Paper crafting in 3D

So Craft Creations, you know i like them, right? Because currently i am working on some of their designs that are in their bargain area. These are the first 3 finished and all that is needed is some box frames and they will be sorted, but first i have to do two more.

The two sheets below are for the final two designs. Each picture is cut out, depending on which seems to be the background, slowly being removed, till the front facing items, stand out. I'm not explaining very well, but i'll be honest i'm not quite sure how to explain it. Sticky fixers help with each layer too.

Tiny sharp scissors, a lot of patience and slow cutting will all in the end go into each design, and the effect is worth all the time spent on them. As for whether these are toadstools or mushroom, i have no idea, i'm not that up on my fungi.

But at 5p a sheet, yes i did say 5p! They are too good a bargain to leave, and of course, being craft minded, i'm sure you will find the site will have many more delights for your stash, after all we all have them.


The next 3 designs are again from Craft Creations, and these are for our landing, which has a whole nautical theme going on. Again 3D decoupage, using careful cuts, and sticky fixers to mount each layer. The effect is certainly awe inspiring, if i do say so myself. But my son loves them, even though the shark may be a lil scary.

I'm thinking of trying to find a box frame for all three, so that the impact isn't lessened by multi frames.. I haven't decied on the fungi yet. Going to see when i finish them all.

I know one thing, i'm made amess with tiny confetti everywhere, but it's helped me take my mind of the fact i still feel way off colour with my throat and ears, but with the sun out, i feel spring is round the corner and i'm aiming to get back on track with sorting out this house of chaos. Untill then, i'm on the rest order from the doctor, and i must obey of course.

Happy Crafting all!
