Video Friday | Paper Diorama / Figurine Holder with Olga
Hi there, it's
Olga
and I am back with another 3D project tutorial. I have literally gasped when I first saw
Becca Feeken's new 3D card dies
. This is the type of dies that I have been waiting for - the one that allows you to easily create a diorama or a shadow box template just by cutting out all elements and then assembling it.
My favorite die set from this collection is
Grand Arch 3D Card
just because it has a simple rectangle for an outline which makes it super versatile and suitable for all styles.
I have used this gorgeous die set to create a diorama that holds a plaster figurine. You could also place any other small things inside like a pot with a succulent or a cactus, a tiny vase with real or artificial flowers or any other treasured memorabilia.
I have also used some other Spellbinders dies that coordinate great with the 3D card template - the gorgeous
Nordic Tree
made a perfect background and it fits right inside the arch! I combined the flowers and leaves from different sets to twirl around the trellis and I finally added a die cut sentiment to a label and placed it at the bottom of the arch.
This project might look super complicated when you first see it - but I assure you it is much much easier to make than it seems because most of work is already done for you by the die creators and it is really just about die cutting and putting it together!
