Kay 3,709 Posted December 29, 2007 Author Report Share Posted December 29, 2007 Very smart well done look`s like a -lot of hours work put in to the cards cutting all the bits out to build the layers is time consuming , but once you have done the cutting out its pretty quick to do the rest Quote Link to post Share on other sites
BlueCoyote 0 Posted December 29, 2007 Report Share Posted December 29, 2007 my mother in law has some things like this made by her friend in Holland. at least i think they're like this. layers upon layers of cards to create an almost 3-D image right? i was looking at them when we were visiting for Christmas very interesting and i want to make some of my own!

Yes thats right , there supposed to give a 3 d effect, it dont really show in the pics though Quote Link to post Share on other sites
BlueCoyote 0 Posted December 29, 2007 Report Share Posted December 29, 2007 the second one does show it a bit, but i had to make sure mother in law told me you have to buy loads of cards - greeting cards - to do it right. Or, she says, they have kits now with foam stuff to make the pictures stand out. i dont think that would quite look the same, though it would probably be faster in the long run lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites
