Shadow Box Card

I wanted to get used to posting about the latest challenge since I'll be joining the design team for Hand Stamped Sentiments next week. Very exciting!!

This week's challenge is to make a Shadow Box Card. I was inspired by the fact that I really WANT/NEED a vacation!! :) Hawaii or bust!!


Here is the side view to see the dimension:


Ingredients: Soft Suede, Old Olive and Very Vanilla Cardstock and ink. Plant Hope and Elements of Style Stamp Sets. Coluzzle Cutting system, Small oval punch, antique brads, hemp twine, linen thread and embossing folder.

Happy Stamping, Krista

I hear you on the vacation thought! Love the card and the way you popped up the palm tree branches. Those would be the perfect spot to hand a hammock! So excited for your "debut" next week!

I'm from Florida and love palm trees so I especially love your card. The embossing folder and hemp twine were just the perfect extras.

I love the beautiful serene color combo. The palm tree images and the colors conjure vacation images in my mind. I look forward to next week's challenge when you officially join us.
