FISKARS

Instructions

Take and A4 size piece of card and score and fold it down the centre. Choose a nice piece of paper and stick it to the card just over a 1/3rd of the way up from the base. Using the paper trimmer, cut a strip of coordinating card or paper and stick it along the top of the first piece of paper. Using the wave texture plate and the texture tool, Texture the upper part of the card (the part not covered by paper). Using the wire jig and the relevant plate fashion the flower and place it on a peice of plain white card but don't yet fasten it. Punch holes using the eyelet tool where the brads to hold it will go. Put it in place and with a pencil lightly draw around the inside of the petals and leaves. Using watercolours or ink and water, Paint within the lines loosely to the same shape as the flower. Once dry, fix the wire flower to the card. To make the hello, cut a peice of paper the same size as the jig templates. Using the one with points all over take off the top peice of plastic that fits over the jig template and through the holes draw dots to show where they are. Using the holes write the word 'hello' around the dots and use this as a template on the jig to wind your wire around. Fasten your word to a white peice of card. Using the fiskars edging scissors - deckle, cut some coloured mirricard slightly bigger than the white card and use as a mat. Stick them both to the card using foam pads or double sided tape. And thats it - Simple!
