A Beautiful Shadow Box Share

Hello friends,
I'm back from the Stampin' Up! Leadership and super excited to share all the ideas and inspiration I got from Leadership with you all.  I want to begin by offering you a chance to enter into a drawing to win some Stampin' Up! goodies.  

Here is how it will work, place any order through me and over my Online store until February 14, 2015 and enter this (Hostess Code V3BRWRBX) for a chance to win the drawing. Please make sure you click on APPLY Hostess Code before checking out otherwise you won't get entered into the drawing and I won't be able to change it on my end.  Also make sure my name appears as your demonstrator.  (Please do not use the Hostess Code if your order is $150 or more) If you have any questions feel free to email me at nlpimentel@aol.com

 I want to share this beautiful project my friend and roomie Rosemarie Diehl gave me at Leadership. I would like to share all the Stampin' Up! products she used from the Occasion's and Sale-A-Bration Catalogs to create this gorgeous Shadow Box.  This is one of the shadow boxes she and I got at an event a long time ago in which I made this Shadow Box with my son and loved to decorate.

I just loved how Rose chose the colors and OMG! look at that gorgeous butterfly!  It's the New "Butterflies Thinlits Dies" from the Occasion's Catalog.  Don't forget that Sale-A-Bration is still in affect which means that for every $50 order you place before tax & shipping you will EARN a FREE product from the Sale-A-Bration Catalog.

Rose also used the Best Year Ever Designer Paper which she got for FREE with her $50 order.  Don't forget to use your Hostess Code when you place an order.  Thank you Rose for this beautiful gift and for being my roomie!!

Hello friends,
Today is my day to create a project for Decorate to Celebrate and the challenge calls for a Valentine's Day theme box or birthday party decoration (no cards please).  So get crafting and join our challenge over at Decorate to Celebrate!

This is my very first Shadow Box that I've made and I really like how it turned out and I will definitely be making some more shadow boxes. I thought this photo was perfect for a Valentine's theme.

This picture of my son was taken days before his birthday in

December 2013 and so, I had to add his age to this 7 Gypsies Shadow Box and his first name initial. Since the theme is Valentine's you know I had to add some hearts all over:)  I 

tried to keep simple and boyish.  I almost added some 

rhinestones but I held back LOL!!

A close up of the edges as I sanded and sponged the edges with some Early Espresso.  I trimmed the photo about a 1/4" on one side and the bottom then added some glue dots to adhere to the box.  I then used the Square Collection Framelits and trimmed them a little to fit into the smaller boxes. The letter "D" was die cut using some retired alphabet dies set from SU.  I did die cut the letter D six times and adhered over and over on top of each other to add some dimension and height.  What do you all think?

You know I had to add two of my FAVORITE FREE items 

from the Sale- A- Bration catalog which ends March 31, 2014.  

I used the Banner Blast Stamp Set and the Banner Punch from Sale-A-Bration which again you can earn for FREE with 

every $50 order through me HERE.
