Shadowbox For Dad

Happy Tuesday everyone!

It's time for another challenge over at Celebrate The Occasion. This week we are celebrating Veterans Day.
I would like to share with you a shadowbox I made for my Dad. He went to Army Language School and then was stationed over in Germany. He had saved a lot of things from his time in the service and I put this together for him as a remembrance.


Supplies used: patterned paper by Reminisce; embellishments - K & Company and Reminisce; shadowbox - Michaels; memorabilia - my Father

Hope you will stop by and check out the other DT's creations and post one of your own!!
We'd love to have you play along with us!!!
