Tufted Puffs
This technique is called a Tuffted Puffs Background. When I saw the design by Gail Sachtleben on the Connection, I wanted to give it try. So I took my ruler, pencil and graft paper and made a primitive template. This took care of any guess work. Place a 3¾” square on the template with a little Dotto. Align a piece of scrap on the first guideline to create a mask. Sponge all the way across with strokes away from the mask. Slide the mask down to the next row and repeat. Once one side is done, rotate the square and repeat. I worked on this at a recent demonstrator retreat hosted by my upline, Pam D'urso and gave a copy of the template to all the demonstrators. And of course, I gave a copy to my customers, too. I hope everyone enjoyed making this card as much as I did. Want a copy of this primitive template? Click Here
