Step 1
Take white card paper and fold it into two.
Step 2
Take a piece of twine/ thread and paint it in any color you like. You can also use more than one color as done below. Make sure that the paint does not dry completely.
Step 3
Place the wet thread/ twine between the folded card in any design you like. Leave one end of the thread coming out of the folded paper.
Step 4
Fold the paper on it, put a book or weight on the paper to keep the 2 papers close together and pull the loose end of the thread. When you completely pull the thread out, take off the book, and open the folded paper. You will see a design like this.

Cut off one half of the paper and glue it on a different colored folded card paper to make a greeting card.
