Grow with Love, Explosion Box Tutorial, Part 2, a Country Craft Creations Design Team Project

 

This is the second part of the tutorial for my March design team package for Country Craft Creations. graphic 45’s “Grow with Love” is so beautiful and so spring-feeling! I love the colors and the florals! In this tutorial we go over how to make all of the inside elements/mini albums and such, that go on the inside and in the middle of this explosion box. Since this is a larger project and it takes a little while to create, I decided to divide it up into a couple of tutorials. The first tutorial is how to make the base, box, and lid. It is here if you missed it. https://youtu.be/rWUgj-zX6ok In the next tutorial we will go over all of the decorations and how to add a fun handle to the lid. I can’t wait for you to see it!!! It will be available in the next couple of days. Below is a list of the products I will be using in this project and a cut list for the base, box and lid in this tutorial. Have fun and I’ll see you soon to finish it! ***The following are the products in my design team package*** Graphic 45 Grow with Love, I received the patterned paper, the coordinating solid patterns and stripes, Chipboard sticker Set, and the chipboard tags and frames, but there are more items available in this collection... https://www.countrycraftcreations.com/products/g45-grow-with-love-12x12-collection-kit#cd9f/fullscreen/m=and&p=2&q=grow+with+love Graphic 45 Brass Feet https://www.countrycraftcreations.com/products/g45-staples-antique-brass-decorative-claw-feet I'm also using Black and Banana Split Artisan Cardstock https://www.countrycraftcreations.com/collections/artisan-cardstock and white seam binding. https://www.countrycraftcreations.com/collections/seam-binding I used light weight chipboard https://www.countrycraftcreations.com/products/chipboard-light-weight-12x12-sheet score tape https://www.countrycraftcreations.com/collections/scor-tape and Art Glitter Glue https://www.countrycraftcreations.com/collections/adhesives#cd9f/mobile/m=and&q=art+glitter+glue as well.
