Retro Skater Girls

 Hello Friends near and far,

Today at the gecko galz blog, I am the featured artist.Here are several shadow boxe  projects I created  all around  a Retro Skater Girl theme. 

 Hope they make you spin round and round.

Artfully yours, Gerri

To make these shadow boxes I added paper to the back and a silver wooden star. The Retro skater girls were fussy cut out of  the Retro Skater Girl Collage sheet by Gecko Galz on Etsy. Some plastic faux snow, some silver Stickles, some white tinsel trim  and 3 d snowflakes were used to complete these little scenes.
