2) Cut your preferred shapes on the folded sides of the square leaving a space between each and every shape using the scissors .

3) Then fold the square to form a triangle and repeat step 2 .

4) Then , carefully open the folds , you would have developed a lovely design .

5) Glue the tissue paper to a coloured paper and stick them to a chart paper to have a thick background .
