1.  Trace along the outer deckled edge with white ink also use white ink to trace the 'tear drops inside the apple
     surrounding the fairy.  Use red ink on rose buds, dark green on leaves, turquoise or  blue on dress and shoes,
     yellow on the wings, sepia on the wooden stem. For the hair use you own judgment on the coloring of the ink.
     Use black ink to outline the apple.

2.  Using a white colored pencil trace the grid lines using a ruler or other straight edge.

Embossing:

1.  Use a medium ball embossing tool and emboss around the deckled edge and around each area of the fairy in the
     apple. Use a small bowl embossing tool to emboss the tear drops surrounding the fairy.

2. Follow the grid using a ruler or other straight edge to emboss with medium embossing tool the diamond formed
    lines across the front.

3.  Use a small embossing tool to emboss around all areas of the fairy and the flowers as well as the outline of
     the apple.

Dorsing:

1.  Use a soft red-orange dorsing crayon for the apple.  It will not do any harm if this coloring runs over onto the
     fairy when being rubbed out.

2.  From the outline of the apple, outwardly blend orange to yellow to cover the entire back of the design.

Painting:

1.  Use Watercolor pencils to lightly paint in blue on the front of the image of  the fairy's dress, a light green for
      the leaves, red or pink for the roses, yellow for the wings.

Perforations:

1. Follow the grid shown and use appropriate tools to make perforations.  The center should be at least the 4-prong
    tool as you will be cutting your x's from this center area...   If you have an 8-prong tool that provides this type of
    perforation this is the ideal... if not punch your 4-prong perforation and then use a 2-prong tool for even spacing.
    Continue to follow the grid for proper spacing.

2.  Cut away x's from the center of each of these perforated areas.

3.  Use 3-prong tool on perforation marking on the top of each of the tear drops the apple area perforate and then
     cut away the inner area to make the 3-way cut away.
 
4.  Use a single prong perforation tool to perforate where each of the gridded diamonds of the front come together.

5.  Use the 2-prong tool around outer edge of the deckled outer edge and then tear away the excess paper.
