Beach Shadowbox with Makers Movement

Oh, how I want to visit the beach, sand in my toes, playing in the water. It is such a fantastic summer activity. Since I can’t go, I made this shadowbox to remind me of how fun it can be. This shadowbox can be placed on a shelf as a decor item or as a Christmas tree ornament. Wouldn’t it be fun to send to a friend that also loves the beach? Thanks to Maker’s Movement for sending me the stamp and die set, Beach Vibes to use with this project. 


Beach Vibes

Materials:

  • Mini Maker Die Cut Machine
  • Beach Vibes – stamp and die set
  • black stamp pad
  • stamping block
  • Spectrum Noir markers
  • washi tape
  • scissors
  • white cardstock
  • Marabu fabric spray
  • double stick tape
  • foam tape squares

Directions:

I began with a box I made using a past tutorial here. [picture frame SVG]


Using the stamps, I stamped onto white cardstock.


Then I colored the images with alcohol ink markers. 


Using a bit of washi tape, I placed the dies and sent them through the Mini Maker from Maker’s Movement.


And here are the pieces all cut-out.


I used Fashion Spray from Marabu and a torn piece of cardstock to color the frame.


Using double-stick tape, I placed the castle into the frame.


Next, I cut a bit of the bottom of the bucket and placed it in the frame with foam tape to lift it up.
I used a double layer of foam squares.

The other shapes were placed with double-stick tape. 


And here is the finished piece.

Do you have a favorite beach? Let me know in the comments.
