Scraperfoil Tulips

By Jenny Harpham

Materials Required:

Silver scraperboard 10cm x 16cm.

Scraper tool.

Small sharp scissors.

Tracing paper and a pencil.

Sheet of carbon paper.

Orange and Green 3D paint.

Background paper 10cm x 16cm.

Paper tissues.

Silver pen.

P. V.A. Craft Adhesive.

Card mount: DE01U-18, Deep Red.

To Make The Card:

Trace the diagrams onto the tracing paper,

place the tracing onto the scraperboard with a

piece of carbon paper ink side down between

them. Retrace over the lines to transfer them to

the scraperboard.

When using scraperboard tools always

work towards yourself. Begin by using the tip

of the scraper tool to outline all the shapes on

the board.

To give form to the leaves and buds the inner

lines are scraped to follow the shape of the outer

lines. Add three or four

main shaping lines to

guide you before start-

ing on the close filling,

these are shown in grey

on the diagram.

To fill in the Tulips, begin with the back petal

adding varying short strokes around the top

edge. Work the other petals as for the leaves

following the contours of each petal. Begin with

light strokes and gradually add in highlights.

Gradually build up

on the leaf using long

light strokes. Add high-

lights as desired by

using heavier strokes

and the broader edge

of the tool. As you

work remove any ink

dust by wiping with

paper tissues.

When the leaves and flowers are completed,

buff up the silver sheen using paper tissues and

cut out all the pieces using small sharp scissors.

Choose a contrasting piece of background

paper, glue it into the card mount behind the

aperture and glue the card closed. Place the

leaves and flowers onto the card and move them

around until you are happy with their positions,

glue them onto the card and allow to dry.

Outline the flowers and leaves using dimen-

sional paint, I have used orange for the flowers

and green for the leaves. Add stems and swirls

of dimensional paint as desired.

I enjoy calligraphy so the wording on my cards

is hand written, the usual options of stickers,

rubber stamps etc. are available if your hand

writing is untidy.
