Exploding Box

I love making these Exploding Boxes - I get asked for them all of the time - 3 layers full of lots of photos of the birthday boy/girl and family.




This one was done for the mum of the boyfriend of the daughter of someone in work - nothing like the word-of-mouth!



As it was for her 50th birthday I stuck some '50' peel-offs to acetate and cut them out leaving a long 'stem'. This I then fixed through the base of the inside layer of the box. When the box is opened they 'pop' out!






Thanks for visiting, I'll pop over and see you soon :)
