Floral Explosion Box by GDT Karthikha

Hello Crafty Folks,

 

I'm excited as I get you an inspirational project for this month's challenge - Exploding Surprise! Do check out the challenge post for all the rules and guidelines.

 

Direct on to my creation! I wanted to do an explosion box that will suit any occasion, be it birthday, anniversary, love, etc. So the best option was floral! I've used all the colors from the color palette for the challenge. The different shades are seen in the patterned papers and flowers used.

I started by creating the 3 layers with pockets to hold the tags. I have a mix and match of patterned papers from Papericious and other brands to suit the color theme. The middle 3d object is a small box filled with flowers. This can be used to hold tiny gift items too! A surprise inside a surprise J For the inserts, I have die cut scallop stitched circles and rectangles. The big circle tag has a mini flower brad attached along with pink satin ribbon. The middle insert is a rectangle die cut, which has a holder in the form of a flower. For this, I’ve punched out 2 flowers and attached them back to back with the tag sandwiched in between. The small circle tag has a pearl string attached to hold it.

For the lid of the box, I have used a chipboard element colored white with gesso. I kept it white to pop against the pink background. I’ve then added flowers matching the color palette











 

Here is a small video to show you the box in real!



List of materials used:


Pink cardstock
Papericious – Pretty Basics patterned paper pack

And for the inspiration I have created my version of explosion box. I have used "blush" collection papers from Papericious for my explosion box and made it on love theme. Love is a beautiful expression it makes one feel emotionally connected to ones who are special to us. The blush collection papers goes perfect with he challenge theme and it's specially designed for romantic theme as well. It has some vibrant, dreamy designs which goes well with the two layers and a garden of love as a center piece element in the middle of the box. I have used two main shades from the color palette and have given the slight touch of dull light yellow.


Open the box and be pleasantly surprised by layers of beauty, full of mystery and surprises.

Here is the Inspirations by our GDT's

Revamp your Scrap Bottles by GDT Ria Banerjee
I started with Acrylic Spray Paints viz. Orange and Yellow. Make sure that the wine bottle is cleaned before applying spray on it. I sprayed yellow first, then applied orange from the top. Let it dry for  an hour. Do not apply too much color as it will increase the opacity. Take black acrylic paint and draw whatever comes to your mind. I prefer silhouette image will provide the opacity and the image will come to life.Insert LED lights from the top and you are done! For more details check here https://tinyurl.com/rybgdtrb

Time to revamp your scrap : Bottles by GDT Ria Banerjee

In Second Project,
I started with white Acrylic spray paint and painted on the bottle.
I took a decoupage napkin and glued to the bottle.
I took some peacock feathers that I had in my home and some leaves to embellish.
I took mulberry flowers and glittered pollens (I made with glue and glitter) and adhered on the bottle.
I finished it with some aluminum foil, wrapping it on the neck.

Altered Household Items by Guest DT Richa

To alter the pen stand, follow the same steps. Cover it with mod podge, layers of tissue paper and black gesso/acrylic paint. Leave it to dry. To embellish punch out some flowers and emboss the petals with embossing tool. I have added the button in the shape of a butterfly and have also added plastic embellishment spelling 'Dear Friend' To Make this/For More Details Click here


Revamp Old Chocolate Tray Into Home Décor by DT Pavitra
