Exploding Box (2)

Here is the 2nd box I made. This is my favorite. I used the Storybook for the scroll cut on the outside. On the lid I used Heritage for the die cuts, the roses were from Artiste. I used a Martha Stewart punch on the top of the lid and around the outside. Inside are various Cricut cuts, places for pictures and journaling.

Exploding Box

Its been awhile since my last post, I haven't been very crafty lately. A few months ago I made my first exploding box, I made it for my sister of our trip to England. A client of hers saw it and asked if I could make her 4 boxes for her and her sisters. They each had specific themes and colors which was a struggle for me. I like to just get in my craftroom and create something. 3 of the boxes were vintage which I loved and the last was "modern". Vintage was easy, modern not so much. It can mean so many different things. I am going to post the pics of each in separate posts, here's the first.
Its vintage with rose/cream colors. I used my Anna Griffin basket weave embossing folder for the outside. The roses are done using  Artiste. I used various carts for all the boxes: Heritage, Storybook, Elegant Edges, and a few others I can't remember.
