All the embossing on this project is done on the back.
The colouring on this project is done on the back.
Step 1: Die cut the 4th largest picot square on clear parchment using the Nested Squares Picot dies.
Using the Groovi No.1 tool (or Pergamano 1mm embossing ball tool), emboss the largest double square outlines, scallops, and dots and the 3rd largest double square outlines over the Nested Scallops Squares Groovi plate.
Step2: In the middle, emboss 4 circles from any of the 123 Groovi plate using the No.1 tool (or Pergamano 1mm embossing ball tool).
Step 3: In the top right circle (this will appear on the left on the front), emboss medium size sweet pea design over the Sweet Pea Groovi plate using the Groovi No.1 tool (or Pergamano 1mm embossing ball tool).
Step 4: In the remaining circles, emboss various medium size flowers from the 123 Groovi plates using the Groovi No.1 tool (or Pergamano 1mm embossing ball tool).
Step 5: In the frame, emboss the background over the Floral Backgrounds Groovi plate using the Groovi No.2 tool (or Pergamano 1.5mm embossing ball tool) for the circles and the Groovi No.1 tool (or Pergamano 1mm embossing ball tool) for the rest of the design.
Step 6: Using the Groovi 2, 3 & 4 tools (or Pergamano 1mm, 1.5mm and 3mm embossing ball tools) gently emboss in the floral designs, scallops and circles.
(Let the parchment rest between layers)
Step 7: Still working on the back, colour using the Perga Liner B pencils.
Step 8: Blend the colours using a little Dorso oil and a blending nib. Use a different nib for each colour if possible.
(If you have too much oil on your nib, the colour will come off, so blot off the excess on a piece of kitchen towel. If you have too little oil, the blending will not be smooth, so touch just the very tip of the nib on the Dorso oil for the tiniest amount of oil)
To Finish: Add as much or as little (or none) Perga glitter as you wish.
Mount and layer the parchment piece on designer paper, white card and companion paper.
Attach all the layers using Pergamano brads.
Stick this on folded white card using Clarity Roll-a-Tape.

Sending everyone STAY SAFE WISHES sprinkled with PERGA GLITTER. Take care.
Lots of Love, Hugs and Laughter
