Panoramic Christmas - Victorian fold out ChristmasCompleted by Pat Mottram

I printed the inside of this file onto 220 gm glossy photographic paper to give the card stability and the outside doors and decoupage onto 135 matte photographic paper, this was personal choice as I thought that the picture inside would look better on glossy paper but I preferred matte for the outside and the decoupage.

I fixed the door fronts using wet glue to allow for manipulation. I constructed the decoupage using silicone glue. Lastly I added Glossy Accents to the baubles and the lantern tops and glitter to the snowy areas.

This file makes a lovely colourful card, the image is slightly blurry giving it an authentic Victorian look. The first image shows the outside of the card, the second shows the inside and I have added a third in an attempt to show the depth of the decoupage which is substantial.
