Cupid's Heart Magnetic Explosion Box Walk Through, a Country Craft Creations Design Team Project

 


Hello! Before I lose power in this nasty ice storm I wanted to post this walk through. 🥶 I have made a new design with my favorite explosion box, using magnets, and the amazing Valentine's collection "Cupids Heart". I am also using the 12 x 14 Artisan cardstock and the Glamour Cardstock for the first time. This box doesn't use the explosion scoreboard, just the "usual" one. I hope you enjoy the walk through and I'll be back soon with the tutorial.
STAY WARM AND SAFE!!!
Below is a list with links of the papers I'm using. Thanks do much for watching. I Cupid's Heart 8 x 8 https://www.countrycraftcreations.com... Artisan Cardstock (I'm using 12 x 14 Pearl Sheen Natural, Red and Black) https://www.countrycraftcreations.com... Seam Binding (I'm using Black) https://www.countrycraftcreations.com... Glamour Cardstock (Gala Pink and Ocean Blue) https://www.countrycraftcreations.com... Art Glitter Glue https://www.countrycraftcreations.com... Scor Tape https://www.countrycraftcreations.com... The flower shaping mold is unfortunately sold out. I used punches from my stash.

NEW!!! Baby Explosion Box Tutorial, Large 6 x 6" size!

 


I have made a new explosion box, supersized to 6 x 6".  This was a request from one of my subscribers, so I hope that it is what they wanted to see!  

I made a smaller version that was too small for all I wanted to do with it...so the bigger size was just what was needed.  The video has all of the information in it, and a cutting guide in the description.  

I'm using Echo Parks "Our Baby" paper collection. It took about one pack. I also used Artisan Cardstock, seambinding and Art Glitter Glue from Country Craft Creations. https://countrycraftcreations.com

Thanks so much for watching and visiting my blog.  Have a super crafty day!
