Welcome to today's creative journey! 🌿 In this video, I will show you step-by-step how to create a stunning 3D "window style" art journal page inspired by a magical fairy forest. We will be doing some fussy cutting, blending with Distress Oxides and building dimensional layers using foam tape.
If you loved this 3D diorama effect, don't forget to use the new YouTube "Hype" button (if available to you!), hit subscribe and let me know in the comments which element of the magical forest is your favorite?🤗
