Memory Box/Card
My latest project was a special card for a great friend.
This is not my own design but an amalgamation of a few similar boxes I had seen on YouTube, in particular, and worth checking out NGOC Vang. This is a great memory box and I mixed the ideas from this Explosion Box, with an explosion card I have made before and then butterflies popping up in the middle.
The outer box is made from a sheet of 12 x 12 card stock scored at 10cm and 20cm on each side, to make 9 squares. Another piece of 12 x 12 was used to cut the 4 hearts to line the corners, and the 4 pieces of card 14.6cm x 6cm scored at 2cm on the 2 short sides and 1 long side. I then cut the corners and folded each of the scored edges over a 9.5cm square of plain card. This is a holder for the additions embellishments/tags/notelets etc .
The Inner box is made from a piece of coordinating card stock 9” x 9” and scored at 3” and 6”.
The corners are made the same as the outer box and each side has a black card photo mat
The centre has been decorated with butterflies stickers on acetate strips, at different heights.
Thus being the first one I made the whole box took me 5hrs. So this is one for someone special.
Happy Crafting
