The effect is made by layering the pictures or parts of the pictures. You can do it from any picture if you have enough copies and a steady hand for cutting out. I have a friend who teaches craft and she uses images from wrapping paper.

The sticky pads are available most places, craft shops, online craft stores even supermarkets.

I did it on normal paper and it worked but you could use something a bit thicker, not card though I think that might be too thick.
