Lesley’s Top Tips!

“When embossing, start with a light pressure and leave to rest for around 20 minutes. Then emboss again lightly.
Repeat this until the parchment has an even, smooth, white finish, with no grey patches.”
“You should use the largest embossing tool that will fit in the space being embossed. You can follow up with a smaller embossing tool to get clean edges.”

and offers you some practise in tracing with white ink. Your basic tool kit plus:
PCA
Bold Straight FlexiDuo Grid
Bold Four Needle perforating tool
And
White ink and pen with fine nib
Black felt tip pen with fine point
Four black brads
Black insert card
Red insert card
Perforate
Before tracing the pattern, place the
parchment on your Bold Straight Grid and
perforate an oblong border (64 holes wide x
130 holes long).
Inside this oblong perforate another two
rows.
Trace
Place the parchment over the pattern,
centralising the design inside the perforated
border.
With a white pencil, trace the oblong frame
around the picture and the smaller panel
containing the sentiment.
Use white ink to trace everything else
including the sentiment.
Emboss
Turn the parchment to work on the reverse
and with your Extra Small Ball tool or Scriber
emboss the pencilled lines.
Starting with your Medium Ball tool and
working down to your Small Ball tool,
emboss the bird’s wings and tail feathers.
Note - The bird’s body isn’t embossed but is
coloured on the reverse with a white pencil,
around the oval markings and up to the tail
feathers.
Judith’s Top Tip!

“To speed up the perforating process use
a Four Needle tool, rather than a
One Needle tool.”

Judith’s Top Tip!

“If you experience problems with tracing, remember to keep your pen
upright so the nib doesn’t ‘spread out’ giving you a thick line.
Dipping the nib in clean water and drying before re-dipping into the ink
will help to stop it clogging or blotting.”
