Creative Park Santa Claus's House

A funny little, but dense, house from Creative Park.

I still make some mistakes with flat surfaces, among other things, probably I have to wait they set well under a weight... so, instead of Santa Claus's House, I call it "my Sandy Claws's house, Tim Burton style".
At least, when my fair lady see it, she wanted it as a gift!!!

That's really nice! I've considered having a go at this one, but have been put off by the amount of the most expensive liquid in the world it would take to print it out, so I'm pleased to see it come to life here.

As for layering paper and keeping it flat, I always use a spirit-based glue and keep it under a heavy object at least overnight. My experience is that when using water-based glues the laminate will curl no matter how long you keep it pinned down. I rest my case.

Thank you! I'll tell you a secret: I had it laser printed at a local print center, spending about 5/6 €.

You never stop learning. I will try this type of glue (I've never heard about it ).

Sorry asettico; I didn't express myself very well; by "spirit-based" I meant "not water-based". A clear contact glue, such as UHU all purpose adhesive, does it for me. As long as you make sure the edges of the piece to be layered are well covered with glue, it doesn't matter much about the central area; a lattice of glue streaks is enough here.

This... is what we find.

Oh, I see...
I was already looking for some spirit-base, alcohol-based, soul-based, gospel-based glue... nothing, but only something for naval construction, that I considered slightly excessive...

I already have some UHU Twist, that I abandoned, because when set it becomes fragile and some joints can break (actually happened). However, for laminating flat surfaces should work fine.

Really thanks for the hint!

I hear you! I was thinking about having a crack at the Canon Christmas Market, but that's a lot of printing. Miniature world (Christmas / market) - Miniature world - Toys - Paper Craft - Canon Creative Park
