To form the base, you will need 4 blanks made of cardboard - as a template: a plate with leaves, a large flower with 8 petals, a small one and a middle circle.

The cut templates are transferred to foamiran sheets, cut out. A large flower has petals cut through, which are then glued to each other in a circle, forming a miniature basket. Patterns are applied to the green leaf base with a glitter marker. You can also decorate the small central part with them. A strip 1 cm wide is cut out of glitter foamiran, closed into a ring, glued between the parts of the flower as a handle. Its top is decorated with a bow made of the same material, but in a contrasting color. A bead is fixed in the center. The basket is ready.
