Instructions
Step 1
The size of the finished congratulation is 14 × 14 cm. Make a template for an openwork postcard motif. Follow the scheme for the image of a goat on colored textured paper, then cut out the decorative elements.
Step 2
Start cutting from the smallest areas of the design.
Step 3
When you have finished machining the interior of the sketch, continue working along the outer contour.
Step 4
Prepare the main (bottom) layer of the postcard. Print the template on a piece of heavy duty office paper so that there are no scoring lines on the substrate.
Step 5
Staple the bottom layer with the filigree surface. Immediately give the blank in the center the necessary shape according to the special marks, cut it out. It is better to cut straight sections of the outline along the ruler.
Step 6
Fold the finished base coat along the pre-scored lines. Tone the silhouette of the decorative lace element with a suitable shade using a stamp pad.
Step 7
Glue the openwork layer with double-sided tape to the outside of the card.
Step 8
Finally, decorate the artistic image with half beads, apply a glossy accent to the background behind the openwork component in the form of dots, which will significantly refresh the card and make the image three-dimensional. You can use your design idea as you see fit.
Step 9
A stylish present for the New Year is ready.
