What is this type of art called?

I have no clue what to call this type of art. 3D? Any value to it? Both of these are by the same person.

I believe it's called paper tole, more recently referred to as 3D decoupage.

Both pieces are signed in very crude looking print Dottie. It is built up with what looks like just the same image over and over again to make it 3D. The images look like they are made out of some sort of plastic. I dont expect them to have any value just wanted to know what to call them.

I'll check out paper tole and 3D decoupage. Thanks
