Today’s project is an Essential Oil Shadow Box featuring the Toile Tidings Designer Series Paper and the Itty Bitty Christmas stamp set!
This shadow box looks like a “normal” gift box from the outside, but the inside is a shadow box that holds a 15ml bottle of essential oil!
If you are looking for a shadow box to hold a 5ml bottle, check out my tutorial HERE. Here’s a closer look at the decorated box:

Thank you so much for stopping by today! I hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving!
