Safari Style

By Barbara Skaife

My background is hand painted using watercolour

paints. Other methods to try are shades of overlapping

mulberry paper, or paper which has bands of colour.

Materials Required:

Bockingford watercolour paper 12cm x 17cm.

Watercolour paints: Blue, Orange and Yellow.

Black sticky backed velour 12cm x 15cm.

Paintbrush.

Tracing paper and pencil.

Double sided tape: ADH13.

Card mount: AP02U-59, Natural White.

To Make The Card:

Paint the watercolour paper with a wash of plain

water to prepare it for painting.

Actual Size

Lightly paint small amount of blue at

the top of the paper mixing with a little

water towards the lower edge.

Mix some yellow with water to get

a very light colour and paint below the

blue merging the two naturally where

they meet.

Gradually add more yellow to the mix

to make a stronger colour as you work

down. Approximately half way down the

paper, start adding orange paint to the

yellow, getting stronger as you continue

down. Leave the background aside to dry.

Trace the giraffes and base from the

diagram. Place the tracing face down on

the back of the velour sheet and retrace

over the lines to transfer the design. Cut

out the giraffes and base.

Peel off the backing from the velour

and stick the design onto the painted

background sheet.

Mount the design and stick the card

closed using double sided tape or P.V.A.

adhesive if you prefer.
