Well this looks to be easier than I expected. Great job on the tutorial and shadow box.

[@lynnettegovero80]

Omg... you explained everything so simply and quick. You are by far the best turtolialist I have seen. Thank you for this.

[@beckyhayes2004]

Great tutorial! I read in a Facebook group that the aluminum wrap does not sharpen the blades… still good for getting off bits and pieces.

[@kreshenahill5344]

If you use double sided sticky pads instead of the really thick poster board, you will have less space between each layer which means it will fit in the box so you can put the back on, then you can glue the battery pack to the back side of the box frame. Otherwise how will the picture stay securely in the frame and not look so messy from the side or the back?

[@amandamoore4162]

Great tutorial! I actually think I can do this now! Thank you!!

[@annaviolette8504]

The two hardest parts of making a shadow box is getting the right dimensions for cutting the image and even more so, the lights. Every video kind of skips over those two items.

[@amandamoore4162]

Great tutorial, thank you!

[@meredithgennell]

Hermoso hermoso , me encanto , saludos desde República Dominicana , podrias decirme que material usaste para los laterales que le pusiste para darle altura

[@taradixon1409]

Sticking your blade in the foil could actually damage your blade. Cleaning with rubbing alcohol is better for longevity of your blade. Great video!! I'm going to attempt this 😊

[@jephni]

My box is slightly too big. Could that be why the light doesn’t show through or are my lights just not bright enough

[@rutbetsabepozobenites9900]

hola donde esta este archivo para comprarlo??

[@BarbaraRogers65]

I can't seem to find either of these designs and I am following your Day 5 of Freebies sent out today. Do you have a direct link for these? TY

[@calamityjan_creations]

You dont put the back back on it?

[@pastuh]

too much layers, so its impossible to close back =]

[@walmar57]

Good tutorial but wondered about the finishing and neatening of the back, seems unfinished to me.

[@djssantos1244]

The foams were too thick, best would be 1/16, the 1/8th thickness is good making it more 3D but if there were more than 5 layers it wouldn't fit the box

[@alejortr2374]

Hello, good afternoon, what printer do you use to cut the paper? thanks 😊😊😊 I love your work!🎉❤

[@pastuh]

i see information in video description :)

[@areejamir5729]

i cant find the template :\

[@kerrielally7526]

What size of shadow box is best?

[@SarahBcooksthebooks]

She used an 8x8 box for this.
