Hi everyone, it's time for the Group of Cardmakers technique. This month we have layered scene as our design theme.
I need to get a start on my Christmas cards so sorry if you aren't ready for a Christmas reminder yet but I need close to 100 by the end of the year 🤣
Layered scenes can be done in a couple of ways, the idea is to add depth to your scene by adding foam tape or using folds in your card. It's amazing how much dimension you get with both.
I created a tunnel card using die cut apertures similar to the one on Caroline Paton of KISS (keep it sweet and simple) blog and some foam tape behind each layer.
I used a Hexagon die and cut the layers out of white cardstock, the reason I used white was I wanted the edges to be white from the sides. I coloured the apertures with alcohol pens and used a scrap of black card with a cling wrap print on it as my sky. The die cut snow scene was cut from an old Stamping up Die set (now retired). I added some tiny sequins to the sky as stars. I really enjoyed making the card as it was fun creating the layers. I think I'll be giving this one out in person as it's little bulky to mail.
I hope you check out the technique and perhaps try one of them.
