Creating 3D-cards, my new exciting hobby!

Very nice! Those are great!

Those are lovely, Lut!

And to those saying such careful cutting is beyond your abilities, if you have the time, I bet you could do it! It is all muscle skills, and like any muscles, repetition and practice are what is required. I bet Lut would agree, and tell you the more of them she does, the better at it she gets!

Lut, they're all beautiful. Thanks for sharing them with us.

So how long does it take to make one?

Oh Lut, your cards are just beautiful!

Wow Lut, they are very beautiful.

Every one I've seen so far is
gorgeous. Congratulations on your art skills.

They all look very professional!

My mum makes cards like this, She sells hers on Ebay. People love to bid on the animal cards and when you put them in sets.

One thing my mum does is personalises peoples cards. My friends has a dog who is her entire life so she got a photo of the dog and made a 3d birthday card for her. The card is about 6 years old but she still has its up and framed on her fireplace.

I bet your cats would make beautiful models!

It depends on the difficulty of the project! The easier once take 2 hours, the most difficult one I ever made took me 5 hours

It is all worth it

easy

moderate

difficult

Those are great!

Isn't it so much fun? I have a question though, what does that writing mean that is on the bottom of each card?

I absolutely adore the baby card.

I love making cards. 3D cards are great. Everytime I go to the craft store I stock up on 3D stickers. Here's a card I just made for my boyfriend. It's not too 3D, but cute none the less. I think it's so much nicer to make something for someone. It's from the heart.

Those are gorgeous, Lut! Very pretty!

**Husky_mom** · 03-16-2008, 07:16 PM

really nice!! *claps*

my mom used to do something similar but for framing... it gets easier once you get the hang of it... and it´s pretty cool and unique.... even if you do the same 100 times you can´t cut them the same each time...

can´t wait for this year´s swap..... seems we are getting craftier

I might try something different too
