Here's How

Pattern

  1. Enlarge pattern 415% on a copy machine. Trace the patterns onto tracing paper with your pencil. Use scissors to cut out the pattern pieces. Secure the pattern pieces to the felt with pins & cut out felt.
  2. Transfer pattern details onto the cutouts using the fabric transfer pen (always follow manufacturer's direction). DO NOT transfer the tiny shading guide dots!

Painting Procedure

  1. Faces: Load dry flat brush with baby Blue. Lightly scrub the color around the petal outline edges. Repeat for the yellow felt face centers, using Cadmium Orange. Use a circular motion to brush in the cheek areas. When dry, use the liner brush to add tiny White highlights to the cheeks and onto each red felt nose. Use the liner brush and Black to create the eyes, smiles and petal accent lines.
  2. Messages: Load a dry flat brush with Ultra Blue. Lightly scrub the color around the outside edges of the blue felt message cutout. Repeat for the Pink felt message cutout, using Magenta. Use the liner brush to paint black lettering on both messages.
  3. Leaf Arms: Load a dry flat brush with Lime. Lightly scrub the color around the petal edges, using the shaded dots on your pattern for reference. Let dry.

Assembly
Refer to your pattern for reference

  1. Glue the faces in place over the white petal base.
  2. Place glue along the bottom of each message cutout and glue into place.
  3. Glue the leaf arms onto the base of the face, arranging so that the message can be glued securely over the ends of each arm. Leaf "thumbs"should then be glued over each message.
  4. Nose should then be glued securely onto faces so; that the bottom half of nose rests over the message cutouts.
  5. Accent dots are then glued into place around the face borders, slightly overlapping onto the white petals.
  6. Glue a button magnet to the back center of the completed project.
