Exploding Box For A Surprise

June 03, 2017  ,  12 comments

Happy Saturday Craft Lovers

Such a lovely day. Mr Sun is out on full force so its a bit too hot to be outside at the moment. That is why I am happily typing away.

I made this Exploding Box earlier which I think is suitable for little surprises. Thought of putting some mini chocolates and giving it to my darling Nanny. She is 89 this year and loves to eat chocolates.

Exploding Box For A Surprise


Anyway I was surfing the internet and came across a few craft challenges and decided to take part in it. Looks like my Exploding Box project suits a few craft challenges. Its actually my first time joining in a craft challenge so I am very excited.

About my project, this is the first time I am doing an exploding box. I chose a pink theme because pink is my favourite colour.

Exploading Box Fold


Where did I learn to do it? From Youtube of course. I love learning new folds from videos rather than reading instructions. I am a lazy lass aren't I...haha

It didn't take long to complete this project. Just some paper matching, measuring and gluing. Then finally making sure it fits with the cover. I am glad it did. I will be sharing an exploding box fold tutorial in one of my future post.

Until then happy crafting everyone and enjoy the weekend.
