Nichola shows you how to create this stunning Encanto floral and stencil design using vibrant colours and accents of gold.
This is a fun packed tutorial focusing on techniques while allowing your artistic talent to take over. The lesson begins demonstrating how to make an array of colourful flowers, using various tools and cutters to add different effects such as stitched lines and curved edges that help bring more interest and shape to the overall design.
Nichola then moves on to showing you how to get creative using a pretty stencil design and achieving a tonal colour effect which is finally enhanced with tiny accents of gold leaf for a touch of glamour.
