Today I'm sharing a Halloween shadow box. I was inspired by Erin Madsen's amazing shadow box she made for DCWV and wanted to create my own! 

 
The base of the shadow box is actually the shipment container for Prima wood veneers. I painted it black and splattered it with white paint. I cut squares from DCWV "Spooky Time" paper pads and decorated each one. Most of the images (bats, skulls, 'boo', eyes) are just fussy cut from the Spooky Time paper. All squares were put in the shadow box with foam adhesive.



Now hop on over to these talented ladies to see what they have in store today!
