Choose a pattern that has a fall theme. Apple, Leaf, etc. What Is Iris Folding? Iris folding is a fun and easy paper folding technique that can be used to make greeting cards, on scrapbook pages, or designs can be framed and hung on a wall. The texture and depth that you feel when handling an iris folded greeting card or scrapbook page is the best part. The online photos can't possibly duplicate this. Iris folding is very versatile in that any type of easy to fold paper can be used. Left over Christmas wrapping paper works great! Traditional Iris Folding: The technique originated in Holland and it is called iris folding because the center of the design resembles the iris of a camera or eye. Traditionally, origami paper is used for the main design and holographic paper is used to fill in the center of the design.
