Homemade mini shadow box

Hey everyone,

Ive been wanting to do a shadow box for ages and ages, but i dont have any trinkets or charms thatr can go into a big one yet, so i thought i would have ago at making a mini one.

I made it from 6 insides of a small match boxes that i got in a bundle from local supermarket,
all i did was hot glue them together and then used some cardboard to cover the back and sides so i had a smooth surface, i then painted it all in black, and got to work with the embellishing... All of the embellishments are from Wild Orchid Crafts, apart from the heart that i cut out of a piece of patterned paper. Overall it took me about an hour to do but i had so much fun doing it and its something you can hang somewhere without having to worry where it will go like with a big one. 

Hope you all enjoy my lil creation, i havent ever seen a mini one before so pretty proud actually :) 

xoxo
