Helpful Hints

To create the techniques featured in this artwork, follow the helpful hints outlined below. Then use the Make It from the Heart®: Pattern 16—Left information found on page 36 of our how-to publication for inspiration.

• To create the striped design on the base page, use the bone folder to create evenly spaced vertical lines across the entire page; lightly sponge lines to add visual interest.
• When cutting pieces A and D, use White Daisy cardstock and then attach a strip of washi tape to the cardstock. This allows the circles of the washi tape to pop off the cardstock.
• Embellish with stamped accents, paper accents, and accessories, adding dimension with 3-D foam tape as desired.
