BIRTHDAY CARD: Making a shadow box using Balloon Besties

Hey crafty friends, today is my birthday! So what better card to share than a birthday card! This one is a shadow box, it's truly so simple to create when you have this die by MFT!

I started by assembling the shadow box, using the Shadow Box die and the Outside the Box Clouds dies by MFT. I used different blue colored card stocks and acetate. 


I colored in all the images I wanted to use from the Balloon Besties from MFT using my Copic Markers. Once everything was coloring in, I used the matching dies to cut them out. Next, I added glossy accents onto the images, so that this could dry before adding all the pieces into the shadow box. 

  • Bunny with balloons: W6, W5, W3, W2, W1, W0
  • Bunny: E55, E53, E51, E50 / E13, E11
  • Fox: E47, E44, E43, E42, E40 / E13, E11
  • Little racoon: W8, W6, W5, W3, W1
  • Green: YG06, YG03, YG00
  • Blue: BG49, BG23, BG11
  • Yellow: YR04, Y38, Y17, Y15 

When everything was dry, I could add everything into the box. I decided to not add a sentiment on the front, but I made a panel to add a little note on the back with a lovely sentiment and an extra image. I hope you like it! xxx
