Tips from the show

• If you lack dexterity when fussy-cutting, cut slightly larger and use a matching ink colour with a sponge to tidy white edges.
• The card stock carries water well, so you can add your own watercolour or acrylic details if desired.
• Arrange embellishments asymmetrically rather than symmetrically for a more natural, appealing look.
