As you can see in the picture below, I die cut the paper twice, to create both the front and the back of my shadow box.
I then used some of the dies in the Lawn Fawn Shadow Box Card Ocean Add-on to die cut some wave panels out of another design from the Rainbow Dot-Stripe Petite Print paper pad by Doodlebug.
Using another die from the same set, I also die cut an opening out of one of the two halves of my shadow box.
At this point I could start assebling the shadow box. I started by gluing the waves inside the front of the shadow box. You probably can’t tell fromt the picture, but the only part that is actually glued down are the little flaps on the sides of the wave borders.
I adhered the borders at different heights and depths in my shadow box front, in order to create more interest.
…and then I closed them on top of each other. At this stage I also glued the other side of the wave borders to the shadow box.
I stamped my sentiment on a banner that I die cut out of some white cardstock with one of the dies in the Shadow Box Card Ocean Add-on and I adhered it to the top of the shadow box.
Before leaving I wanted to show you one more picture…I really love this type of card! It’s easy and quick to make, you can flatten it out and put it in an envelope to send it in the mail, and the recipient will be amazed for sure!
