DT post: Happy February Always Shadow Box

Dear Scrappers,

This is Veronica from www.vickyscrappingpassion.blogspot.com  sharing with you a quick gift I made for my father's birthday:

I used:

Graphic 45 papers:

PWP stamp: Calaberas & Corazones,

Some hear stickers,

A wooden shadow box from Hobby Lobby

Heart outline and happy photo frame dies, Teresa Collins for Craftwell:

DecoFoil in red and DecoFoil glue pen

First, I stamped the flaming heart images around the outer sides of the box using DecoFoil glue pen and added some red foil more or less successfully.

 I added a border from the seller stamp set around the frame, with less success 😜

I cut some frames for cuts using the Graphic 45 papers and the heart outline shape. I glued the frames to my pictures using scorch tape.

 I made two paper rossetes from paper border strips leftover from a previous project and added the hearts.

 I stamped 2 veneer shapes with the little heart stamp and DecoFoiled too. 

I added a piece of clear packaging material to a foam outline heart die cut and glued the heart outline from paper on the other side of the clear acrylic to make the heart shaker with some shaped sequins inside.

I made this shadow box for my father’s birthday, and wanted to make it special highlighting my children’s love for him.

I hope you enjoyed my shadow box and visit my blog.
