Happy Wednesday, peeps! I had a little class yesterday where we made an 8"x8" patriotic shadow box. It was a lot of fun and I got a chance to use an old Waltzingmouse stamp set that I got many, many years ago, along with some Honey Bee papers and stamps! Here we go:
Each Basic Beige square was 2" with a 2 1/8" mat of Cherry Cobbler. All the printed paper came from Honey Bee's Americana pad. Besides the WM stamp set called USA 1776, we also used the retired Star Spangled Banner from SU and a background stamp from Honey Bee called Land of the Free. Our colors were Night of Navy, Cherry Cobbler, Real Red and Misty Moonlight. We used some glimmer paper and various star punches and dies as well as the Alphabet Ala Mode for the letters. I like to use patriotic decor throughout my house during the summer, so this will fit in nicely!
Thanks so much for stopping in today! Enjoy it and be blessed!

You've got the greatest patriotic supplies. Love your shadow box. I have never made one. Wish I lived close so I could craft with you!
LeAnne, I'd love to see your darling home all decked out for the Summer - this sweet little shadowbox will surely add more Americana!
What wonderful stamps and papers! I'll bet your students loved it, too.

This is a fantastic little decoration, LeAnne! I love the sparkly stars on the tops of the firecrackers!
Oh, LeAnne!! Love, love, love! This is so beautiful and a work of art that you will treasure for years to come! I remember in 2014 my Missouri friend, Vicki Burdick, came to PA for a week visit and we sat down one afternoon and made one of these. I loved how it turned out and display it every year! Great job!!! :)
What a fantastic shadow box! I love it! Great job!

Outstanding! So fun to make & what a beautiful outcome! I love all the stamps you used!
