Heart Shrine Shadow Box

Hello everyone, it's Monique here on the blog to share an inspiration idea with you.

It's almost Valentines day, so what better day to make a personal gift for your loved ones.  To me Valentines day is about hearts, the heart is a symbol of love, and that is why I made a heart shrine.

Ofourse it's not just a Valentines project, you can make shines with different objects for any occasion, just use what speaks to you and decorate your heart out.

Mini Nicho Boxes

Mini Nicho Boxes!

What is a Nicho box? You might be asking yourself, to keep it simple they are like a shadow box. Often used for Dia de los Muertos, or the Day of the Dead, is a Mexican religious holiday that is celebrated November 1 and 2.

Items used:

Imagination

Scissors

Alcohol markers 

ink- Palette, hybrid acid free

Sharpie marker

Card stock

Acrylic paint

Cardboard tubes (like toilet paper rolls work great)

Rubber Stamps used Day of the Dead Sugar Skull set by Donna Gray

Cut the carboard tubes into your desired shape. I cut little window like shapes into mine to slip the stamped paper inside. Paint and decorate anyway you want. I stamped the outsides of my tubes with the marigold flowers and scared heart stamps. As you can see in the picture I'm a messy crafter.
