Altered Heart Shadowbox

This is one of my upcoming classes - an altered heart shadowbox. It is meant to hang. It started out as a paper mache heart box with a window. That acetate window caused a glare in the photo, but you can get the idea.


Here is the inside of the box. I used different printed papers, text and music pages for the background and painted text pages for the sides. The keys are chipboard - clear embossed several times and rubbed with Perfect Pearls. I love that image of the two little girls. I tinted it lightly with chalks.
