If I remember correctly, this technique came from Joanne Swanson, one of the greatest Trash to Treasure miniaturists.

| Mark both sides of the foamcore at 1/2" intervals. |
 |
| Using an X-Acto knife, cut across the foamcore at the 1/2" marks, making sure to cut only through the top layer of cardboard and the foam. |
 |
| With the X-acto knife at an angle, run the bladeless end of the knife along each of the cuts. |
 |
| While I do it at 1/2" intervals, you could do it at 3/8" intervals if you choose. |
 |
| From the side. |

This method looks so great! I hope one day to get the chance to try it! Thanks for sharing! The porch is adorable and looks like such a fun project!
ReplyDeleteThanks Jodi. It's such a simple and effective process. A friend thought she would do it as a Christmas porch and put the pictures of her family's entries behind the window.
Deleteanother great little tutorial, Maureen. It will be perfect for my DSIL if she decides to try her hand at our much loved hobby. Cheers! - Marilyn D.
