3D Decoupage Dog in Cake

 

How to turn a digital stamp into a 3d decoupage image for a birthday card

I will show you in this blog how to turn one image into 4 images and then how to turn them into a 3D image for a birthday card.

I've used a digital image of a dog bursting out of a birthday cake that I bought from LOTV (you can get it here), however you could use a block or clear cling stamp and just stamp it 4 times ontop a piece of white card.

My digital stamp was an outline image but you can get pre-coloured images from LOTV if you do not fancy colouring in.

The hardest part of this card is knowing what part of the image you wish to layer. Just play around with your image - you need to get the parts of the image that are closest to you as the top last layers. As you are printing these images (or stamping them) yourself, you can always re-print them if you weren't happy with your first attempt. There is no real right or wrong, just go with what looks appealing to yourself.

Use a digital downloaded image to create your own decoupage birthday card

Another male oriented birthday card and once again I struggled to find an appropriate image amongst my stash! I had a hunt on the internet and found a lovely and very appropriate image.

If you use Google to search for digital stamps, there are loads to choose from. Some are free, some you have to pay a small amount for. Some are black and white images and some are already pre-coloured. (Please be careful of copyright issues)  In this case I found a pre-coloured image and paid a small amount to be able to download it. Once downloaded you can print to your hearts content. This particular download was in PDF format and came in varying sizes.

As you can keep printing those images, you can cut parts out of the different images to create the decoupage image.
