 | Some simple grid work in each
corner frames these bold daisies with their stippled centres |
| This narcissus is embossed then
delicately coloured on the back with blendable pencils. The heart tool
borders this 'Happy Birthday' card |
| The bold poppy is simple to emboss.
The red checks on the background are coloured with felt pen and the embossed
border uses only a four-needle tool |
| The Dutch tulips design is traced
with sepia and blue inks, then coloured on the reverse with blendable
pencils. The vase uses a simple but effective embossing technique to make
the flower stems appear to be in water. A straight grid is used to create
the perforated border inside the picture. This would make a souvenir for
someone who’s just enjoyed a holiday in Holland! |
| Three delicate sweet-pea blossoms
are traced with white pencil, then embossed. The inner border around the
flowers uses a three-needle tool (or you can perforate over the pattern with
a one-needle tool) and is
embossed with a star tool. A
PCA straight fine grid was used for the outer border which was embossed and
cut but the full pattern is given so you can also work over the pattern with
a four-needle tool |
| A larger-than-life fushia bloom is
traced with white pencil and then embossed. The flower is displayed on a
blue and mauve dorsed background. The lace border was created on the PCA
fine square grid but the full pattern is given so you can perforate over it
with the four-needle tool. A gold pen was used for the frame around the
bloom and also the greeting but alternatively you could use gold peel-offs |
