Personalised Gifts

I made these personalised shadow boxes for my kids teachers as gifts.Teachers play a very important role in educating the kids.Initial years in school are very important as it shapes your thinking, attitude and your views.As Solomon Ortiz said,"Education is the key to success in life,and teachers make a lasting impression in the lives of their students." I wanted to make something that will be a keepsake for them.
My frames are for the ICRC32 Challenge this month at ICR which is Back To School with a Twist of using any school elements. So do join us this week also and show us your wonderful creations.
To make these frames I used shadow boxes and used my cricut to cut out the alphabets.I love the shadow  feature on the cricut which lets you cut out the alphabet a little bigger so that you can give the layering effect to your project. I added embellishments I had in my stash to go with the school theme.Hope you all like it and I would love to hear your comments.Thanks for stopping by.

Summer Butterfly

As you all know that this months theme at ICR is a summer butterfly with buttons or brads .For the second round of inspiration I created this card using repeated stamping of the same flower with different colors and used the same colors to punch out the butterflies.I used Martha Stewarts butterfly punch,this punch is really neat as you can get a 3D effect by attaching the butterflies to each other.I have also added washi tape and brads to my card.I have also used distress ink along the edges.Do join us for this fun and easy challenge.
