Hot Air Balloon with Explosion Box

Hi Friends,

I’m very happy to share my project today, which is a Hot air balloon with an explosion box.

Days are getting hotter and we are escaping to the mountains for some time. Before we leave, I wanted to participate in few challenges and complete my craft projects.

For this one, I made my own template (A bit of experiment here; first I made a small one to check if all measurements are fine and it is actually looking like what I want , Then made this).  Wanted to make it in a lighter shade and then I found this paper pack completely matching my thoughts. A lot of fussy cutting and laces, ribbons and pearls to give a shabby chic yet neat look to it. On the top I attached a lace that I stitched in a circular shape and on top of that a flower that goes with the theme. The balloon can be hanged if it is empty.

For the box, I made a circular box inside the exploding box to keep chocolates r small gift, as the theme here is Birthday and tagged it as “A birthday to remember”. All the sides of the box are decorated with hand cut designs out of the paper from same paper pack. I have kept 4 tags to write r to paste pictures (2two under the circular box and two on a side panel).

Here’s the photos…

Hope You liked my project.
