Business Card Origami Sailboat
This cute sailboat can be made from a business cad. You can fold the business card along the lines shown. Or, if your business cards are thick, you can use a sharp tool to score along the lines shown. Scoring the cards first will make them easier to fold later. A good tool is a folding bone, the tip of a knife, or a pen that has run out of ink.
