Step 1
Take a square of white card 13cm by 14cm and carefully tear one edge which becomes the top. Glue this to a turquoise card blank 15cm square.
-
Step 2
Using a patterned paper cut out a simple tree trunk shape and glue to the white card. Then cut by hand leaf shapes of differing sizes. Do not worry if they are not even. Quite a few leaves are needed so just keep cutting.
-
Step 3
Now carefully glue on the leaf shapes around the tree trunk, using just small amounts of glue on the leaves. You can apply glue to the leaves with a toothpick/cocktail stick or needle tool. Work outwards from the trunk gluing leaves on the card. Ensure that some of the the smaller leaf shapes are intermingled with larger leaves.
