On the table spread a sheet of felt that color, in which you want to make a cover. On it, put the marks equal to the width and length of the passport and plus from each side for 0.5 centimeters for allowances for seams. Cut out this workpiece.

Further from the same fabric (or can be made of a different color matter), perform the details of the inner side parts of the cover. Its length should be equal to the length of the pattern of the main part, and the width of not less than 5-6 centimeters. If done already, the sheets of the passport will slip out of the cover. Now we apply one internal detail to the main one and connect them with a suture seam with threads of a floss. Similarly, we design the other side of the product. If desired, this seam can be done all the edges of the craft, it will look beautiful and interesting. The basis of such an item, as a cover for a passport, has been executed by one's own hands. Let's start decorating.

The "highlight" of this product will be a beautiful applique on the front side. To do this, we sketch a sketch of the desired picture. Then cut out the template and transfer it to felt. We carry out workpieces for applique. Sew them on the front side of the sleeve with embroidery threads. That's all, "clothes" for your main document is made. As for applications, they can be very diverse. For inspiration, you can see photos of similar products in this article.

From the paper, cut out a rectangular shape, corresponding to the size of the transparent cover. The edges of the workpiece are rounded off. A scrapbook of another color cuts a rectangular piece. Its dimensions should be about twice as large as the printed "passport" inscription. The edges of this blank are processed with a decorative punch. We paste on it in the center a piece of paper with an inscription. On the front side of the main paper part, we paste a decorative element with the name of the document.

In the lower right corner (or in any place you want) we attach flat flowers. Using a double-sided adhesive tape, attach the cover of paper to the plastic transparent. We paste the document inside. Everything, the craft is ready to surprise everyone with its beauty and uniqueness.

Description of the process of manufacturing a cover for documents in decoupage technique

For work we assume with confidence that the cover on the passport, made by ourselves, will turn out not just beautiful, but remarkable. Let's get down to creativity.

The plastic surface of the cover is slightly cleaned with sandpaper to make it rough. Next, wipe it with acetone, that is degrease. The next step is applying white acrylic paint. We paint the entire surface and leave the product to dry. Then we apply another coat of paint. We try to distribute it evenly. When the cover on the passport, prepared for decoupage with your own hands, will be completely dry, then you can begin to decorate it. From the napkin we cut out the workpiece of the same size as the cover itself. With acrylic lacquer, cover the fold of the cover and 2 cm from it in each direction. Let the material dry out a little. We apply to the fold a piece of napkin exactly in the middle and with fingers to iron in different directions. Then spread the varnish 2 cm more on both sides and glue the napkin. Thus, we make out the cover to the end. We smooth the paper well, expelling air from under it. It is very important after the application to give the varnish a little to dry, otherwise it will wet the napkin, and it can dehydrate and crumble into wrinkles.

When the whole surface of the product is framed, we grease it with a layer of varnish on top. Leave the cover to dry. If the edges of the napkin have gone beyond the cover, sketch them. The ends of the craft are painted with acrylic paint, matched to the napkins. Finally, cover the cover with another layer of varnish. The product is ready, the master class "Cover on the passport in the technique of decoupage" is over. Pleasant creativity!
