Passo dopo passo

1. Protect your work surface with kitchen towel and position the fan stencil on a pre-cut blue card piece. ▶ watch 2:00
2. Spray the stencil lightly with blue ink dye from above to create the first layer of the fan pattern. ▶ watch 2:30
3. Reposition the stencil to continue the fan design across the card piece, covering the top section to avoid overspray. ▶ watch 3:00
4. Lift away the stencil and wipe any excess spray with a clean cloth to reveal the shimmering fan design. ▶ watch 3:15
5. Glue the stencilled panel to a white card blank, positioning it to one side with a holographic strip underneath for definition. ▶ watch 4:00
6. Stamp a large corner stamp in black ink onto the stencilled panel to frame and add detail to the design. ▶ watch 6:00
7. Reverse and reposition the corner stamp to create a rectangular frame effect across the panel. ▶ watch 7:15
8. Paint bamboo canes onto a separate card piece using a flat brush and metallic blue acrylic paint, creating uneven segments. ▶ watch 9:00

12. Colour the geisha girl using watercolours and the metallic blue acrylic paint, adding depth with darker tones and highlights. ▶ watch 21:00
13. Fussy-cut around the coloured geisha girl, leaving a small white border to make the image stand out. ▶ watch 25:30

Consigli dalla puntata

• The textured paper adds to the effect of the painted bamboo without needing solid lines.
• Silicon stamps are forgiving and can be moulded to fit curved cards or corners.
