Cut two sheet of light blue card into 6” by 12” pieces. Score three of them at 5 ¾” and 6” horizontally. Place two of the strips on the table in front of you so they lie horizontally. Glue the right section to the left section lining the edge of the right one to the 6” scoreline of the left piece. Take the third strip and place it vertically. Glue the 6 “ top section to the centre of the other sections .
Tear strips of various green and brown card and build up the grass hill sections.
Ink the edges of EVERYTHING!!!! Them build up each design. If you want to, use a fine liner blackpen and dash around the edges of each piece to highlight.
Cut a piece of light green card 5 ¾” long by 6” deep. Cut strips of acetate and stick them to the back of the sign post and the Flower 6 section. Align them to where you want them to go and cut small slits into the light green piece of card. Thread the acetate through the card and attach it to the bottom of the vertical centre section.
