How to Make Handmade Roses Shadowbox

Shadowbox

Hi friends ,sharing a  framed shadowbox with  handmade roses I made as a home decor item for our home! One of my crafty resolution for this year was to create hand crafted projects for our home and I am happy I have been successful so far in this particular resolution!!

Handmade Paper Roses

Another crafty resolution was to use my existing craft supplies more. My Tim Holtz Tattered florals die had been neglected for quite some time so dug it up and created the shabby style rose using it! Can you spot the little bird hidden amongst the flowers?...It was made using air drying clay ....I love how a mix and match of different media can make a project so much more interesting to look at!

Stencilling

I am still continuing my love affair with Stencils! I used the Carabelle Studio Effet Bois stencil and Texture White [ it's a texturing medium but quality wise more fluid than Ranger texture paste] to add a wood grain texture on the die cut window. Then added gold embossing powder and heat embossed it. Once the embossed design was dry ..stained my faux wood with 2 shades of Distress Inks  for a 2 toned effect.

Stencil Technique

The window has 3 layers popped up on foam and love how it looks on the brick embossed wall!

Handmade Roses

More handmade roses on the lower part of the window and with a golden musical note and a bird's nest made with air drying clay!

What do you think my crafty friends...It is rather simple but with a touch of loveliness!
