Do It Yourself: 3d Paper piecing
3d Paper Piecing Tutorial by Mariska van der Veer
Mariska teaches you how to give some dimension to your stamped and colored images! Follow along with her as she walks through her techniques for 3D paper piecing. * Stamp Suzi With Bunny by Wee Stamps for Whimsy Stamps (sentiment from Holiday Mini Postage Stamps) * Paper to stamp on (I use Paper Temptress Iridescent Cryogen White) * Ink to stamp with (I use Memento Tuxedo Black) * Acryl Block * Copic Markers (or another medium to color with) * Nestability die and Big Shot (or other way to trim image) * Precision scissors and/or craft knife * Memento Dual Tip Marker Tuxedo Black * Pergamano embossing tools and mat * White gelpen (mine is from a Dutch store named the Hema) * Olba Glue kit with syringes (this is a Dutch brand and isn’t for sale in the USA at the moment but Whimsy Stamps is considering selling this in the online store) * Pair of tweezers
Step 1: I stamp the image several times. I stamp one image with enough space around it to trim it into the shape I want, the other stamped images can be placed very close to each other. In this picture I have stamped the image five times but I ended up using seven stamped images.
