Home Decor Project: 3D Star Shadow Box

Hi Crafters!

This project is made of supplies that were just lying around my
craft room... even the chipboard covered strips that I used to make the Star-shaped shadow box and the cup and saucer that was my "test cut" for the Mother's Day Book that i made for my mom... although the one that I used in this shadow box project is a bit smaller.

Now you can imagine my craft room is:)

Anyway, I had so much fun embellishing the star because it was so sturdy! It may be hanged or stand on its own.... I left some small spaces for some small stuff or even photos to be added by the recipient :)

Gotta go!

Here's a project that I made few years back using 7 Gypsies packaging and products.
