- Fold the printed paper on the middle
- When you have the paper folded, fold it again on the middle to mark the folding line; then, leave it open (just folded once)
- Fold the right up corner to the center and the same with the left up corner; then, leave it open with the folding lines marked
- Hide these up corners inside of the paper
- Fold the excess paper upwards in both sides of the paper (like when making paper boats) and unfold again
- Bring the tip of the “boat” to the vertex created by the last folding move
- Open the folding paper and fold the two triangles inside. Like this, you’ll have the flap that will hold the picture
- Fold again on the opposite direction
- Place the picture
