TIPS AND TECHNIQUES

Wednesday, April 3, 2013

So I said I'd post a picture of the "Explosion Box" that I worked on.  It turned out really beautiful and I gave it to my best friend just because she's the "Best".

Here's the top....I love the flower which I made using spellbinders and a butterfly that I strung pearls on a wire and topped it with the butterfly.  The "I Believe in Me" is from som Tinkerbell stickers that were left over from my granddaughters birthday party.!

The inside is filled with little pockets and sayings on each flap.  I love the colors, so girly!  If you search YouTube for exploding boxes there are a ton of tutorials explaining the construction and just go wild with your imagination and decorate, decorate, decorate!!

It's hard to tell but the middle has a flower and more wired pearl butterflies.
  Hope you enjoyed seeing this and have fun making your own.  I like to think of them as a card that's a box. Or a box that's a card!  I love this idea and have already started making a few more to give away to family and friends.
