Botanical Butterflies & Flowers Explosion Box


I love these "Explosion Boxes", they are absolutely perfect to package that unique and perfect gift inside for a  special occasion for a special recipient. These boxes are not hard to make but they are time consuming and take lots of contemplating just the right touches for each section that you just know the recipient is going to absolutely love. Now here are the basics to get you started.....the decorating is all yours...make it a memorable, personal and unforgettable gift.
Use themes, family tree, photo's etc.
here is a closer look at some of the flowers. Yes, all were made from the daisy punch.

Now here is a photo of an open explosion box (I've not finished yet)
