My first shadow box... easy peasy! I just took 2 pieces of cardstock (colored with Distress Inks) and scored at each end 1/2" then 1" folding in for my base. Then I decided to emboss the back with a butterfly ef, THEN stamped. (Yeah, coulda thot that out a bit better!) I decided a piece of board pp would be cute on the front, so I adhered that then ran it through my Grand Caliber using the Dies Dr Sonja had given Alana (thanks again Sonja!). I used the same dies to create my "window trim". Added the butterfly cut, pearls, sentiment and I was done! It took me a while to create, but I was just changing my mind all over the place. Well, in the end I like it and I hope Lillian does too! TFL
