To
Shape up the Creation:
Select your design. Trace it down on the reverse side of
felt paper. Study your design well, visualise and decide on the parts
or portions from the design to be cut and removed. Mark those parts on the design.
A simple example is shown on the right side. Now start cutting the marked
parts using sharp cutter, gently without spoiling the edges of the design. After
finishing the cutting, put glue evenly on the felt paper and gently press it on
the chart paper, without any air bubble. Different colour chart papers
and felt papers are available and can be used.
Please note that once its stuck
on the chart paper, the picture will be complete. Laminate and preserve your design
as the felt paper might get spoilt fast. |
