Hello crafty friends! Tracy here, and today I’m sharing what I used to create this pretty little unicorn layout with loads of dimension. Here are all the details on how I created by Dimensional Unicorn Layout.

Add Dimension Like a Pro

I love to create layouts packed full of texture and dimension. With that comes some tricky things to adhere. Here are some tips. I started creating this layout by tracing a circle (you can use a place or a bowl) in the middle of the background patterned paper. I then used different coordinating coloured pearls to create the wreath around the layout. Some of these were self adhesive, but all of the coloured pearls I had to adhere myself and I used Adhesive Dots Micro.

In the bottom right hand corner of my Dimensional Unicorn Layout I added a large clusters of dimensional flowers. For all of the stems, leaves and flowers I used Adhesive Dots Medium to add them. Sometimes I used more than 1 Adhesive Dot Medium on the flowers, depending on how uneven the backs of them were.

Mat the photo in white cardstock and then cut similar sized pieces of patterned paper that are used as the photos backdrop. I off-set each slightly and adhered them to the background using a combination of Crafty Foam Tape White and E-Z Runner® Ultra Strong Refillable Dispenser. Add the matted photo to the patterned layers using Crafty Foam Tape White.

Finally I added the laser-cut ephemera. I wanted these pieces to stand out from the layered patterned paper in this dimensional layout. So I often used Thin 3D Foam Squares White Mix combined with 3D Foam Squares White Mix, this keeps dimension between all layers.
