I also decided to make a mini piece with an image of a vintage photo frame and a shrink plastic piece. It's the one in the middle. It measures 2.5"x3.5".

Vintage Photo Album Page
I've collected several vintage photo albums, but until today, I've never made anything with the inserts.
This is one I purchased from the Petaluma Art Is You Vendor Fair. I love the graphics on the border.
I cut out the middle opening and used a shallow box on the back to create a shadow box. I used my new paper from Prima that I purchased last weekend to line the back of the box. I added an image of a girl and wrapped her head with lace. Finished it with a bow and vintage earrings. Keep those empty boxes, you never know when they might come in handy.

Very clever of you to use an empty box to create a shadowbox effect - love your composition using lace and the shrink plastic. Beautiful frames adds the finishing touch - great work!
ReplyDeleteI love your album pages. Cool look with the Shadow box. Love the button necklaces too. That would make for a great class. I am also looking for a way to make a piece of jewelry with all the buttons I have collected. But it's always so hard to take a favorite button and use it.
