DIY White Winter Papercraft Frame

Christmas· Paper Crafts· Paper Decorations· Winter

Today’s project would be so much fun for a girl’s craft night! Each person would need die cuts, a few sheets of cardstock and a wooden panel to create their winter papercraft picture frame. Everyone could also bring a few different die cuts of their own so you can swap and share different designs.

Each project is going to turn out looking different, so there’s no way to go wrong with this. It might be just paper layering, but the end result is a stunning 3D winter scene.

Here are the supplies you will need to create this unique glittery deliciousness.

Supplies needed to make your own DIY winter papercraft frame:

  • Unfinished Wood Painting Panel
  • White Glitter Cardstock: 12 x 12 inches (2 sheets per project)
  • Craft Dies:
    • Christmas Village with Snow Layers
    • Evergreen Tree Border
  • TomBow Mono Dual Tip Permanent Multi Liquid Adhesive
  • Mounting Adhesive Squares
  • Rubber Embossing Mat
  • Cricut Cuttlebug

Begin by painting your wooden art board white and allow the paint to fully dry.

Cut two sheets of your 12″ x 12″ glitter cardstock in half so each piece measures 6″ x 12″.

Lay out your dies on your die cut machine platform and try to maximize space.

I originally cut some die clouds to use as snowbanks but decided during the process to free cut my own snowy hills.

Following the manufacturers directions for your die cut machine, cut your shapes from the glitter cardstock. Make sure the glitter side of the paper is face down on your die.

The village die is a cut and emboss die. Once the image is cut, leave the cardstock inside the die, and run it back through your machine with a rubber embossing mat. The mat will force the cardstock into the detailed areas of the die, and emboss them.

Don’t look at my rubber mat! It is hammered because I use it SO much!

You can see all of the detail that the embossing mat creates!

Cut several duplicate pieces of the village and tree border. Remove the cardstock from the dies and set the pieces aside.

Take one of your 6″ x 12″ pieces of cardstock, and lay it on the inside of your wooden art panel. The 6″ size will fit the width perfectly, but you’ll need to trim it lengthwise. Adhere the cardstock with some adhesive. I like using Tombow Mono because it dries quickly and clear. Once your panel is in place, smooth the cardstock with a bone folder. Allow the backing to set, and then you can start layering your scene!

Begin by adding the rooftop snow detail to the village dies.

Then get creative! Cut apart some of the tree border trees and use foam adhesive to make them pop!

You can also cut the bottom of the trees to make them look more natural.

Free hand cut a 6″ x 12″ piece of cardstock width-wise into a wavy hill.

Adhere your tree border to the wavy layer.

Add dimensional adhesive to the back of the layered strip.

Add your first layer to your shadowbox!

Continue to create layers, using die images and dimensional adhesive.

Here are some tips. Dimensional adhesive will peel off of the glitter cardstock. When you insert a layer, you will want to gently pull up the dimensional adhesive, and shimmy the new layer side to side, to slide it underneath the layer below.

When the new layer is in place, smoosh the dimensional adhesive back down.

Using dies is a really easy way to create dimension in a project. You can cut as many layers as you like, that will perfectly match up.

I wanted to pop the trees by the house, so I die cut additional images, cut them out at the bottom to look more natural, and adhered them over the matching tree on the border die.

If you see a weird spot while you’re layering (right hand side), just cover it with a tree!

Continue filling gaps until you’re happy with your winter papercraft design. Secure any extra pieces with additional dimensional adhesives and you’re done!

This winter papercraft is just as much fun to display as it is to make. I hope you enjoy your glittery winter wonderland!
