3D Picture Box

Just thought I'd have a break from Christmas craft this week and try some thing new too. I was inspired to do this from a pin on pinterest http://www.pinterest.com/pin/314689092682440976/
 
I printed a sheet of backing paper with a great text pattern and then put it into the silhouette cameo to cut out the hearts. I  used the negative part of the of the hearts as a template to line up the hearts on a plain white background. I print the pattern again to create a border.
 
 
I distressed the edges of my hearts with tim holtz antique linen distress inks and for the red one I used xmas red stickles.
 
 
I used 3d pads to lift the hearts for a great 3D effect.
 
 
I got the 3D box from hobby craft it was already painted white. Hope you like it.
