The paper tole technique is one of my all time favorites, and I got to use it for this week's CAS challenge. You basically stack an image or part of an image on top of itself using dimensionals as spacers which produces a great 3D object. In my design, the butterfly was punched and set with dimensionals 4 times. I added nailheads to the card and draped it with SU organdy ribbon.
Thanks for taking a look!

Stunning! Thanks for explaining the technique for popping something to make it more dimensional. I just really like everything you put into this card, the butterfly, the butterfly trail and the silver baubles all look great with your choice of stamped images. Excellent!
