How have you been managing with Covid in your life? It has definitely put me behind in my design projects. Generally by July I am working a Christmas but here I am introducing 4 summer themed shadow boxes. I spent most of March and all of April, May and June providing housing, schooling and childcare for two of my grandchildren and very little time was leftover for designing. I did have a wonderful time and I miss them now that they have moved back to the city. I am squeezing in some projects because they may well be back here in the fall. But for now - let’s get some crafting done!
Today I uploaded to the store 4 new designs for the stacked shadow box series. I am still loving this project and I do want to have designs for every month of the year. You can then purchase one frame and swap out designs as the seasons change. I had designs for Valentines Day through Graduation and Independence Day completed before the pandemic struck. I want summer designs in the calendar series as well.
This shell design is a two for one project. The above shadow box is made from the scraps leftover from the following one.
I completed both but be fore warned. The simple upper version takes about 1/3 the time to assemble as the second one.
I also designed a Nautilus Shadow Box to complete the summer shell series. I just love the geometric beauty of a Nautilus shell. It is so perfect for this design concept.
IN a more vibrant vein I also design a sun and butterfly stacked shadow box. With these I was aiming toward a stronger graphic design element an emphasized that with the addition of the black accent. Any of these I would love to see in different color combinations.
