I'm doing Lydia's challenge: Paper Tole
This was the most fun and the first time I've tried it. I will surely do it again. It takes a bit of time...so worth it. You stamp your image twice. I colored and cut out the images I wanted to make 3D, used my stylus to round them, and then used Glossy Accents over each one. After drying, you should place the pieces on your other stamped image. I did the star, all snowmen, and the one glove.
Here is the tutorial and video: 3D Paper Piecing Tutorials at Splitcoaststampers
