My project was made with donated items from Provo Craft: Cuttlebug embossing folders Moroccan Screen and Spots & Dots and Cuttlebug dies Flower and Hearts. Thank you, Provo Craft!Our weekly Be Inspired challenge at Cuttlebug Challenge blog is Shadow Boxes. Make a card or project, and use Provo Craft items to create it. I have to admit that I had some anxiety over this challenge, but I am so glad I participated. I purchased the 7 Gypsies photo tray last week from ACMoore. The papers are all BasicGrey Granola. I also used Bazzill primas, a Sizzix die (braces), some SU dies (top note and fancy label), SU ovals & word window punches, Making Memories rub-on sentiments and jelly sticker, and it takes two name stickers.
The guy in the top left pic is my f-i-l. His birthday is May 1st, and I never know what to give him, other than pictures of his favorite girls. I can't wait to give this to him this year.
I love the picture in the bottom left corner of Kathryn. She looks so grown up! She already looks like an 8yo *sigh*. Speaking of growing up, Kathryn has her front adult teeth. A year ago, she had a big gap there. This past weekend Julia lost one of her top front baby teeth. Some people at school call her "Little Julia." She is a little shorter than Kathyrn, but she is average height for her age. I think it is because she is one of the few second graders with baby teeth. Now she is going to look like a big girl too :(
I hope you will make a shadow box card or project. They are really fun to make. Choose your photos and papers, then just add bits & bobs from your stash. Fun!

I've just looked over your past few posts - some gorgeous cards (mmmmm, Origins!!), but my favourite things have to be Julia and Kathryn's t-shirts - aren't they delighted with themselves modelling them!!!
