Magic Explosion Box

Magic Explosion box.View from the top.

 

Magic spills out the moment the lid is taken off the box.

Hi peeps!
I spent my Saturday night and Sunday morning very constructively.And I am beaming from ear to ear...why?Because I fulfilled my dream of making an Explosion Box with the help of  dear friend and blogger Karuna.She patiently answered my incessant questions and helped me with the dimensions too.After all she is an expert Explosion Box maker.Here and here is the link to her beautiful boxes.
We have a ladies club meet coming up and the theme is FUSION.I racked my tiny brains for two nights and guess when did the Light Bulb moment arrive...While Brushing my teeth.!!!...Maybe the action must have brushed some dust over my brains too.But then it is the bathroom where all my creative ideas start forming.That's the quietest and most clutter free spot in my house...not to forget most PEACEFUL too.
Okay enough digressing.....My logic behind the explosion box is that it is a fusion of a box and a card....and  a pretty deceptive card at that.It is impossible to judge from this Box's outer appearence...what lies inside.What do you think? Let me know.
Some detail shots of the fun elements.

Unity stamp. to add to the feminine touch

The tag with a tea pot...high tea right? winks!!!!

The invite with a silhouette

Another tag with heat embossing and some distressing.

A dress perched on a pedestal---More to woman power

handmade flower inspired by lKalindi( not half as nice as hers)

This is how it looks when the ribbon is opened.

One more Ladies club invitation

Hi Peeps!
Very bad day today.Power cut since 5 in the morning...comp low on battery and was asked to make a card for another senior lady in one hour.
manged to take a print out on inverter and this is the best I could do in one hour.The sketch is from the Sweet stop but can't enter the challenge because it has a twist associated with its challenge ;the cards should be based on Christmas in July...so hard luck.
Well here is my card.
The insides.The image is from The Greeting farm which I won .The bling is from (who else?)Pie Lane.The gems,frames and ribbon are from my stash. The dp is from activity Village.
Thanks for passing by.
Hugs!
Thanks for your comments on my white on white card.So many encouraging words. made my day.
