Shadowbox



Good Morning to all,

 I am here to show you my daughter's shadowbox frame. I have had this frame for a couple of years and had another layout in it. I was never completely happy with it.  I had always wanted to keep the ballet shoes , leotard etc....   The previous layout I did had the ballet shoes and skirt behind the photo.  Awhile ago I saw a shadowbox here on Pinterest  with the photo behind  and the ballet shoes in front and I knew then , that this is how I had to do mine. The skirt is behind the photo, but the ballet shoes are what I really wanted to feature.  The photo was taken with an old camera of mine and therefore very grainy.  (However I do love the photo)
The words on the photo Read  'I think', 'I feel', 'I Can', 'I Am'   'Madeleine' 


I am now on facebook. I have tried to put the button on my sidebar without success. If anyone can tell me how they have done it, it would be a great help. If you want to find me on facebook, I have included a link here. "Craft Until Your Art's Content" and you can find me that way. In the mean time I will try and figure out how to link up with facebook.

Have a great week

Kelly

    1. Thanks, Vickie.
      I have Madeleine's name done in all the letters. It's nice to use the M again. Sometimes, after things are made , after a while you take them for granted.

    1. Thank you, Monica. It's nice to keep these little memories. I just wish I had thought of it earlier. I would have then kept baby clothes that I loved. I really hated parting with their clothes that I loved.
