For work, we need:
- a plastic thermal napkin of blue color.
- scissors.
- glue gun.
- ruler.
- beads of a dark green shade.
- pencil and ballpoint pen.
- paper.
- the cloth.
Let's start with the basics. To do this, we will take our thermal napkin and make markings with a pencil. In total, we will need 30 cm. 6 cm for bending fields and 18 cm of the main one. In height, it will be 14 cm to us. We cut a blank from plastic. We got 2 parts of the workpiece, as it was not enough for the second bending edge, so we cut a 6x14 cm rectangle from plastic.
We note on the workpiece the lines of future folds. This can easily be done with a pencil. Since the plastic is harsh, we will bend it using an iron ruler.
After we bent the folds, we will glue the missing part of the edge. For the connection we will use a glue gun. We put the missing part on a short edge and glue it well. Since this material is very complex, it must be glued very well. For greater effect, you can use the glue “Moment” or universal glue “Titan”.
For our cover, we took a soft blue fabric. We cut it out as well as for the base, but do not forget about the overlap. From all sides we add 1 cm.
Glue the fabric to the base. We do everything quickly and accurately so that the glue does not have time to dry.
We glue the fabric, which remained on the overlap. If it turned out unevenly and the threads stick out, it's okay, carefully cut the threads with scissors, and bend the uneven edges with glue.
Gently apply adhesive solution along the edge and glue the bent edges. The main thing is not to glue too large strips with glue, but to make them thin, otherwise our passport will not fit into the cover.
Let's start making decorations for our cover. First, we’ll make the color patterns. To do this, we need workpieces in 3 sizes. Large - 5.5x5.5 cm, medium - 4.5x4.5 cm, and small - 3x3 cm.
We cut the blanks according to the templates. We have them in the shape of a flower with five petals. In total, we need 1 large petal, 3 medium and 2 small ones.
We take scissors and make cuts on the workpieces, without cutting a little to the middle.
We begin to give our blanks a new shape. To do this, bend one of the five petals in half.
Thus, we process all 5 petals.
We give a new form to all the blanks.
Start picking flowers. Glue the middle one to the large petal, so that the divided leaves are staggered.
To make our flowers even more beautiful, we will use dark green beads.
The third row of our flower will be from a small petal. We also have it in a checkerboard pattern. And on top, in the resulting middle of a small petal, glue a bead.
The second flower will consist of 2 rows. We take the petals of medium and small size. We glue them together so that the petals are staggered. Glue a bead in the middle of a small petal.
We begin to stick flowers to the cover. Glue a flower of 2 petals in the lower left corner.
Above and to the right we have a large flower of 3 rows.
Place a third flower even higher and a little to the right. It consists of 1 row and beads in the center.
In the upper left corner we glue 3 beads. In the lower right corner, glue 1 bead. Take a prepared inscription, you can make it yourself or buy a finished one.
Glue our inscription to the cover.That's it, our passport cover is ready.
Good luck to all.
