Shadow Box

After 3 and 1/2 years, I finally got around to finishing up my daughter's newborn shadow box.

I used an 11 x 14 shadow box frame that I got from Michael's. Looking back, I think a square box would have worked better so that it would give me more room on the left and right side. The onesie takes up most of the room, and I found it a little difficult fitting everything in the box. Regardless, I'm pretty happy with the way it turned out. 

This is what I used in my shadow box:

- Footprints (I brought a piece of scrapbook paper to the hospital. The nurses will stamp your baby's footprint. Hopefully your nurse will put left foot on left, and right on right side)

- Onesie

- Hospital Hat

- Hosptial Bracelet

- Name card from hospital crib

- New Baby Announcement card

- "It's A Girl" heart was recycled from one of the cards I received.

- Pins
