Valley Fold

1. Loosely fold, without making a crease.
2. Line up edges.
3. Line up a corner (by lining up the edges on one side, and lining up the edges on the other side).
4. Hold (a loosely folded, uncreased) paper down to prevent slipping.
5. While holding the paper down so it does not slip, spread out a flat area on the paper. This is often done by holding the paper down at two edges with your index fingers. Also hold down the paper with one (or both) thumbs. Gradually move your thumb(s) away from your finger(s), pushing your thumb into the paper, but pulling the paper taut between your thumb(s) and your fingers.
6. Pinch a crease. While holding the paper down so it does not slip, spread your thumb(s) far enough from the edge that they reach the intended crease line.
7. Resolve a crease. Without letting up on the paper, continue the spreading motion until the crease is sharp. The crease should be exactly where you intended it to be, without any waviness in the edge, without any "bubbles" in the layers of paper, and without any slipping of the paper at the edge(s) or corner(s).
