Bio
My name is Andrea Vance I live in Florida and I am a Paper Tole 3D Craft Addict! (and Certified Paper Tole Teacher) Too many years ago I first saw the MOST Beautiful finished and framed Paper Tole pictures in England while working a Convention. I had seen Paper Tole before but these really got my attention and I wanted to learn how to create these wonderful and creative 3D Craft Pictures called Paper Tole (or 3D Decoupage or Shadow Box or Relief Art...just depends where you are in the world) My adult business life had always been involved working with "Affordable" Art Prints for Picture Framing and Post Cards for popular Tourist areas so I certainly had lots of prints to learn on. Over the years as I have gotten most of my good judgement from my bad Judgement... so... I thought maybe starting a Paper Tole Advise Blog could help others learn faster and be able to "skip" as much of the Learning Curve as Possible. There have many situations when Showing my Finished 3D Pictures people will be so impressed and in awe but actually feel that they personally could NEVER create this wonderful Art but through teaching and my own experiences with much confidence I can proudly proclaim...Paper Tole 3D Art is much more impressive than it is difficult! Most anyone can enjoy this craft. Not only is it relaxing, (after you know the basic techniques) but it also makes you think and use your mind. Although I have sold many Finished and Frame Paper Tole pictures I still believe that is best for making personalized special gifts for the people we love.
