Fairy Love Shadow Box with Blank Page Muse

Hello Crafty Friends - Annie here I am Guest Designing for Blank Page Muse.

I am incredibly honored to be asked by Blank Page Muse to create a project for them. 

I created a Fairy Shadow Box.

Let's get started!

I printed the template twice onto kraft cardstock and cut it out.
Stamped and colored the Fairies and flowers.
I added some details with the Sakura Gelly Pen: Sparkle. I die cut some grass twice.

I used the Blank Page Muse: Woodgrain Background Stamp and stamped the trimmed template of the shadow box. I put adhesive on one side of the template where indicated.  

I pressed the two sides together. 

 

Next, I used my scoreboard and scored on the indicated lines.

 I then crease the edges so that they are crisp. I set it aside.

 

Then, I used the cloud stencil and Distress ink in tumbled glass to create a background for my shadow box.  I cut the cardstock down to 5"x 5" so that it will fit in the shadow box. I then adhered it to the shadow box.

Next, I adhered the grass onto the background sky panel in the shadow box. I put some adhesive onto the box portion of the box and rolled it up and press it into place. Making sure the grass bottom was completely covered.

 

Then, I repeated the process on the other sides of the box. Tape, roll and press into place. Take your time here the box can be a bit tricky.

I then adhered two of Blank Page Muse: Small Lilly Flower with Stem in the background along with the Blank Page Muse: Fairy Seated Long Dress. 

 

Next, I added the Blank Page Muse: Fairy Short Hair Standing to the outer edge of the box. 

Along with the die-cut grass border. I then adhered the last

 Blank Page Muse: Small Lilly Flower with Stem to the left outer edge of the box frame. Along with all the Blank Page Muse: Small 6 Petals Flower to the bottom edge of the box frame just overlapping the Blank Page Muse: Fairy Short Hair Standing.

 

Finally, I stamped the sentiment LOVE onto a stitched banner and adhered it to the top left corner along with one of the Blank Page Muse: Small 6 Petals Flower.

If you haven't heard of Creative Embellishments let me tell you a bit about them.

This the card I created using the combined products.

Let's Get Started!

I gathered all of my components. I gathered all the components to the card. 

 Along with my Xyron Creative Station Lite, Ms. Sparkle and Co. Silver ink, 

Doodles Paper Playground Sparkle Blend: Easter Basket,

Doodles Paper Playground Sparkle Blend: Spring Fling, and

Doodles Paper Playground Sparkle Blend: Birthstone Collection June: Pearl

I then ran Rinea Silver/Silver Starstruck Foil Paper, Rinea Blush/Blush Starstruck Foil Paper, my sentiment which is die-cut from Evaney's Stamps and Dies: Happy Easter Bunny

using Rinea Jade/Jade Starstruck Foil Paper and white cardstock twice.

Then, I inked all the edges of the Creative Embellishments: Bunny Shaker Set using 

Ms. Sparkle and Co. Ink: Silver Metallic - this is optional but I think it gives the bunny a finished touch. Next, I inked one of the open pieces from the Creative Embellishments: Bunny Shaker Set  with the Ms. Sparkle and Co. Ink: Silver Metallic and then I put some

Nuvo Glitter Embossing Powder: Silver MoonLight and heat set it.

  

Next, I pressed the Rinea Silver/Silver Starstruck Foil Paper onto the base of the 

Creative Embellishments: Bunny Shaker Set and trimmed away the extra paper.

 

Then, I adhered the other open pieces to the base of the

 Creative Embellishments: Bunny Shaker Set 

and set aside to dry with a stamping block on top.

Next, I adhered the Rinea Blush/Blush Starstruck Foil Paper to the card base. Then, I adhered the sentiment word Easter to the bottom left corner and the Bunny base to the right top corner of the card.

 

Then, I filled the shaker with a mixer of Doodles Paper Playground Sparkle Blends. I then adhered the acetate to the base along with the embossing top.

  

Next, I adhered the little bunny face to the shaker. I die-cut them from 

Rinea Ebony/Ebony Starstruck Foil Paper and Rinea Blush/Blush Starstruck Foil Paper using the 

Evaney's Stamps and Dies: Happy Easter Bunny. I then die-cut a carrot and butterfly from the Evaney's Stamps and Dies: Dig It using Rinea Turquoise/ Turquoise Foil Paper,

Rinea Marigold/Gold Glossy Foil Paper and Rinea Emerald/Emerald Starstruck Foil Paper.

I adhered the butterfly to the top left corner and the carrot by the Easter sentiment. I adhered the sentiment Happy just overlapping the bunny using a bit of foam adhesive.

 

For some finishing touches, I added a few Sparkle Blends 

to the butterfly, to the bunny's ear and a few tiny ones by the sentiment.

Now the Happy Easter shaker card is complete!
