How To Make a Shadowbox Valentines Set - DIY Tutorial

Todays I'd like to share a Valentine's gift set created using a combination of my favorite products - Spellbinders dies, Maja Design papers and embellishing accents from Creative Embellishments. 

  

  My gift card set  has two elements, a decorative shadow box frame and a matching card.  The shadowbox frame was created with a cool new die from Spellbinders and Becca Feeken -   Spellbinders Adjustable Shadowbox Frame 1/2 inch - Becca Feeken.

 If you scroll down, I added a link to Becca Feeken's video tutorial on YouTube.  

The coolest thing about these frames is that they are totally adjustable and can be made in any size you desire.    

I paired the dies with the gorgeous raspberry pinks in the Maja Design Summertime collection . Below is a look at the papers I used for the Shadowbox.

Flowers Everywhere (B side)

The beautiful flirty bicycle image is from the die cut sheet in the Summertime collection.  

See those darling wood veneer hearts?  Those are from Creative Embellishments wood veneer hearts and I simply adore them because they are "conversation hearts" that I turn backwards so they become "all occasion" hearts.  

The flowers were custom made using another Spellbinders die, Spellbinders Cinch and Go IV Shadowbox (Flowers) by Becca Feeken - 

to customize and perfectly coordinate my project.

Next I made a matching card to accompany the Shadowbox Valentine.  

The card was made using the following Maja Design Summertime papers and the delicate Spellbinders Lace Hearts die.  Yes it's a very simple card and still graceful.

Rich wonderful layers!!!! The paper I chose for this is Stamperia's Roses Lace & Wood 12x12 paper collection .

Here is my second shadowbox.   I love the ocean so I made a seascape using Stamperia's Sea Land paper collection and Spellbinders newly released  Adjustable Shadowbox Frame 1/2inch - Becca Feeken.

In order to make this frame, I cut 4 pieces of paper each 5 inches long.  Square frames require all the papers to be cut the same length.

Sea Turtles Card

Under the Sea with Spellbinders

I think I am missing the sunshine where I live.  It's still snowing and cold.   My mind is completely centered on sunshine, warmth and peaceful ocean settings.  Those are my comfort thoughts. 

Spellbinders new dies helped me find my peace and tranquility.  

I have an assortment of Spellbinders dies that I used from  the  Elegant 3D Vignettes collection by Becca Feeken as well as from Tammy Tutterow - shown below:

How adorable are these sea turtles?  This is the beauty of the Graphic 45 - Sun Kissed  collection.  It's utterly delightful and captivates my heart. 

I fussy cut the sea turtles and mounted them on foam to make them come alive with dimension.  

   

Here are some cards that featured these same dies.

It's Spring - Time for Robins, Birdhouses, and Flowers

Spellbinder's Sew Sweet

I've been playing with the newly released dies at  Spellbinders  from designers Tammy Tutterow and Becca Feeken.  

Spellbinders introduces the   

Sew sweet Collection by Tammy Tutterow  and the Elegant 3D Vignettes collection by Becca Feeken.    

The die combo has been fun because both sets of dies allow the crafter to "build your own" fun, so to speak. 

Today I'm using the Sew Spellbinders Sweet Tweets birdhouse dies - a set of wonderful "build your own" dies with bird house, bird and various embellishments. 

The birdhouse is being embellished with custom flowers made from Spellbinders Cinch and Go Flowers III , part of the Elegant 3D Vignettes collection by Becca Feeken/Amazing Paper Grace.  This collection is all about the layering and dimension.  

Here are some close ups of my finished card using the dies:

Here is one last look at the finished card.
