Vintage shadow box

Hi everyone, I love anything vintage and anything to do with shadow boxes so I combined the two and came up with a vintage shadow box using some Graphic 45 Once upon a Springtime printed papers. I was lucky enough for Ange to send me some gorgeous new releases including this cute little shadow box.
I also used the CH441 Lamp Post Triple Small and the CH450 Iron Gate 1 Small which I covered in distressing powder.

I hope you all have a wonderful and crafty weekend!!

boyish vintage style

So many things in the scrappy world are geared towards girly vintage...having two boys I often find it hard to find scrappy goodies to suit my boyish layouts...however this is so easy to achieve with a bit of raw chipboard from Scrapware's fabulous range, including this gorgeous new doily frame 3 found here some fabbo vintage style letters (antique lowercase letters here) and my old favourite a mini crown here.
A little while ago we had a fabulous photo shoot in Toowoomba and I was lucky enough to receive this fabulous photo of my two boys in my package...perfect for this weeks vintage theme!



I have simply inked the edges of all the chipboard pieces in colorbox brown chalk ink, and then glued them to my page with silicone glue to add a bit of depth to my layout!

I hope I have inspired you to get out those boy photos and scrap them in vintage style...I would love to see them loaded up into our gallery.
