Iris Folding
Iris Folding is a technique where folded strips of colored or patterned paper or ribbon are layered in a spiral pattern behind a cut-out pattern or aperture. It is called Iris Folding because it resembles the iris of a camera. We have loads of kits and patterns! Come in and we will show you how to do it! It's easy!

These messages focus on the child, rather than their illness, which is important, according to Child Life Specialists. You can also come up with your own uplifting comments. If you want the CFHK team to review your comments, feel free to contact us. People often choose to include characters or themes (minions, Disney characters, animals, sports, etc.), on the front or inside of the cards. These types of cards are extremely popular with kids, and always a great option! |
