Hey everyone!
Steph here! Today I’m sharing some inspiration on how to give your stamping a fun 3-D decoupage effect!
I’ve made a couple of 3-D decoupage effect cards before- see my card below with Tiny Townie Bonnie Loves Bows
This time I’m using Uptownie Winnie Looking Out The Window…
Firstly, you need to look at the image to see what you need to stamp out to create the layers. Here I decided to stamp out:
On the 1st image, I coloured the entire image and paper pieced the curtains. I didn’t worry too much about the quality of colouring on the frame, window box and foliage as these will be covered by other layers.
On the 2nd image (see left here), I coloured the frame and the window box and foliage (not worrying too much about the quality of colouring on the window box and foliage as this will be covered by a final layer). I then cut out the frame and the window box and foliage.
On the 3rd image (see right here), I coloured the window box and foliage and cut out. I then cut out a piece of acetate to fit the window
I then made the rest of the card and stamped out the accompanying sentiment. I attached the acetate to the second layer of window frame using very thin (3mm) double-sided tape and assembled all the layers using 3-D foam pads
You can see the layers here. I just love the effect it gives. Doesn’t she look so dreamy??!!
Hope you enjoyed this week’s tutorial and have fun creating your own 3-D scenes! x
Dimension is always a good. Except when it’s your hair on a humid day 🙂
I’ve seen this done before but I thought you needed a die cutter which I don’t have or paper punches, which I do have. I really like how pretty it looks! It’s one of those cards where if Hallmark sold them for $7 you’d say “That’s to expensive” but now you can make one! Love it! I’ll have to try this one! Thanks for the info!
These cards are amazing! Love the coloring and the 3D!
love the dimension and look to these cards! beautiful!!!
Love the decoupage look! These cards are so cute!
Steph…these are wonderful and years ago I use to do what they called 3-D Decoupage which was done the same with multiple copies of purchased cards or pictures. I hadn’t thought of doing it with my Stamping Bella stamps so thanks for the reminder and the inspiration! Can’t wait to try some myself!
Oh I love this look! Thanks so much for sharing! I’m certainly going to have to give this a try! 🙂
