It’s getting to be that time of year…goblins will appear anywhere so you’d better be prepared to capture them inside this fun and friendly keepsake! Cut Cardstock’s 12 x 12 cardstock comes in a huge variety of colors, but I went with the obvious orange and black for my Halloween Explosion Box.
I’ve created a handy tutorial PDF with all the instructions, plus lots of photos, so you can make these boxes for your friends and family. While they may look complicated, they’re really quite simple to make.
I used some older Karen Foster and Stampin’ Up! patterned Halloween papers, a Nestabilities die and Martha Stewart bat punch, plus some sheer ribbon, tulle, rhinestone stickers, tiny brads and mini metal clips.
