I actually folded this two weeks ago, but only today got to making a picture of it. It's a version of the Sakura Star that starts with a twist base, another wonderful model by Ali Bahmani. I've utterly fallen in love with it. Then again, I might be biased, as Ali gave me the honor of dedicating this model to me. Thank you, Ali!
Paper for the star: pentagon from a 15cm square of blue/purple batik paper

Paper for the envelope and card: Elephant Hide, batik paper
Sometimes I get asked what I do with my folded models. While I don't do this nearly often enough, I do give some models away.
The Sakura Star when folded flat makes a really nice focal point of a greeting card. I also gave away two more three-dimensional Sakura Stars attached to an envelope, which I hand-delivered.
