How to make your images pop

Good morning! Today is my last day as guest designer for Bugaboo Digital Stamps and part of being a guest designer was to create a tutorial of something, so I am doing a tutorial on how to create 3-D images. I chose to use Bugaboo's Winter Goodies and printed it off three times. Since I have the three images I also test the look of different colours that's why the mug in one image is green which I didn't  like so didn't use.

I cut out all the images I want to pop up and then use a mat and stylus on them to create a curved look. You don't need the stylus you can use your fingers but on the smaller images the stylus comes in handy.

Once the images are cut out I take a black marker (water based) to the outside edges. I don't use alcohol markers the ink seems to absorb too fast on the edges and doesn't give a clean finish. 

Then I attach the images with either glue dots or clear dollar store glue pads

I love how this turned out. 

I've had a great time the past two months as a guest designer for Bugaboo what a great team, thanks Ladies!
