Well, that got your attention didn't it! LOL
In keeping with Angels Landing DT challenge this week, "Think Small", 3 inches or less, I made this little Explosion Box.
I used Pierced Pansies and Pierced Violet Leaves. That's the cool thing about digital images, you can size them any way you want! This box measures 2.5 square by 2.75 high. The sentiment is a rubber stamp from Our Daily Bread designs, Friendship.
When it's closed up and everything is scrunched together!
Then, take the lid off and SPROINGGGGG...
it explodes into life!
The Pansies and Violet Leaves are on acetate, the cute little dragonfly buttons are on wire (I wrapped it around a tiny dowel).
The leaves at the base are a Cuttlebug die, airbrushed with a Copic marker. I cut and scored 2 pieces of K & Company DP the same, then cut the inside down a little so it looked layered. It isn't... I just fauxed it with Copics and a ruler!
Two Spellbinders Decorative Photo Corners on each corner...they overlapped just enough that it looks like one continuous piece!
All of the flowers and leaves are colored with Copics, pierced and painted partially with Angel Wings Shimmerz. Flower Soft is in the center of each one. Only the lid flowers and leaves did I faux stitch with a fine tip pen.
I cut around some of the petals and also broke down the paper fibers of the leaves and flowers by curling and bending, so they'd have more of a natural appearance.
Stop by the Angels Landing blog to see what the other girls did.
thanks for stopping!
