Hi and thank you so much for stopping by today.... I hope that you had a chance to hop with us on the new release of Becca Feeken's newest Shadowbox dies. These are so fun to use and they really make a gorgeous gift for your family and friends. I can't say enough about them... they are so unique and so fun to make too.
Today i found some pretty new papers in one of my favorite color palettes- pink and black. The prints were the perfect sizes and not to big to overwhelm the intricate details in the dies that i picked. I made a 4x5 inch frame first with the black doted rose paper and then used the pale pink paper in the set to cut the "Callista Rectangle Shadowbox frame". It also comes with photo corners and that cute piece in the center that i stamped my sentiment in. I think it's one of my new favorite sets :)
I also wanted to share that sometimes your paper can be pretty thin so with projects like this you might want to cut the piece 2x and glue it together. I did that but left it at a slight shadow in a darker pink to make it pop. Now it's sturdy and can decorate the house for months ....
I stamped my sentiment higher on the card for the inside so that i could criss cross pink ribbons and a bow over the gorgeous Butterfly, bow and flower i finished it with at the bottom. And of course i had to add a few rhinestones and pearls. I will have to find a cute easel and paint it black to keep this out to remind me to "Start each day with a grateful heart". It's one of my favorite sayings.
Thank you so much for stopping by and be sure and check out the entire release here
Have a very nice weekend,
Teresa
