Paper can become almost anything with the right tools and a bit of imagination. In this class, artist, author, and paper lover Courtney Cerruti shows you how to transform a simple square of paper into a classic three-dimensional paper toy from childhood. Often called a fortune teller, chatterbox, or cootie catcher, this playful paper game folds flat so it can be tucked into a pocket, lunchbox, or purse—ready to spring to life at a moment’s notice. Courtney teaches you how to fold a fortune teller at any size, then shares some of her favorite ways to decorate and personalize it. As fun to make as it is to play with, this timeless paper toy invites creativity and joy for makers of all ages.

That was fun. I use to make these all the time when I was a kid, so thanks for the reminder. I liked the art/adult take on it as well. The idea of taking a concept like colors or words and creating in a new way. This will be great for a day I want to create but maybe limited on time or energy.
