Yes, a kite fold is probably the simplest of folds. It isn't like the square folds in most teabag folding.

Here is one of my card using the kite fold.

and another is used in making the Christmas tree.

you could start ready for next Christmas with some Tree cards. :r Or try a butterfly
I folded some kites in half again.

Hope this gives you some ideas.

Oh Poppy! :r I'm a coffee girl really, just tea in the afternoon!
I love the fact you never know how the finished result will turn out, and it amazes me how many different results you can get from one teabag. Simple things please simple minds or so my husband tells me! :r
He should know - he chose me! :r

My brother used to say that to me when I was little,

" Simple things please simple minds". then I started to reply;

" And other people watch in sympathy, wishing they could do the same?"

He stopped saying it then!

Woops! My apologies when I looked at the butterfly again it wasn't a kite fold! Old age! :r I forgot how I did it! But it is abasic triangle fold and then folded up one third and then folded again to form small kites. Easy peasey when you know how! :r

Instructions are here
