Red dahlia exploding box card with matching gift boxCompleted by Lisa Ann Lee

Lots of cutting, but very much worth the effort! I printed on regular cardstock, then followed the great written and photo directions included, using both scissors and craft knife.

The only thing I did different was - because I needed to ship it and so required very very sturdy- I used craft glue instead of foam tape everywhere but the top of the lids.

Then I added a small gem in the center of the dahlia. I was really impressed with all the sentiment choices that included what you'd expect but went much further with "Auntie, "Granddaughter," "Grandma," "Sister," and more.
