Festive Shadow Box






Here is wishing you all a very Merry Christmas and a happy and prosperous New Year in 2013 !!

It's been a long time since I posted on my blog and it has been sadly neglected.  The gap has been caused by major re-furbishments to my home which caused havoc.  I still can't find most of my craft stuff .......... it is all there but in a mish-mash of boxes etc.  I will get this sorted in the New Year and I very much need my craft fix again as I have really missed it.

This little 6 x 3 inch shadow box and stand is made from chipboard and contains no stamping at all.









Papers used are from Prima (North Country 6 x 6 stack), trimmed and applied in the compartments as shown.  The box was given a couple of coats of bronze acrylic paint beforehand.








Various embellishmnets were added to give a bit of dimension, some stickers, a brad and metal charms.







Some maroon gingham ribbon was added around the box and some ice Stickles added around the front edges.

Festive Shadow Box




In the same theme as my last post and using the same papers here is a mini shadow box book which I have decorated in a festive way. All papers used are from Cosmo Cricket 'Dear Mr. Claus' 6 x 6 inch paper pad (3d Jean).






The outside of the box has been embellished with some elements cut from the paper along with a red satin bow and hat pin (The Ribbon Girl)






The inside boxes have a variety of papers, wooden snowflakes, ribbon, metal charms, felt shapes etc.  Yes, the little Christmas tree is from my cake featured in the last post so it's 'waste not want not' recycling in action !!






The internal frame was given a generous coating of pale green transparent glitter applied with PVA glue.






I have used Distress Stain in forest moss and barn door along with the corresponding Distress Inks to colour edges and raw chipboard surfaces.









Really enjoyed making it !
