Explosion Box with Flying Hearts

By Larissa Fyodorovna 

“Hello everyone!

I feel that there is a lot of romance in February, probably to do with Valentine’s Day.

So I definitely wanted to create something pretty with the Mon Amour Collector’s Edition!

The designs and motifs are perfect for this theme.

You may already know that I like to cut out suitable motifs to create compositions.

This time is no exception. My explosion box has a cute little surprise inside – little flying hearts.

I punched them out with a puncher and let them hang down from the lid on a nylon thread.

I hope you like my explosion box.

-Tips-

– To achieve the effect of three-dimensionality, spacers can be inserted between the layers.

– The roses from the Rose Bouquet Collection set in colours Precious Pink and Ivory & Natural Linen already go very well with this collection.

Incidentally, they react excellently to liquid colour. So you can optionally give them colour gradients or shimmer.
