3D Paper Craft Frame (Personalised)


3D Paper Craft Frame (Personalised)
Fabulous homemade gifts for all

I wanted to make a very special present for my boyfriends mum on the birthday of her youngest child and daughter who sadly is longer with us; this was to help celebrate her birth and the life that she lived; unfortunately I was unable to have the privilege to meet with her so I wanted to make something very personal and very special that she could keep close to her heart and in memory on her 24th year.

This was my very first attempt at 3D art and once again it has led me into another magical place in the craft world.



Here is a short step by step guide to creating a 3D Paper craft Frame:

Tools:
  • 3D Frame (can be bought from most stationary & home ware stores)
  • Shaped Punches (various shapes available)
  • Patterned Card/Paper
  • Double sided padded tape
  • White card (size to fit inside of frame)
1. Cut shapes out of your patterned paper using your selected punch shape

    2. Cut your white card to the size of the inside of your selected frame
    3. Place padded tape on to cut out shapes to the required height and ensure one is on the bottom to enable the art to stick to the finished product
    4. Once you have plenty of 3D shapes ready; place them onto your white card and re-arrange until you have your selected shape.
    5. Finally one by one peal off the bottom tape and stick firmly to the card ensuring you keep the shape you need.

The idea can be used for any occasion.... here are some more I made for mothers day.
