Welcome back and today I am auditioning to become a Brand Ambassador for Graphic 45.  I have a shadow box that I have used Floral Shoppe patterned paper.  This paper is quite busy and I have tried to recreate the effect of cascading flowers over the tag in the shadow box.

Materials Used:

Graphic 45 Floral Shoppe Collection

iCraft Shadow Box – Kraft

iCraft corner wooden embellishments

Scissors

Art Glitter Dries Clear glue

Foam tape

Nuvo Embellishment Mousse – Seaspray, Indian Gold

Finnabair Mechanicals Tin Hearts

Finnabair Vintage Mechanicals – Flowers Small

Rosie’s Studio Metal Trinkets

Instructions:

Assemble the shadow box.  Colour with the Nuvo Embellishments Seaspray Green and Indian gold to create the shiny patina effect.

Cut a piece of patterned paper 3 1/2″ x 5″ and adhere to the centre of the box.  Add the tag to the bottom right as shown with foam tape.  Add a half flower and heart embellishment to the bottom left of the tag.  Add a metal flower to the top left.

Colour with the wooden corner embellishments with Nuvo Embellishments Seaspray Green and Indian gold to create the shiny patina effect.  Adhere to the top left and the bottom right corners.  Add a small metal dragonfly to the bottom right as shown.

 

Fussy cut the flowers and sprays from the patterned paper and layer inside the shadow box cascading down over the tag as shown.  I have used 2 layers of foam to create the dimension.

 

Fussy cut the large spray of flowers and adhere to the top left with foam tape over the corner embellishment.  Fussy cut another couple of sprays of flowers and adhere to the frame under the large spray as shown with Dries Clear glue.

Add the wooden ‘Inspire’ word to the top right under the large spray.

To finish off add the bee on the bottom left and the heart on the top right under the word.

Happy Crafting
