How to make a maple leaf by yourself? Quilling and master classes
В последние месяцы осени каждый из нас хочет feel the season for real and maybe even make your own craft on this theme. Quilling is a great opportunity to realize your skills and at the same time, practice something new. We suggest you make a seasonal craft in the form of a fallen maple leaf, which is perfect for maintaining the necessary external signs of the season in the interior.Seasonal card - materials We will need special materials:
- Glue is needed for blanks
- Strips of paper three millimeters wide
- Tweezers for quilling processing
- Scissors for processing quilling
- Template leaflet
Preparing the templateIn order to obtain a symmetrical shapeleaf, you need to prepare a template blank. We will choose the shape of a "sandwich", which we will make using three pieces of cardboard, which must first be greased with glue. In addition, you need to make a blank of the maple leaf drawing, or copy the required version from the Internet (for example, print it out). Wrap it all on top with tape. Scotch tape in this case is a must, since otherwise we can get a leaf that will simply be attached to the template. We continue to workUsing strips of red paper, we selectleaflet density. It should be 130 grams per square meter. We create the skeleton of the future leaf. To securely fasten the product, we use pins. Next, we take a strip 6-12 centimeters long and recreate rolls in which we form the shape of an "eye", "triangle" and "droplet".All the shapes that will be the veins of the leafwill fit on our plate, which we must fill. The plate must be pasted over with paper tape. We make toning of the sheet with ink and a sponge, from the middle to the sides, making the tone dark. Finishing workThat's it, our blank is ready! We can use it to decorate our works or the interior of our home!
