Two Completed Exploding Boxes

I finished the brown and green Exploding box which I decided to make for my Sister, I'm going to put it in her Christmas box (so hopefully she won't be looking on here), Tanya is very interested in researching our family tree and finding out about our Maiden Name which is Drackett-Case. she has so far manged to trace the family line back to the 1730's when it looks like they came to the UK. she has also traced family in the States, Canada and Oz.

I used some of the photos (scanned) that our grandparents had in an old biscuit tin under their bed, and a poem from here

I love the papers they are from my K&Co bumper box.

Prima flowers and sticky gems, Foof-a-La buttons and some ribbon from my stash.

This box I made this afternoon, for a friend at work, she has a house and garden full of animals and we often chat through lunch about what they have been geting up to, most of her cats are under a year and they are all still into everything and always causing mischief for her.

I used Bazzill CS again for this project and Rusty Pickle Papers.

Prima flowers, gems and foof-a-La buttons.

I just love making these little boxes and am sure there will be many more to come......... Hummmmmmmmmmmmmmm who should I make one for next???
