Understand, that really was the way a lot of us learned how to cut fabrics, wasn't it? I remember my first project was cutting out 6" squares of fabric for a Christmas Tree Skirt using a cardboard template from a cereal box! We've certainly come a long way since those days!

Thank you for taking the time to post, I appreciate it. Would love to see pictures of your Shadowbox when it is complete!
