Now I'm a little mad.... supercoolio is not the only one that's made this... I've found it on many other sites.. maybe this wasn't completely his/her/robot idea?

I don't think supercoolio ever claimed it was her/his idea.

Once I was done, I saw it even had a bumpy effect, like it is sticking out, round, full 3d.

Really nice!! thank you so much.

Thanks for posting this! I saw this on a blog once as a great way to use junk mail, but there were no instructions. I was so excited I made two! I think it would be really cool if you mentioned the recycling potential for this craft. I used old Christmas card covers and mine came out really pretty and festive (I did have to use 7 though... maybe because they were smaller or more stiff). Thanks again!

This is terrific! I'm going to try it on a smaller scale with foil paper - I think it will make terrific bows for the packages that can then be hung on the recepient's tree as an ornament.

Can't wait to have a go at this with the kids - excellent instructions.

Thanks for this great instructable. I planned to teach this to middle school kids with a different set of instructions but these are so much better. I know the kids will have great success. We can't do 'Christmas" stuff so snowflakes are my go-to product in the winter and since I teach 3-D art, this is perfect! Thanks again for the great photos and instructions!

someone said that they thought that they saw this on makes website and i replied that i haven't seen it, it's very popular though. Their comment then got removed so i just had mine. it was kind of confusing.
