Great shadow box!
Debbie, your RC shadow box is amazing. I especially love the added touch of the little gears in the bottom corner. Thank you for sharing how you layered the digi stamps with the digi paper. I am always stumped with how to fill the huge expanse of white that is the background of most scenes, and will be using your idea in the future.
I am loving these unique images. Thanks for the chance to win.
Wonderful Guy card, seem they are the hardest, Awesome card with all those lovely details..."A Treasure"

I love it Debbie. I struggle with those boys cards. I always want to add a bit of bling or glitter and by the time I have finished I have a girls card instead of a boys. Thanks for the inspiration!
