instructions

1. Download and print out the template onto your chosen card or paper stock to the size you require. Colour in the image using a selection of blues, greens and lilacs, then the background floral pattern. If you wish to create a slightly faded look, draw some ink onto an old plate, add a few drops of water, mix, then apply the colour with a fine brush.

2. Keep building up the pattern until you are happy with it. Once all colours have been applied, use a pin fine line black pen to redraw any black lines that need re-emphasising. We've shown the versatility of this artwork by applying it to cards, a gift bag and a mini canvas.
