Border Designs

By Patricia Rothera

These designs are made using card mounts

which have flowers and ribbons embossed onto

the front panel. I use the embossed design as a

guide for my decorations. Please refer to issue

18 for tatted picot flower instructions (or one of

several other issues which show them).

Materials Required:

Mixture of threads in Christmas colours.

Glitter glue: Gold and Green.

Small piece of tartan ribbon.

Gold holographic sequins.

Scrap of thin card.

P. V.A. Craft adhesive.

Card mount: AP80R-59, Natural White.

To Make The Card:

Make nine flowers in red and three flowers in

red and silver worked together, with eight picots

each. Glue the card closed keeping the glue to

the edges of the flap and away from the aperture.

Begin with the top flower, glueing it into

place. Lay the sequins and remaining red flowers

out on the card to determine the best position

for them, then glue them into place.

Cut the thin card to make a pot then fold and

glue the tartan ribbon over the

card. Glue the pot onto the card

tucking the bottom corners just

under the aperture edge and

leaving a little room for the

glitter tinsel to fit under the last

row of flowers.

The flowers on the other two cards are made

using white cotton, with fine strands of red, gold

and green all worked together to make the picot

flowers. The designs are peel off labels with clear

glitter sprinkled onto P.V.A. glue to add sparkle.

Add a dot of gold glitter

glue to the centre of each flower

and draw the curved tinsel lines

between the rows of flowers

also using the glitter glue.

Glue the three red and silver

flowers over the embossed

flower design on the mount and

trace over the embossed ribbon

with glitter glue.
