Victor + Jessica's Wedding Shadow Box and Card | SVGCuts

So excited to share with you all the latest Shadow Box! I think they just keep getting more and more beautiful! 

This Shadow Box was made as a gift for my cousin Victor and his bride Jessica who just got married this past weekend! I absolutely love how it turned out and I'm pretty sure they loved it too! Congratulations again Victor and welcome to our family Jessica!!! Had so much fun with you both and the rest of our crazy awesome family!

It's hard to see that I etched the glass in the above picture, so below is a closer look at the etched glass. Click here for a previous glass etching tutorial and project.

The rose file I used to create the heart of roses comes from the Crush On You Boxes SVG Kit here. They were just cut at different sizes and glued onto a heart template.

And here is the card I made them! SO adorable, right!?
The stamp comes from the Simply Said Stamp Pack by Craftin Desert Diva's.

The files I used to create the card come from the Love Always SVG Kit here.
(Please note that the original files have been altered to make the card using the Silhouette DSE program.)


... and here is the lovely couple's first kiss as husband and wife!

Hope you loved this project as much I loved making it!
Thanks for stopping by!

Rose Heart Shadow Box | SVGCuts

Recently one of my high school besties Daniele was in town for a post destination wedding celebration. Haven't seen much of her in years since she moved to London, England after University. We did get to see her and her man a few summers ago when we visited London. This summer she married her best friend Benni in a gorgeous villa in Tuscany! 

Today I want to share with you the gift I made them. Since I am in love with shadowboxes, I thought I would make the happy couple a Rose Heart Shadow Box as a little wedding gift from us.

For examples of other shadow boxes I've made, click here, here, here and here.

Below is a close up of the roses and the word love etched on the glass. Click here for a previous etching tutorial.

Heart Shaped Macaroons and Recipe for Valentines Day

Are you all in a Valentine's mood yet? I sure am... I got hearts in my mind! 

The last time I made macaroons I was so excited that they actually turned out, that I just had to try making them again... this time since Valentine's Day is around the corner I thought I would make them in the shape of a heart. 

Aren't they adorable? To make the heart, I just piped them out in a "V" shape.

Seriously could they be any cuter? This time I used a chocolate ganache filling.... sooooo yummy! 

Here is the recipe I used:

4 large egg whites (or 5 small – 140g (4.94 ounces))

1/3 cup caster sugar (70g (2.47 ounces))

1 1/2 cups icing sugar (230g (8.11 ounces))

1 cup almond meal (120g (4.23 ounces))

2g (0.07 ounces) salt (tiny pinch)

gel food coloring (optional)

Hope you enjoyed my heart mac's, I know I did!
