I created this diorama card for my Dad for his birthday using the Mountain Air stamp set, coordinating Majestic Mountain Dies and Diorama Dies from Stampin’ Up!
The Diorama Dies make a perfect frame for a diorama scene.
Here’s How:
1.Cut frame in card base (Night of Navy) using one of the Diorama Dies.
2. Cut a border (Pacific Point) for the opening by nesting two of the Diorama Dies, one inside the other.
3. Create the landscape scene:
-For this card, I created a paper towel background using a piece of paper towel that I had used to clean stamps. I smoothed it out and separated the plys. Then, I attached one ply to a piece of card stock backing so it would be easy to trim the towel as needed. You can see more of my paper towel backgrounds Here.
-I stamped the mountains from Mountain Air on Basic White card stock using Gorgeous Grape ink. Then, I cut them out using a die-cut machine and the coordinating Majestic Mountain Die. I stamped the moon using Daffodil Delight ink and punched it using a 1″ circle punch.
-I stamped the trees/landscape on Old Olive card stock using Mossy Meadow ink and cut them out using the coordinating Majestic Mountain Die.
4. I built the landscape on the paper towel background using Mini Dimensionals to pop up the different elements.
5. Attach the paper towel/landscape scene to the back of the diorama opening.
Done! You’ve created a Diorama Card!
6. Now, to finish the card:
-Stamp greeting. I used the Happy Birthday greeting from Waves of Inspiration stamped on a Basic White card stock scrap using Gorgeous Grape ink. I cut it out using the coordinating Waves Die.
-Cut trees out of Old Olive and Mossy Meadow card stock using Majestic Mountain Die.
-Add the greeting to the front of the card using Mini Dimensionals to pop it up. Attach the trees to the front. Add Pastel Pearls to complete.
I hope you’ll try the Diorama Card Technique a try.
