Shadow Box card

Hi friends,

Hope you all are enjoying crafting and making something for our Anything goes challenge this month.

I am Sabiha again this week with my new inspiration post, Its a SHADOW BOX CARD..... made using Expressions crafts beautiful "HOT AIR BALLOON STAMP SET"

When I recently saw a shadow box card video by talented crafter "Jennifer Mecguire" I was sure that I am going to make one such card and the very next thought was stamp set by Expressions craft.

This stamp set was just perfect to make this card and I am proud to use such best quality Indian brand stamps...

Lets first have a look at my card ....

Hope u all guys like my card and now it must be clear how a shadow box card looks.

I stamped few balloon and cloud images from the stamp set on a smooth water colour card stock coloured and fussy cut them.

Took a 8 1/2 by 11 1/2 card stock for the card. Cut two pieces to make 5 1/4 by 8 1/2 size two card stocks. One serves the base card and another for the box.

I took one extra card stock little smaller than the inner half to make the skyline background.

For the front cover I made clouds using a hand cut stencil from acetate sheet and adhered the Balloon and clouds to make a scene.

Added the sentiment using archival black ink.

For the inner box card I made the box, adhered it to the card and before that adhered the background skyline stencilled image to give the depth to the card.

As you can see I have adhered the coloured balloons on the box as well as inside the card.

The scene was ready in no time and it looks so beautiful.

As I wanted to complete the sentiment I added "With you" on the inside of the card.
