This is a subject of more than a few lines. Buy a book.

Hello Margarita!

While I agree with the wise Mr. Watts, there are some articles on the web that give an introduction to electroforming. There is an article in the Guidebook that Metal Finishing magazine has placed online, and the Nickel Development Institute has some technical information on electroforming. I'd suggest you start with these, and if you need more detailed information invest in a good book.

Good luck!
