Hello there… thank you for swinging by.
Today I would love to show you an other 3D project created with some recycled items and odds and ends I had left from previous projects and I couldn’t bear to throw out. I have found that I always find use for those little things to use later on.
Usually I try not to post more than 2 pictures but since there are so many details on this shadow box I show off a few more. On this picture you can see quite well all the Frantage I used. Made it just so much quicker than lining all the squares with patterned paper. I first painted the mini shadow box, which I recycled from one of the Prima wood embellishments with Distress Crackle paint and than added Frantage over it. I used some vintage hardware findings as hooks on the frame and looped a thick string through it so the frame can be hung or it just can stand on a shelf. You need a strong adhesive (Tacky!!) for that.
Most of the Findings are “left overs” from Prima marketing / Recollections or Melissa Frances. There is even a really odd shaped felt branch I could not toss but used on the frame you can’t tell how funny it looked.
There is some stamping going on with the Magnolia love background stamp onto a Doo Hickey Doily cut out and adhered right to the frame which gave me more “surface” to adhere my Tim Holtz metal embellishment from his Idea-ology line and of course Tilda.
The large vintage key was picked up at Michaels in the $1 bin. They always go fast. I think they would make awesome housewarming or wedding invites too.
other things used: Flowers by Prima, Distress ink,Heat tool, Versamark, Magnolia Doo Hickey banner, coloring: Copic, Stickles in Star dust and Platinum, mounting pads, ivory pins, brads
Thank you with Love
Claudia

Wow your shadow box is beautiful. I love the big key and frame you have on it. The frontage looks great and the shabby embellishing is soft and elegant. I think your leftovers have been used perfectly here. Have a great day,

This is totally adorable Claudia, so many sweet embellishments. I love all the Frantage - what a great idea to use that rather than line each box with paper. As for that darling Cupid, I love him ! your colouring is superb as always. It is a so very lucky person who will have this hanging on their wall !
