Exploding Box

Mother-in-laws birthday on 31st October, so I made her an Exploding Box instead of a card.

Here is the box, bulging at the sides.


Take off the lid.

And it opens in a visual explosion.


With a butterfly and pictures inside.

    Hi Char, try the web address above. I bought a kit, but will keep one box as a template. It looked pretty, then I decorated it in my own way.
