Exploding Mini Box Album

Hi Crafters

I know, this sounds a mouthful, but when you see the pictures you will get what I mean.
I found this on YouTube, on Positively Papercraft site.
It can be made from

1 piece of 12 x 11 card

1 12 x 12 to cover the box base

1 12 x 12 cut into 4 strips 6.8mm and then cut lengths of 3” score each piece at 6.8mm

Needless to say I wanted to make a bigger version and did this using 

2 x A3  joined by scoring at 28cm

4 x 12 x 12

A3 card from the join score 10cm, 20cm and cut off remainder of that side

From the join the other side score 10cm, 20cm 24cm 26cm cut remainder off

Place on Score board shortest side at the top and score 10, 30cm 40cm cut at the 40cm line

Score 6cm each side down from the top to the end of the first square section

Looking at the paper flat on the desk laid out like an A3 card

Cut out the bottom side panels

Leave the next side panels in and cut out the 3 side panels

The lid Flap: cut out the 6cm side pieces and the top 2cm section on the top of the 4cm panels

Cut from the top of the card to the first panel piece of the 4cm panel

Use 2 of the 12 x 12 to decorate the main box

Cut the other 2 12 x 12 3 lengths of 9.5cm and then cut each strip into 4” pieces score at 9.5cm

As you can see the box opens and each side has 9 photo mats measuring 3.5" square, and then fall like a waterfall card inside, making a total of 18, plus the inside of the box has 2 panels that can have photographs or have a small folder section added to store tickets and other memorabilia 

I think this is so cute, and woudl make a lovely momento for a bridesmaid or prom.
