Heartfelt Creations Semi-Finalist Entries

I am so excited to be on the semi-finalist for Heartfelt Creations :) and had so much fun playing with the awesome goodies sent to me on the semi-finalist kit. I decided to create a layout and alter a cigar box for my entries, I do hope you enjoy them and vote for me :) Thank you all so much for all your support and love!

Layout
To Create this Layout I used the Vintage Floret  Paper Collection from Heart felt Creations , and it is so Beautiful and Shabby Chic. The Beautiful Picture was included on the kit  and it is so Beautiful that I just had to create a layout with it. I made the flowers using the the Posy Patch Flowers Stamps and the cordinating Posy Patch Heartfelt Creations Spellbinders, they are so beautiful and they are one of the flowers I learned to make on More Paper Than Shoes Class, the spellbinders and stamps just make them very easy for me to make and ave me alot of time cutting. The Photo Corner is one of many Beautiful Heart Felt Creations spellbinders, so elegant and beautiful! The sentiment is from the paper Collection and it has many other beautiful sentiments. I love How this layout Turned out!! it is so Beautiful!!! 

Cigar Box Top and Side View
I used and old picture frame I had in my stash to create a shadow box for the top and adhered it with E600 and hot glue.
Do you see the Cheese cloth peaking out?

The Front view
I used seam binding to make a double bow and a ribbon buckle with a flat back pearl adhered with hot glue .
The Paper Collection ( Vintage Floret Collection) is so Beautiful and it was perfect for the shabby chic look I was going for this box. I adhere the paper inside and out of the box with modge podge and dabbed gesso on the edges.

TOP VIEW

For the Inside of the little shadow box I fussy cut some of the Beautiful Images from the paper collection and mounted them on foam board for dimention. The sentiment is from the paper collection as well and I distressed the edges and dabbed gesso with a sponge. I added cheese cloth to the background and Spanish moss and dabbed gesso as well. Look at those photo corners! they are so beautiful !! I love how this box turned out and wish I could keep it but It will be on its way to Heartfelt Creations very soon :)
