

I'm not sure, but I think this is a more traditional origami dress. It's made from a square piece of paper without any cuts.
