EXPLOSION CARD



















My very first Explosion card box to make. I used beautiful pp by My Mind's Eye. Tildas were colored with Copics. Rubons and rhinestones are by Basic Grey. Buttons are from Blla Bella.... The heart charm is a long time saved charm from my stash waiting for the perfect project. Stickles were used on the wand star of Tildas. A heart punched from cork was colored with my Copics.
thanks so much for stopping by to take a peek.....

I really like this box. I have these two stamps and you did a great job putting them together! I think I just might get up the nerve to make one of these.
Thanks for your inspiration.

Peggy, Definitely, my favorite one just viewed. Loved your color choices for paper and Tilda! Wow... an idea of a subtle explosion box that pops with excitement when opened! Almost as if Tilda is shyly whispering, "surprise" at a birthday party when the recipient opens the box. Really a nice job. Friend, Debi
