Turn over paper and repeat the previous step. Remember to crease the sides.

Fold one side of the diamond into the middle. Do the same for the parallel side.

QuestionDo I have to use this kind of paper?Lavender_babylonCommunity AnswerNot really, but it might work better if you do. If you don't have any origami paper, you can usually just use printer paper cut into a square.
-
QuestionCan’t I use cardboard? And if it rips, can I still use it?SarcasmXCommunity AnswerNo, you cannot use cardboard because that will not fold. If it rips a bit, then it should be fine, but if it's larger than about 1/8 of the length of the paper or on any major creases, then you should use another piece of paper.

QuestionDo I need one sheet of paper?Community AnswerYes. The paper is green on one side and red on the other. You can also put a red paper and green paper back to back and use that as your paper.
