Summer Garden

Gee this one was so hard to photograph. I still didnt get it right!!! Well, my friend (Deb) and I had a wonderful playday and made these gorgeous boxes. When you take the lid off it explodes with sparkling butterflys and Tilda sat in the middle. Very fun to make and simply stunning once it is opened. Deb actually found the recipe for the boxes months ago and we just decided to adapt them to "Magnolia Boxes". Ha ha. Go and take a look at Debs AMAZING creation here http://www.james-ee.blogspot.com/

    This explosion box is just so totally cool! I've seen them done before, but not with the stamped images flying out to you. Awesome, awesome job...

    What a fabulous idea! Your box is absolutely GORGEOUS!!! I am definitely going to have to try this idea. Using acetate is a very clever way of attaching the extra "stuff". Brilliant all round.
