Remember Paris Altered Shadow Box

Hello everyone!  So glad to see you today. I have a fun little shadowbox project I made using my Silks Acrylic Glaze and Radiant Gel perfect paints from ColourArte, as well as these fabulous laser cut chipboard pieces from Gina's Designs.

My idea all started with this small wooden shadow box from my dollar store.  I bought several of these, so you may be seeing more of them in my projects in the future.   I had so much fun with this, so let's get started.



I made a video tutorial to show you how I put this all together.  I hope you enjoy it.

                          

I have included a few closeups of some of the various sections.

    1. Thanks, Kim. Gina has so many choices it would be hard to choose, much less remember. LOL Thanks for your sweet comments! XO
