Large Waterfall Explosion Box Design Team Project for Country Craft Creations
What a fun fun project this was and so very easy to do. This is a huge explosion box with tons of waterfalls inside.

 This explosion box measures 7 1/2 X 8 with an 8X8 lid. The Graphic 45 St. Nicholas collection is what I used to create this fun holiday project. I matted some of the cut a parts and popped them up for dimension on the lid. I also created the pretty fun 'ribbon' using red cardstock and the We R Memory Keepers Envelope Punch Board. Some pretty golden edged leaves with golden berries finishes the dimensional embellishments on the lid. I papered the entire box inside and out and used black cardstock as the base. Cut a parts that have been matted grace every side of the box.


The pretty lid with the cardstock bow and dimensional elements

Remove the lid and let the box open to reveal all the fabulous waterfalls!

Each of the waterfalls are held closed by decorative magnetic closures. There are 2 styles of waterfalls on the sides of the box, the front and back flaps have the same style, and the 2 sides have the same styles. On the front and back waterfalls, on each page back there is a pocket that holds a matted tag. This tag is large enough to hold a photo or journaling. So much space in this explosion box for tons of photos and journaling.

The side waterfalls are also held closed with decorative magnetic closures to keep those photos safe and in place.

On the side waterfalls, every 'other' page back has a pocket with a matted tag, otherwise the page is decorated with a full size beautiful holiday cut a part. Such a festive Christmas Explosion Box!!

In the center of the box, you will find some pretty matted magnetic cut a parts. These magnetic closures (2) each hold a large accordion pull out with yet another waterfall underneath!

Open one side and pull the accordion page out to reveal more and more space for treasured photos. Both sides are papered with the beautiful collection.

Expand the other side (both showing pulled) and what a fun hidden interactive area!

Under those accordion pulls, you will find yet another waterfall!!! This one operates as an alternating page waterfall......open one side then the next etc. Lots of interactives in this explosion box!

Such a fun interactive Christmas Explosion Box. This box is plenty large enough to also add a 'gift' inside the box without hindering the waterfall. Such a fun way to give a gift and such a fun gift to receive.
