DIY shadowbox

So, I wanted to keep Yoshi's first shed, which is fine, but what to do with something that gets more like tissue paper everyday? If I put it in a photo frame its going to get crushed, but it has to go in something! So a shadow box was my solution. I was happy with the results...and thought I'd share...
although i didnt think of taking pics untill i was mostly done. I made the shadow box out of pieces of old photo frame and a wooden display box from work. Its mostly just white glue, with a tiney screw in bit in the back to hang it.

The letters, background and mushrooms are made of craft foam that I cut out with an exacto-knife and the skin is held in place with straight pins. The background took several layers to give the pins something to grip into.
