Book shaped shadow box tutorial


Book shaped shadow box tutorial
This easy and fabulous project can be done with a solid cardstock 30*30 cm. piece and some scrap papers that left from your previous projects. So here it is- step by step easy papercrafting project


Step 1

All you need now is 4 12*12 pieces of cream heavy weight solid cardstock, a metal ruler and a bone folder. If you have any scoring device- use it, but you really don't need it for the scoring of this project
Score all 4 cardstock using your metal standard ruler for your scoring size- it's just the best measurement ever for this project

Step 2

Also 3 scored paper were enough for this single project, if your use four of them, you will have products for another small shadow box with absolutely no leftovers
Cut 2 folded cardstock to 8.5'' size and 2 others to 5.5'' size
Step 3


Insert the short piece inside the long one as shown, use your Glue arts adhesive squares to adhere the first corner- do it from the front and the back side of your project. Now insert the second long piece into the free corner of your short one, adhere it and add the last one. Be sure to secure the corners with some more glue squares. Don't glue anything inside. Actually your shadow box is done
Now for the rest on the project

Step 4



Cut the back of your box from some fancy and glittery patterned cardstock, I used GCD Studios Melody Ross Post card one gorgeous paper, cut it to your box size (8.5*5.5'') and before you do your final cut check it from the front to be sure you see the piece you wanted to be shown. Adhere your fancy paper piece on the back of your frame using Glue Arts Glider pro or any other doublesided strong adhesive
Step 5


Using your ruler again ,cut 4 strips from your glittered cardstock for the front cover
Using your Glue glider adhere all 4 strips as show, don't glue the edges yet, as we need to trim them to triangle shape. Trim your edges as shown and now add more glue to finish the frame
Step 6


This is a time for you to be creative: make art and experiments, don't be afraid , it's your art, not mine
But if your want to do my kind of embellishments- here are the next few steps for this box
Cut some flower from your previous GCD cardstock and glue them over your frame as shown. Cut some butterflies form another piece of GCD cardstock and adhere them randomly over your frame. I used the same adhesive squares as on my first steps
Add Pink Paislee transparent card inside your box-glue it with adhesive squares inside the second fold- not too close to the back paper
Add some vintage die cuts- I used K&CO pieces inside the next fold and over the cover


Step 7


Adhere the ribbons , pleat the lower lace as shown and glue the second
lace layer on the top. Make a fancy bow and glue is over the cover with adhesive squares, add a vintage angel button with the same adhesive and finally add some crystal swirls all around the cover
As my finish touch I added the micro mini buttons over the butterflies and inked the outside " pages" of my book with Tea Dye distress ink
Enjoy your frame- you can also put some photo inside if you wish so
