Description

My friend loves doing puzzles so I made this for her birthday, almost all of the supplies are stuff just lying around the house. (But I went to dollar tree for some of mine)

Instructions

  1. Small 1 1318466928

    First use some kind of photo software to make a stencil type picture, you will need two of them for the 3 D effect. I used photoshop and the photocopy effect also my printer was low on ink but it didn't matter because I used marker to fill in the picture in colored areas. First part I did black.

  2. Small 3 1318467136

    Second picture I did red, and if your wondering I did 2 5'7s on a page since I am going to be using an 8 by 10 frame and wanted to add a little more. Also I printed on a glossy photo paper.

  3. Small 4 1318467242

    Next you get a cheap puzzle, I got this chunky Dora one from my local dollar tree. But you really don't need a whole puzzle any pieces lying around your house will do.

  4. Small 5 1318467308

    Next you trace a couple of pieces on to one of your pics. (One pic will be cut up for puzzle pieces and the other will stay intact to be the background)

  5. Small 7 1318467388

    Cut out the shape and then glue them to the backgound pic. I used a hot glue gun because the pieces were heavier.

  6. Small 9 1318467479

    Place them in alternating places for more appeal to the puzzle 3D effect.

  7. Small 10 1318467540

    Im doing the frame background red so I used my black sharpie marker to color some black pieces.

  8. Small 11 1318467602

    Since my pieces are bigger I colored the back of the frame with red spraypaint instead of doing a cardstock background.

  9. Small 12 1318467688

    Center your pic and put some random black pieces to the red background. Again I used the hot glue gun for attatching everything.

    Now put it in your frame and enjoy the special 3 D Puzzle Photo. I wasn't going for a vampirish look but I guess it came out alright.
