It's called #3 because this is only my third attempt at a "shadow box" assemblage. One other was created for my niece and another some time ago for a friend.
8 x 8 inch frame with glass is from Michael's Arts & Crafts.
Background is an endpaper from an Encyclopedia Britannica.
All of the following elements were attached to the endpaper using double-sided 1/4 inch foam tape, allowing the images to float above the paper:
I have had the lovely antique parakeet & rose scrap in my "to use" box for years.
The Wills's Cigarette Card features singer & actress Eve Becke. Born 1906 as Agnes Winifred Whaler in Knaresborough, North Yorkshire, England. She died 2001 in London.
The image of the big-bottom lady is from a Taschen book of Nudes.
Lastly to tie it all together a wooden game piece -- much like a Scrabble tile -- #3.
Fabulous, Angie: The elements work beautifully against that background. And I love the way you photographed it!
ReplyDeleteYes, this works quite nicely, CC, and special kudos to the big-bottom lady!
ReplyDeleteSome intriguing elements here which all fit together surprisingly well!
ReplyDeleteAll the pieces works well together! Nice one, CC!
ReplyDeleteThanks everyone! I had fun doing it. I've started another, but don't know if I will finish in time...
ReplyDeletePost it anyway, we always love to see your work. I was THINKING about another one, but I don't suppose I'll get any credit for that...
