This is a shadow box frame I picked up from ikea for about £5. I then cut out the shapes using the Silhouette Cameo. As my friend is from the UK and her partner is from France I used maps of the places where they have come from and mounted the male and female onto a canvas from the local craft shop. I dyed the maps using an olive green dew drop ink. I painted the Ikea insert with grey acrylic and then put it all together. The 'love' text is also from the Silhouette store.
What a fabulous present for your friend and a great idea to use the different maps as papers. Hope you are having a good holiday weekend. Maddy x
