Christmas Floral Rhapsody Exploding Box Surprise Kit.Completed by Margaret McCartney

I printed the box and the lid onto cream 300 gsm card. I printed the liner cards plus the top and bottom panels also onto 300gsm card. I printed the internal pockets and tags plus all the other elements onto 255 gsm good quality photographic paper.

I attached each side of the box to the base using strong double sided tape. I added the internal panels and the pockets also using strong double sided tape. I placed a tag in each pocket. These can be used to write a message on. I assembled the lid using wet glue.

I added the top and side panels, printed onto good quality 255 gsm photographic paper, to the lid using strong double sided tape and foam pads.

I assembled the bow using wet glue and attached it to the lid using strong double sided tape. I added the other elements to the lid using foam pads. I assembled the church, trees and carol singers using strong double sided tape and attached then to the base as instructed.

I added a tea light to the inside of the church and switched it on. I also added acetate to the windows of the church. I intend to add the fence around this scene. Amazing value for money and a wonderful gift for a family member or friend this Christmas.
