I love making hybrid decor for my home! Last summer I made a shadow box calendar that I loved and I decided to use the shadow box idea again for some Spring decor.
I had some shadow box frames on hand from a clearance sale at Target a while back (I have seen them at craft stores as well).
1) I made my 8×8 canvas in Photoshop and used some of my favorite spring goodies from The Digi Files 3 leaving room at the bottom for some flowers. That googly birdie just makes me happy!
2) I printed this at home on HP Premium Brochure Paper (matte finish). I added my flowers and brads (two of my very favorite paper scrapping goodies).
3) Lastly, I put the finished project in the frame and ta-da…a great piece of artwork to bring in SPRING!
As I was cruising the galleries tonight looking for some hybrid projects for an upcoming post, I found this really CUTE project by Cindyg that was similar to mine and just had to share it with all of you! I love how she curled the rays on the sunshine! (click the image for full credits).
P.S. Yin is having a sale on her fabulous templates!! Be sure to check it out!

Both examples are so cute!! I don’t do much as far as seasonal decor (besides Christmas) and that’s been something I wanted to change for quite a while! Thanks for the inspiration!!
Love your shadowbox idea! It would be so cool on my entryway table! I like the idea of having some seasonal decoration there. I think this would make a great card too – wow! 2 ideas!!! Thanks so much!
