Hello sweet friends! I have some girlie and fru~fru pretties to share with you all. WOW! It's been a LONG time since I've made one of these sweet and whimsical shadowboxes. I was commissioned by the very sweet & lovely Debbie of GirlWhimsy. I wanted to make her a shadowbox filled with all the things she loves. Butterflies, Barbie, Ballerina's, Roses, Hearts, and lots of *BLING*!
Tiny dancer twirling on her swan.
Pink princess bird nesting in her tiara crown.
I like to call this little girl the "Butterfly whisperer". tee! hee!
This ICON of a beauty is sitting pretty adoring herself in her hand mirror. Beside her is companion pink poodle.
Hmmm…do I need more lipstick?
Nothing is more feminine, graceful and lovely than sweet ballerina's.
I LOVE this last shadowbox cubby! The heart is so pink and bright with pretty floral paper in the background. I like to call this one "Key to my heart."
I haven't made a shadowbox in awhile so this was a fun treat to make!
On to more girlie froof! 😉
I am excited to be attending Silver Bella again this year. This will be my 3rd year attending. Whoo-Hoo! Every year The Queen Froof Teresa herself decides on a theme night for the vendor faire. This year's theme is APRONS!!!! So, I decided that I would commission the *APRON QUEEN* herself the uber talented, and darling sugary sweet Holly to make me an apron that suits me to a "T". Holly's made TDF stunning aprons for Christine, Jessi,Kim, and Maija. After one look at there aprons I wanted one too!!!!
I gave Holly this one image and told her to work her *Magic*!
Ta-da!!!! Sweetness OVERLOAD!!!!
Pink and blue frills!!!!!
Such pretty touches!
Lovey, love, love the swiss polka dot!
*SIGH* I've saved the best for last…..Nancy Ann storybook doll and her pet bunny.
Sugar & Spice and everything nice!
Holly truly did the MOST *AMAZING* job on these little sweeties.
This is what it looks like on. 🙂
This is a better shot with details. The others where a bit blurry. It's kinda hard to take a good pic using the self-timer.
Thank you so much Holly! Im tickled pink with my custom apron and cant wait to wear it to Silver Bella!
Lastly, I am honored and ever so humbled to have been choosen as Christine aka Dollybelle DIY "Miss August" Glamour girl of the month! WHOO-HOO! What a fun title to have.
This is how I felt when Christine told me the news…hee! hee!
Thank you sweet sweet Christine! I am loving my BLING and super girlie image!
Thank you for stopping by and paying me a visit. As always I appreciate your comments!
Have a lovely creative weekend!

Aawwww the shadowbox is sooooo pretty 🙂 Is it for a little one? Although I think it’ll fit right also for the young at hearts. Yes, i believe it to be so.
The apron is too cute. With just an image of your request, she made it perfectly – very inspired from the photo and perfect for you – You look adorable by the way.
Congratulations on being crowned. 🙂
