    Parchment craft Greetings.Dasara elephant

    I did this for Dasara festival.When I was young my father used to take us to Mysore to see Dasara procession It was a great sight to see decked elephants horses and cows marching one behind the other One elephant used to carry Goddess Mahishasuramardhiniin a houda In an other Maharaja used to sit.That grandeur is no more..But,I have decorated My Dasara elephant according to my capacity ! This is my 50th post !

    Hi Pari
    Parchment craft is done on 150 gsm parchment paper.You can say it is very thick tracing paper. design is traced with white pencil.lines are embossed from the reverse side of the picture.various types of perforations are done .If you see my peacock design you will understand.I have embossed in the butterfly design.usually the work is coloured on the reverse.There are various types of tools for embossing perforating and cutting.In you tube thre are many demonstration of this craft.
