Another Explosion Box! I love these little boxes.
They make the perfect gift. This is for friends of mine
that just had their 20th Wedding Anniversary. Kandy & I grew up
together in NY. Aaron and I were just dating at the time
she got married. They moved to Flordia, and seven years
later we each moved to NC 1 month from each other.
We only live an hr away. How cool is that! She loves
purple, as do I, so this was perfect for them.

I will do a tutorial on how I made the cake soon.
I got the tutorial on the box, from Crafting With Class.
You can use my measurements from my last box until I post
the tutorial.
Cake
Side 1
Printed on computer
then measured and used
punch around the page.
Side2
Side 3
Side 4- Gift Card Holder
I made this pocket to hold money or a gift card.
I followed the tutorial by Whoopsi Daisy
I did not have the punch she used, so I used a Spellbinder's Diecut
Money goes in pocket
then close flap
and tie bow!

Wow Stacey! This is gorgeous. You've really got this nailed! I've wanted to do an explosion box, but haven't taken the time yet. So much I want to do, and so little time. LOL. I love the monchromatic colors, and how elegant everything looks. Did you do the swirl yourself, or is it one that's already done? I'm sure they will love, love, love it. Hugs, dj
