3-D Découpage Made EasyThe art of 3-D decoupage involves the building of pictures using layers, creating a feeling of depth, space, shape and colour. This text presents ten projects which aim to explore the full potential of this technique. These include cards and gift-holders, 3-D pictures created from landscape, flower and portrait photographs and a miniature snow scene. Also included are instructions for using rubber stamped images to make 3-D birthday cards decorated with felt-tipped pens. Templates are included for many of the projects. |
