Now you can start making the 3-D points. It is not as tricky as it looks.

 

 

German Star Tutorial 27

 

27. Take the bottom left strip (here blue) and fold it so that it looks like the picture above.

 

German Star Tutorial 28

 

28. Now “stand” the strip up so that it looks like the picture above.

 

German Star Tutorial 29

 

29. Insert the end of this strip under and through the strip to the right (here green).

 

German Star Tutorial 30

 

30. The point of the (here blue) strip should appear between the triangle point to the bottom right of the star as you see in the picture above.

 

German Star Tutorial 31

 

31. Pull the end of the (blue) strip until the 3-D point forms. Turn your work 90° to the right or clockwise and repeat the above steps to the next color. (here green). Then repeat for the next 2 colors...

 

German Star Tutorial 32

 

32.  ... until your work looks like the picture above. The first 3-D points are finished on the front side. Now you need to do the back side.

 

German Star Tutorial 33

 

33. Now you will flip your work over and it looks like this.

 

German Star Tutorial 34

German Star Tutorial 39
