Assemble the 3D Layered Owl Mandala
After cutting out all the layered from the 3D layered SVG [free] place each design one on top of the other according to the arrangement shown below. This step is crucial as it will help you in figuring out the right placement of the layers.
This is the order in which you need to arrange the layers for the 3D layered owl SVG.
Next, flip the entire set so that it's wrong side up.
Now, take the bottom most layer, flip it over and keep it aside with RIGHT-SIDE up.
Now, it's time to add the foam squares.
Start adding foam squares on the WRONG-SIDES of all the layers.
Once you're done with one layer, keep it aside with the WRONG-SIDE up.
Repeat this step until you have added the foam squares on the WRONG-SIDES of all the layeres EXCEPT the bottom most layer.
Once you're done adding the foam squares to all the layers of the 3D layered SVG file [FREE], take the entire stack and flip it over, so that it's RIGHT-SIDE UP. We're going to work from the BOTTOM UP.
Make sure your bottom layer is RIGHT-SIDE UP. Remove the backing of the foam squares from the second last layer and place it on the bottom-most layer.
Repeat this step for each of layer after that.
This is how it should look like at the 5th layer.
Here's a shot after adding the sixth layer.
And here's the final shot after adding the top-most layer.
