Super excited to bring to a wonderful creative 3D card idea using amazing products from Paper House Productions and Xyron!!! Below is a step out tutorial I have created to share with you how I made my "Travel to France" 3D card!!! Be sure to visit the link above to being this awesome creative journey!!! Today I take you to France!!!!

Products Used

1 Sheet of Color Card Stock
Paper from the Paper House Generations Paper Pack
3D Paper House Scenes Stickers Paris
Paper House Cardstock Stickers France
Xyron Mega Runner
Pop Dots

Step 1: I used the Side Step card tutorial from a wonderful blog called "Out Daily Bread" Find the tutorial here  Then I used the 3D stickers Paris and used a product called UN-DO. This product can be bought at your local craft store and or wal-mart. It is an adhesive removal product that will leave your images and papers untouched and clean while removing adhesive, pop-dots and more. So I separated all of the layers of the sticker!! Find a video review on this product on my youtube channel HERE

Step 2: Get the paper from the Generations Paper Pad and select the tree background. I fussy cut the some of the grass scene and tree scene from the paper and places them onto the card bases using my Xyron Mega Runner.

Step 3: Begin stacking the elements from the separated 3D sticker Paris and using the Xyron Mega Runner adhere them to the card as you see above. Also you see above me using the Paper House Cardstock Stickers (France) and adding the elements as the sign and the house. I them took additional pop-dots and fussy cut more grass and layered the pieces in front of the house.

Step 4: From the same Paper House Cardstock Sticker Set, I chose the title France and fussy cut it out on a piece of cardstock and them pop-dotted the piece to the card!!!

That is it!!! This card makes me feel like I'm in France and could have not done it without some amazing products!!!!

I hope you embark on this journey with us and gather some amazing inspiration from the designers all week!!! I super excited and I THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! for stopping by for another great and inspiring tutorial!!!!

Until Next Fabulous Project

Step 1 You will first prepare you frame by painting 2 coats of White Gesso on the the frame and then adding drops of the Lindy's Stamp Gang Fuzzy Navel Peach Spray all over the frame. Take your Gold Acrylic Paint Dauber and add gold around all the edges!! Then take the Teresa Collins Damask Stencil and ink in various places along the frame.

Step 2 Cut 2 pieces of patter paper in the length of 12 inches and the width will be determined according to the frame you choose.The top half rosette was cut 2 x 12 inches. With my frame My other piece was cut at 3 3/4 inches wide by 12 inches long.

Step 3: Score both pieces of paper at 1/4 inches and then fan fold the pieces.

Step 4:  Glue the half rosette to the top of the of the other scored piece of paper. Then Cut to size from another pattern piece paper a back for the frame.
