Belle’s “You Make My Heart Bloom” Shadow Box stands out for its poetic storytelling and beautifully layered paper craftsmanship. Inspired by a bittersweet cherry blossom scene, she transforms simple heart shapes into delicate blooms that feel soft, romantic, and full of meaning. The final sentiment ties the whole piece together in a heartfelt, display-ready finish. :cherry_blossom:

Kimberly’s “Park Bench Shadowbox” stands out for its sweet personal story and beautifully built layered scene. For her very first shadowbox, she created a romantic sunset moment, capturing her and her husband watching the sky with their little dog, in a way that feels both intimate and cinematic. The heart-shaped frame, crisp paper-cut layers, and soft gradient backdrop work together to create depth and a peaceful “quiet moment” vibe, while the bold LOVE detail and finishing floral accents make it extra charming and display-ready. :heart:

Thank you so much for the prize!!! I can’t tell you how much I have learned from this group and how I love how accepted my artwork is. I love crafting so much. I don’t talk to most of my family about this but crafting saved me from having to take anti depressant medications. Now I don’t see a problem with these meds but I am on pain killers for a degenerative disc disease. My pain Dr says I may take one or the other … not both. If I don’t have the pain meds I would be living a life in bed and in constant misery. I knew I had to help myself with the depression. I started forcing myself to craft every day. It wasn’t long before my hubby was begging me to go to bed and sleep a bit instead of spending all night in the studio. The depression went away because of the endorphins produced when I craft. If you’re depressed, get help. If you don’t have any other choice do something you LOVE … every single day and see if it helps.
