This kit is for the Good Luck inserts, coordinating papers and instructions. The wood base pieces are all pre-cut and ready for you to attach the enclosed paper. You will need to cover the shapes with the enclosed paper and trim and file down. The Shadow Boxes are magnetic so that you will only need 1 frame that you switch out monthly. I only use Beacons 3 in 1 glue to attach the papers and wood. You will also need Black Embossing Powder, Versamark, scissors or exacto knife.
