Melissa's Shadow Box

My first commissioned shadow box. Pretty Melissa wanted to do a frame for her wedding picture. Beautiful Prima's Annalee Collection papers - Avondale came in nicely. Fitting her theme to a T! Nice glorious blue with blooming roses.. Perfect for a wedding theme! I bought 2 pieces of this paper hoping to use it for my wedding album too!

A shadow box made up of mainly Prima products. Prima roses, Prima chipboard and Prima papers.. Added 2 Maya road pins to accentuate the roses!

I love her gown.. Notice the mosquito netting? I misted it with Tattered Angel's Moonlight glimmer mist and added blings to it for a fairytale like feel.

How do I ensure I do not use too much mist? I put the netting in a plastic bag and sprayed the mist in. 'Massage' the netting thru the bag to ensure it soaks up the excess mist.. Tadah! Nicely misted gown! Hope you like it!

Happy Birthday!

An LO done as a gift to my Aunt. Using Prima's Road Trip Collection - Road Trip papers. My aunt (dad's younger sister) and my dad shares the same birth date! Just a difference of 1 year. This year, there was an impromptu meet up to have dinner and celebrate together! Their very first time celebrating together in 54 years! Was planning to do an exact same LO for my dad to keep but captured some pics of Button that would suit the theme even better.

Love this little red car! Just like we took Dad's taxi to the restaurant (Red cabby) :) Check out the Longchamp bag in the car..

My mum gave the suggestion to place the photos like this! So happy that she joined in the fun of scrapbooking. I had initially placed the family photo on top and clutter the small photos at the bottom. Mum had suggested to put the main leads on top and trim the family photo. Love the effect!

Just have to highlight to you guys on the little doggy in the blue car.. Cute ain't it? Reminds me of the 2 dogs we left at home.. Poco and Button.. Poor guys don't get to celebrate with us.

Check out my sewing. My very first sewing on paper! 2 sets of this took me one full day. Firstly, using a pencil, trace the line/pattern you would like to sew. Next, using a paper piercer, pierce holes which you will use to sew. Erase all pencil markings after you have finish piercing. Sew as per normal using the holes punched. Tadah! Sewing on LO! Hope you liked it!~

My very last Websters' Pages paper.. Been hoarding the load of them for some time and I'm so glad to be able to use them for my pre-wedding photoshoot photos. Title came from the seam bindings I've used (bought from fellow scrapper Lynn.. Super talented beautiful babe).

I sewed part of the seam binding onto the LO.. My first attempt at sewing! Prima roses and pins from MWL.. Love them!

Hambly transparencies that I have been hoarding.. Yes! I'm a hoarder.. I love buying.. and can't bear to use to scrap.. but slowly de-stashing now.. Making space for new stuff to come! Don't you love the lace hambly?

Cheapo Angie is here again.. Used a 'J' to replace the letter 'L'.. can't bear to break into a new pack of thickers.

My little fairy on the little tortoise.. Simple simple LO that took me a month to complete.. for lack of inspiration and of habit of wanting to put loads of stuff on it.... Hope you like it!
