Medallion Picture



Thought I would show my first attempt at using the Medallion stamp. I used red and black paper and card and gold embossing. I am still mastering embossing so used up more paper than was necessary lol. However here you can see a 6 layer Medallion also known as Mandala and with this design you can have up to 15 layers. I realised doign this today I am lacking in some papercrafting equipment so may have a little online spending later.:-)

Hiya Gina. You have a basic shape and then you are given a cutting guide and you cut round different areas and layer it on top of the next with each layer slightly smaller than the last. It can be layered from anything from using the basic shape alone to putting one more layer on or in this case anything upto 15. You can use any paper, glues, glitters etc to give an entirely unique look.:-)
