Here is the piece that I made.
I love to fill printer trays, divided boxes and little shadowboxes. So I used a box from Hobby Lobby, painted the outside with Martha Stewart green olive acrylic paint and then brushed Golden paint over the green. (I used Quinacridone/Nickel Azo Gold.)
I then began gathering lots of stuff from my stash and my sister's stash. I decided to cover the back of each section with patterned paper. Next came the fun part - adding in all the bits and bobs to fill each space.
Here are a few close ups of some sections.
I hope you will join us at the "Inspire Your Heart with Art Day" linky party!

So cute! I love shadow boxes! My favorites are from Tim Holtz and Seven Gypsies. What a special way to showcase nifty trinkets! And what fun to be in this link-up! I enjoyed seeing your work.
Joan what a lovely way to showcase all your little mementos and trinkets. A great way to inspire your heart with little treasures you love on display. I am so pleased you joined in with our Inspire Your Heart With Art Event. xx
I adore playing with shadow boxes but none of mine even come close to the goodies in yours! Every time I look at it I see something new - and the cute couple at the top are adorable! Amazing!
This is wonderful. I've always wanted to play with shadow boxes, but dare not venture into an other crafty area...LOL
