HelIo I did promise you I would bring you a how to for my exploding box so this is it I hope you like it.
I love making cards and I'm keen to take my card making skills up a notch!. Funny thing is usually it's not that tricky so just be brave a give it a go. Pop over to you tube and you will find loads of exploding cards to make but all using 12by 12 papers. Now that's great you get a good sized box. But we don't always have 12 by 12 card and you need something with a bit of strength to make this it is a box after all. So a little bit of trial and error and I have done it. Yep I've made one out of standard a4. So to need 3 pieces of a4 card for this. They don't have to be the same colours but you will see them ideally pick your patterned paper and then pick your card. So forgive me for my long video So using some a A4 card you need to cut it to 9cm by 27.5. You need 4 pieces this size. Then score each piece at 9.1cm and 18.1 cm and fold. Then cut 4 pieces of card 27cm by 8cm and score at 9.1 cm and 18.1cm and fold. For the lid you need a piece of card 20.5cm by 20.5cm and score on each side at 5.5cm. I really hope you can follow these instructions do watch the video to help you but be warned these are very addictive. I will film a video of me decorating one soon. Take care xxxx
