Repeat Steps 1-2 With Your 3rd Piece of Paper. You Now Have a Strip Like You Had in Step 3. Connect One End of the Strip With the Other End of the Same Strip As Shown. This Creates a Star (kind of Like a Smaller Version of the One in Step 4).

Do Step 6 Again With Your 4th Piece of Paper. NOTE: THIS PIECE SHOULD BE 16x16, NOT 16x8. You Should End Up With a Star the Same Size As the Last One, Just Thinner, As Shown.
