Succulent Shadow Box DIY.  Every time I get to do a project with my Xryon creative tools, I get a smile on my face.  I seriously love making everything into a sticker.  From my kids’ artwork to layered scrapbook paper, to foam sheet and even cork pieces!  I have used Xyron sticker making tools for nearly a decade, and I am just thrilled to no end to be a part of their blogger design team!  This project is no different, and I am not sure that I could have made this Succulent Shadow Box without my Xyron tools. Everyday Party Magazine Shadow Box DIYMy sister loves succulents, geometric shapes, bold colors, and gold.  With this in mind, I got to work on a sweet succulent shadow box picture frame for my sister’s Easter basket. I was sent a box of fun goodies from a collection by 1canoe2 and American Crafts; papers, cork decor pieces, and some washi tape, and oh the ideas I have for some of these papers! However, one design immediately stood out as the one to use for a project for my sister.  I grabbed one of my many IKEA shadow box frames and gave it a quick coat of primer and gold metallic spray paint.  While I waited for it to dry completely, I used my Cricut to cut out the paper from 1canoe2 and American Crafts to cover the pre-made mat.  (Grab the cut file here) I used my Xyron Mega Runner to adhere the paper to the mat.  Next, I used my Xyron Sticker Maker to make the cork triangles from 1canoe2 and American Crafts into sticker and randomly added them to the mat board.  Everyday Party Magazine Shadow Box DIY

Everyday Party Magazine Shadow Box DIYI had some tiny pots with fake succulents, so I taped a cut line, and carefully used a hand saw to cut one in half(ish).  I traced the pot on a piece of craft foam and cut it out, then I ran it through my Xyron Creative Station on each side to make it like double sided foam tape.  I added it to the back of the pot, and then stuck the pot to the mat board.Everyday Party Magazine Shadow Box DIY  Now, I was ready to put the frame back together, and add a picture of my sister and brother in law.  I filled a small bowl with more fake succulents and I’ll add it to her Easter basket as well. Everyday Party Magazine Shadow Box DIYThis project took me about an hour from start to finish, but, I really love the finished look, and I love knowing my sister is the only person I will know with this frame! Everyday Party Magazine Shadow Box DIY
