MFT & Friends - February 2021

My project for today’s New Product Launch celebration is a cute box card featuring the adorable Balloon Besties stamp set along with the Shadow Box Die-namics.

AL handmade - My Favorite Things - Balloon Besties stamp set and Shadow Box Die-namics

I started to work on this card by creating the shadow box structure. Creating stunning dimensional scenes have never been so easy and the Shadow Box Die-namics makes it a piece of cake! :D
I die-cut the box structure out of Chantilly Cream card stock and stamped a cute pattern on it using the smaller images from the Balloon Besties stamp set.

Next, I die-cut the front window from one of the two base pieces. Since the new Shadow Box Die-namics is perfectly compatible with the full range of the Outside the Box shelf die options, I used the Outside the Box Clouds Die-namics to create the inner shelves and a patterned paper panel – from the Buffalo Brights Paper Pad – to create the background.
This amazing shadow box folds flat to a perfect A2 size in order to fit an envelope, but pops up immediately when it comes out of it, revealing all its layers and dimension. Such fun!

I stamped the cute critters from the Balloon Besties stamp set and used the coordinating Die-namics to cut them out before coloring them with Copic Markers.
I heat embossed the sentiment on a strip of Summer Splash Prestige card stock and adhered it on the lower part of my box card.

Finally, I added the high-flyers crew inside my box card, creating a sweet dimensional scene!

I love your shadow box using the cloud dies, and it was such a good idea to stamp a design on the outside!

Clever use of patterned paper for background in your shadow box.

I really enjoy your color palette. The cream cardstock, the brown ink, the pastel blue in the background, they all create a very sweet birthday scene that has a lot of serenity to it. So lovely.
