I am very lucky to be part of a tight-knit group of cardmakers on Facebook. When one of us finds a new-to-us idea, we share links, then challenge each other to attempt the card technique in question.
Recently someone found these fabulous cards, and a video on how to make them. I am talking about Diorama cards.
They are a little fiddly, and they do use slightly more cardstock than a regular card, but they are worth the extra effort for someone special.
This card was my first attempt. I had to watch the video a second time as I was having some difficulties, but it turned out okay in the end.
From the outside, it looks like a regular card, but when you open it, it's a whole different story:
There is so much scope for these cards, and you really could get carried away if you let yourself.
If you would like to see the video instructions, or would like to view a masculine version of this card, go here.
Thanks for looking!
Til next time,
