Embossing:
Using a small stylus emboss all the circles, hearts and stems.
Emboss leaves using a medium bowl stylus being sure to "fill the leaves"
Emboss the hearts using the larger bowl stylus being sure to evenly emboss the entire area. This will provide greater depth to the hearts.

Painting:
* Use a white pearl paint applied to the front of the composition.  This is only for the second example.

Dorsing:
On example # 1 dorse the hearts in red, and blend a light blue and purple outwardly.  If you do go outside the heart when dorsing keep in mind you can erase it or use lighter fluid to make this simple correction.

On example # 2 There is no dorsing done.

Perforations:

Using two prong perforation tool go around the entire outside edge of the composition.  After all perforations are completed in the composition you will "tear away" the excess paper to produce a lace look to the finished composition.

On composition #1 use the four prong perforation tool following grid for making the "x's".  Cut away the "x's".
On composition #2 there is no cutting or added perforations on the grid as you have embossed and filled in the gridded areas as circles.

Enjoy the Pattern!
