TULIPS OF PAPER

Good day! There was a need tulips, and selling them do not often see ... You can make origami and quilling, of course ... But there are helpers - Punches! So, I present to you a small MK fabrication favorite spring flowers from paper pastels:

For the manufacture of tulips need:

- Punch "sexfoil" 5cm (suitable and "cinquefoil");
- Paper for pastels (160-220 g) 2 colors - green and ... for buds;
- Twine green paper (or regular watercolor paint);
- Embossing - motochek wire stack or stick with scribbled rod;
- Pads for paint tinting petals and leaves;
- Container with water + napkins; - PVA glue; - Awl or scissors;
- Stamping pad (silicone is best).

Making blank: Flower - punch and leaves freeform scissors. Also of twine do stalks - 5-7 cm, at the end of Ties knot. Billets moistened in water, spread on a cloth to remove excess moisture (if soaked all the blank immediately, then tuck in their second cloth to not dry). One flower gat, toning on the edges and embossed need petals.

You can emboss spokes, stack, written rod ...
Hanks does best wire (idea Astoria ) -
veins are obtained very naturally.
If the paper is moistened, the veins are shallow, fuzzy.
Leave for a while, and then embossed! Just need a softer pad and push harder!

Embossed and not fully dried up blank (by the way, it is better to turn the veins outward) to form a flower with a ruler with round holes and handles with round tip (or something else). Laminating paper over the hole can be given once the petals form. Gat flower, dried and finally make a hole in the middle - an awl or nail scissors.

In hole insert "stalk" at the bottom fix glue.

Next, do not delay long, forming bud - grease onto PVA in one and bending fingers glue them together in the bud.

PVA is not immediately grasped - hold in your hand a little, rolling flower between fingers - thus making it roundish. Do not overdo it - streaks of moisture glue may disappear!

The next step - we coat adhesive remaining petals and glue to dry up completely based butona.Poka flowers (they can be put on the battery), embossed leaves! Better for this rod or needle stack.

Leaflets can be toned after drying.
That's it - pick a bouquet and sticking it on a postcard
using a "Moment-gel" or a hot glue.
