Untouched Landscapes Diorama Card

I’m excited to introduce the Untouched Landscapes stamp set—one of the newest releases from Stampin’ Up!

Untouched Landscapes

Build your own scenic views with the Untouched Landscapes Stamp Set.
Featuring nature elements in an artistic linocut style, each piece can stand alone or be stacked together for layered backgrounds that move from close-up to faraway perspectives. Perfect for adding depth to handmade cards and paper projects.
This is a Two-Step Stampin’ set; it allows you to layer two or more images to create one final image with extra texture and dimension in the colors you want.
For this project, I paired it with one of my favorite techniques: creating a diorama card.
These dimensional cards are surprisingly easy to make and offer endless possibilities for showcasing scenic stamps and layered designs.

Untouched Landscapes Diorama Card How-to:

1. Create the Diorama Base

-Cut one piece of cardstock into 2 pieces measuring 5 1/2″ x 4 1/4″.

-Score both pieces on the short sides at 1/2″ and 1″ from each end.

-On one piece (the front), cut a window using a die or punch. I used a circle die.

Tip: If you plan to stamp images on the panels, stamp first and score afterward to keep your images uninterrupted by score lines.

Also, I did not cut the center circle out until after the images were stamped.  Instead, I traced the outline of the circle die on the top piece with a pencil, then stamped the images, using the traced circle as my guide.

-On the back (bottom) piece, stamp the sky in the center panel using Azure Afternoon.

-Stamp the mountains, landscape, and flowers on scrap Basic White cardstock using Mossy Meadow, Sea Foam Green, Crushed Curry, and Berry Burst. Fussy cut the images with scissors.

-Attach the images to the center panel using Dimensionals to add depth. Trim edges as needed to fit.

Note: Position your mountains slightly lower to ensure they remain visible through the window. If I did the card again, I would lower the mountains 🙂

2. Assemble the Diorama

-Fold both pieces along the score lines:

    • Top piece: valley, mountain, mountain, valley
    • Bottom piece: mountain, valley, valley, mountain

-Apply Tear & Tape Adhesive to the mountain fold on the bottom piece. Remove the backing and attach the top piece, aligning all edges carefully.

3. Finish the Card

-Add your greeting of choice. I used a sentiment from the retired Coneflower Celebrations set.
