Pop out/Exploding Box

Hi everyone and hope you all ok...
 
Would like to show you a pop out/exploding box using Little Claire's Hedgehogs in Squares Stamp Set...
 

 
 
 

 
To make this box you will need
Pro markers apple, meadow green, canary, tan, caramel
X Cut flower dies
Flowers/Pearl  from WOC
3 pieces of A4 card
Ruler
Pencil
Scissors  
 
 
 

1st start by cutting a piece of card 18cm square and another 14cm square. The 18cm piece you need to measure and mark lightly with a pencil 6cm from each side inwards. The 14cm piece measure 5cm from each side inwards.
(I've used a dark pen as it shows up better in the photo for you to see) 
 
 
cut out the corners on each piece then score/fold
 
stamp, colour and cut out the cute hedgehogs. I done this twice as I have put the hedgehogs on the outside plus the inside of box
 
 
Using card and the papers cut pieces to fit the flaps on the outside
 
and the inside. Glue the smaller square just on the base to the inside of the larger squares base and add the 2nd lot of cute hedgehogs 
 
glued 5 flowers in the middle square
 
For the lid cut a piece of card 8 1/2cm square and measure 1cm in from each side inwards.
 All 4 corners cut a small triangle out of each corner, fold along the lines then glue just the triangles and stick to form the lid. You can use a 8cm square piece of card and do the same but I found the lid to be a bit on the small side.
 
 
To make the flower on the top I used papers and x cut flower dies, glued cut out pieces together then added a pearl to centre
 
 
 Hope you enjoyed..
 
Take Care
Hugs
xx Lozzy xx
