Halloween Shadow Box

"Good gracious bat woman, that's quite a frock you're wearing".

I'm back in the craft/art studio and it feels good. My first project: a Halloween shadow box I made for Natalea http://www.kandeland.typepad.com


I was drawn to this image. There's something ghoolishly elegant about it. A bat cape, ears, wings, but yet, a
ball gown bustle, and yards of fabric. I decided to layer the image to give it a 3D look. I cut out two exact images, and added a third layer which included the bat and paper gown ruffles. 






Embellishments of millinery, jewels, papers, velvet, and a glass shadow box frame were added to this art assemblage.

Natalea send me an amazing shadow box in return. I will post pictures of what I received next! The swap was organized by Vivian, who is a wonderful host.

Blessings,
Ele
