Here is a simple fun way to use the exploding box templates. For this demo, I used the scalloped exploding box to make a little album for a family member.
I started off with the largest base piece and added photos and frames to the four outer squares on the side that will be on the inside of the box.
I then added photos and frames to the medium and small bases. After doing this, I applied adhesive to the middle of the underside of my medium and small bases and centered the medium over the large and the small over the medium.
I decided it needed a little more, so I added some die cuts to the other side of my bases as shown.
To close, simple fold up the sides and slide on the lid:
Endless possibilities for these boxes. Use embellishments of any kind. Even hide a gift in the middle! The funnest part about these boxes, is that when you pull of the lid, the EXPLODE!
