Dot To Dot To Dot...

By Lizzi Coope

Materials Required:

Standard hold punch.

Daisy paper punch.

Gold crepe paper CP930, or Gold foil.

Tracing paper and pencil.

Scrap of plain paper.

Photomount and sticky fixers.

P. V.A. Craft adhesive.

Card mount: AP17U-46, Hammer Cream.

To Make The Card:

Using P.V.A. adhesive, glue the card

closed and put under a heavy object until

it is firmly stuck and is nice and flat.

Trace the heart from the diagram, place

the tracing face down, line it up neatly in the

aperture and retrace over the line to transfer

it onto the card.

Stick a sheet of photomount onto the back

of the crepe paper. Make sure you empty the

paper punch tray before starting or the dots

already in there will be difficult to separate

from the ones you really want. I have used

two sizes of dot to fill in the heart and to work

the heart border, using one size will look very

little different in this instance.

Try using the point of a craft knife blade to

loosen the backing. Hold the dot so you are

looking at it ‘edge on’ gently push the tip of the

blade into the edge (you will need good eyesight

for this). Push the blade gently sideways towards

the backing sheet.

Punch out dots all along one edge of the crepe

paper and photomount ‘sandwich’, trim the used

edge from the sheet and punch out another row

of dots. Repeat as required, I haven’t counted

how many dots I used but you can always punch

out more as you need them.

This just peels the backing away a little at one

edge allowing easy finger access later. Do lots of

dots in one go so

you don’t have to

keep picking up

the knife. Because

only the edge of

the backing is

peeled up you

can safely drop

the dots onto the

work surface

without them

sticking on to it.

Actual

Size

Separating the

sticky dot from it’s

backing sheet can

be a frustrating

business, and try-

ing to peel them

by hand usually

results in a spoiled

or creased edge on

many of the dots.

Once you have a little collection of dots

ready for hand peeling you can start sticking

them in place. Begin with the centre heart which

you pencilled in earlier.

Place a single row of dots all round the outer

edge of the card mount overlapping the dots by

about half as before.

Cut a 2.5cm x 10cm strip off the edge of the

crepe paper, peel the backing and stick onto a

piece of plain paper. Punch out four daisies, the

paper backing will stiffen the petals just a little.

Glue one daisy onto each corner of the mount

by the centre only so the petals remain free and

gently bend them up from the card.

1. Start by placing

a dot at the bottom

point of the heart,

overlapping the line

by about half of the

dot. Work up the

right hand edge of

the heart laying the

dots overlapping the

line and each other

by about half a dot.

Continue round the

heart until you reach

the start point again.

2. Work a row of

dots from the bottom

most space right

up the centre of

the heart, this will

ensure there are no

little gaps as you fill

in the centre of the

heart.

Stick a little plain crepe paper onto two sticky

fixer pads and punch out four dots, if you can

get them quite close together you may only need

to use one pad. Peel the backing from the sticky

fixer dots and stick one onto the centre of each

daisy.

The valentine card below is made from dots

in three different sizes, all the dots are punched

from sticky fixers covered with pearly or holo-

graphic paper giving the card a very three

dimensional finish.

The little hearts are made using a heart punch

and plain yellow paper. They are stuck onto the

card using dots of sticky fixer made with my

smallest size hole punch.

3. Fill in the heart

working in neat

rows from the edge

inward. Break the

line at the centre as

as shown, but other-

wise, overlap the

dots by about half

as before.

4. Try to keep the

rows on both sides

as even as possible.

You should finish

close to the centre

with the very last

dot.

Work the outer

heart line by placing

a single row of dots

following the shape

of the aperture. Stick

the dots halfway

across the join

between the card

and it’s aperture and overlapping each other by

about half as before.
