Accordion Pocket Explosion Box December Daily Tutorial

 

This is the tutorial for the very simplified December Daily Explosion Box Idea that I shared a couple of days ago. If you are interested in seeing that version, the video is here...

This is my design team project for Country Craft Creations. You don't need a bunch of supplies for this one. It's quick and easy! I used the exclusive collection "Christmas Cheer" by Country Craft Creations I also used Artisan cardstock in Black, Olive, Red and Pearl Sheen Natural Other supplies from Country Craft Creations: Seam Binding in Black and Red Black foam tape

From my stash I used one eyelet and some tinsel trim. I also inked the patterned papers with Distress ink by Tim Holtz, in Vintage Photo. I also used a small piece of chipboard for the star on the lid. For the box you will need one cardstock at 12 x 12 and for the lid, one piece 6 1/2 x 6 1/2 The pockets are made from 4 pieces of cardstock at 8 3/4 x 2 1/2. These are made from black cardstock. The tags are 3 1/2 x 3 1/2 and are made from Green, Red and Pearl Sheen Natural. You will need 8 of each. The center trifold is made from a piece that is 11 1/4 x 3 3/4 (black cardstock) with red cardstock mats that are 3 5/8 x 3 5/8, you will need 4 of these. Thanks so much for watching and stay tuned for more fun tutorials coming soon!!
