This is a tutorial made by Beryl for her Mountain fold card with 3d tree, but you can use the same principal for all mountain fold cards.

Decoupage

These are very easy to make, all you do is cut out and lay them one on top of each other, using 2 or 3mm double sided sticky pads or silicone glue as dividers to get a great 3 dimensional effect.

Pyramid Sheets and Spiral Pyramid Sheets

Simply cut out the rectangles and layer them one on top of each other using 1mm or 2mm double sided sticky pads or silicone glue as dividers.

Use the largest rectangle as the base and build directly on top of it.

The reason they are called pyramid sheets is if you turn the card on its side and look at the finished product it looks like a pyramid.

Spiral pyramids work the same way only this time you have to twist the cut outs slightly to line them up with the original image. The finished product is a twist pyramid that looks very professional indeed.
