General
This is a simple pergamano project that can be created with the minimum of tools. To create this ornament you will need 6" x 8" piece of parchment paper, white ink and mapping pen, medium embosser, red dorso crayon, scissors, single hole perforator, 2!/2" plastic gold hoop, 12" white and gold sheer ribbon and silicone glue. Optional supplies include gold ink, perga glaze varnish and extra fine white glitter.
Tracing
Trace the entire angel design, the border design and the angel wings with the white ink. For variety, you can trace the angels halo and the scallop design in the boarder with gold metallic ink.
Dorsing
Dorso the angels cheeks on the back of the traced parchment.
Embossing
Emboss the angels wings on the whole design and on the individually traced wings. Emboss the angels hair and the dots in the border design.
Perforating
With the single hole embosser, pierce around the entire border design. Keep the perforations very close together so the border can be easily punched out of the sheet. This results in a very lacy edge.
Cutting
Cut out the wings and the angel design along the traced circle.
Assembling
Assemble the cut circle into the gold hoop. Glue with the silicone glue. Glue the border design on the back of the hoop. With the silicone glue, glue the wings in place onto the angel. Glue the wings with a three dimensional manner, not flat onto the design. Varnish the entire ornament with the perga glaze for strength and a shiny surface. Finish your ornament by adding a small bow at the top.
Print out the following diagram to fit an 8 1/2 wide piece of paper (width only) for the correct pattern size.
