This pattern is optional. You can make everything. I add to the last step some photos for idea :) They are the original 'paper light box diorama'. They are not my crafts. :) My craft is just this project and video :)

All Layers a Little Big Than Previous.

Cut all layers for this method. Be carefull.

Use a 3D Box

I use a chocolate box for it :) You can use 3D frame. This is optional.

Cut the Cardboard.

Use a material for inter-layer height. I use a cardboard. This step is important, because if there is no distance between layers, the layers are unclear. Cut the cardboard 0.5 cm. This is enough for height.

Glue All Layers and Cardboards.

Turn the inner side of the box. Firtsly glue the biggest layer and add some cardboard liners for 4 sides. and again glue 2nd layer (this layer a little small than the biggest layer). and again cardboard liners and 3rd layer and again again again :) I used the hot glue gun. You can use any glue. But of course you know, hot glu gun is super fast :)

Paste the Last Layer of Pattern.

You can add a led light strip for back of box. This is optional but I recommend the led light strip.
