Drawing the Stem

To draw the stem use the black pen and don't make it just a stick give it some curves.

Drawing the Flower

Use the black pen to draw the petals (the pictures are most helpful because it is hard to explain) so keep drawing them until you find the petals to your liking. After doing a few of the petals that are in the first picture draw tiny triangular waves in between each petal as seen in the second photo.

Drawing the Leaves

Use the same technique as you used to draw the petals use the black pen also and draw two leaves on each side, after drawing the shape of them draw a curve in the middle then connect lines to it.

Draw the Ground

Use the black pen and make lines back and fourth under the stem. This step is pretty simple.

A Pop of Color to the Leaves

Use a green fine tip pen and outline some of the lines in the petal

Adding a Pop of Color to the Petals

Using a fine tip colored pen loosely color around in it to give a vintage illustration look or outline the edges in your pen

Writing a Message

15577001000128430934067555157162.jpg
At the top of the white paper write a message such as happy birthday, feel better soon , ect. First write in pencil then go over in black pen.

Glueing the Paper

15576999945183973484937280370463.jpg
Use the ruler to help center the piece of white paper on the colored sheet then use the glue to glue them together. ( i ended up changing the color of the paper to this green instead of the one in the supply photo )

You're Done!! Enjoy the Card!
