These lovelies were created by Wendy Anderson from Alpha Stamps! Aren’t they gorgeous?
So what did Wendy create these gorgeous doll shrines from? She made them out of small diorama boxes! Brass box feet were used in the front of the shrine and instead of using them for the back of the shrine, Wendy wrapped the Organza Ribbon Roses around wooden spools. Other items used listed below.
Supplies
– Small Diorama Box
– Fractured Dolls
– Organza Ribbon Roses
– Verdigris Angels Wings
– Curio 6×6 Paper Pad
– Mini Bird Eggs

– Brass Cherub Banner
– Brass Box Feet
– Wood Mini Spools

If you’re wondering how Wendy aged the Fractured Dolls, I know how she did it! Wendy used Cranberry and Wild Plum alcohol inks and gold Rub ‘n Buff on the doll in the Rosy Shrine. Just apply the inks and then wipe them off here and there with a paper towel, then enhance with Rub ‘n Buff. Easy!
