In this interesting artwork, artist “Cardboard Creationism” intricately carves an entire deck of cards to reveal a 3D version of the pattern found on the back of a playing card.

Every time he cuts a card he makes it more detailed, eventually stacking all 52 back into the pack and creating a kind of ‘relief’. No glue or adhesive is used, just an X-Acto knife and a steady hand. You can see a timelapse of the process below along with some additional close-ups.
