Monday's Die Cuts- Explosion Box decorated w/ die cuts

By
Hi Friends, Sandy here for Monday's Die Cuts Project featuring embellishments.
But first my tip for you: cut more than you need and store away for another day
The cartridges I used for this project are: Life's a Beach, A Child's Year, Stamping, Graphically Speaking.
  I just did an Explosion Mini Album for a swap.  I love the wow factor that I get with these and they are soooo simple! I have lots of pictures for you...

You can find a great tutorial for the Explosion Box HERE  You can create a template for you box if you use the Gypsy or CCR to weld all your squares together. This is a great way to make a lot of these at one time without having to measure and cut every layer over and over.

 Now for my die cuts, using my Cricut machine:
  • Summer- cut at 1.25" from Stamping cart
  • Memories- cut at .75" from Graphically Speaking

  • These images cut at 2.25" from A Child's Year 


  • These images cut at .5 to 1.5" from Life's a Beach 


  • Here are them all together including ones fro Stamping cart and Graphically Speaking 


  • Here are pictures of the inside of the album. Went with a summer theme throughout...






  • And here is the final product...



I hope your enjoyed today's project too. If you have a question, please leave it in the comments, and a DT member will get back to you. You can find more inspiration and projects at my blog: A Working Mom's Joy. Also, you can join up to our Facebook group: Scrapbook Blessings Club for more fun, games, inspiration, tips and techniques.      

 Hope you have a blessed day and thanks for stopping by,
SANDY,
