Hey everyone!! 

I am late to the game but I am pleased to be offering a crop class on exploding boxes!  Together we will go step by step and at the end you will have one fabulous box to decorate and keep or give as a super cool gift.  I hope you'll join me on Sunday at 3pm for some fun creating.  You know we will have a blast!

Aside from papers you will need a trimmer/craft knife, ruler, pencil, eraser, adhesive, and something to score with (I use my embossing stylus). You may also want ink, a corner rounder, and embellishments to match your papers.  We will not have time to fully embellish our boxes during the class but we will complete the structure and pages and you can embellish on your own.  For this class I will be using these papers (but you may use what you have on hand):

 So if we just pick out 8 pieces of PP, we can make it work, right?  I just placed my dern order last night.

Yes... as long as you have enough PP for: 1 outer layer, 1 cover, and 4-6 for covering the inner pages (plus two coordinating cardstock sheets) you will be able to follow along.  I just wanted folks to be able to use the exact papers if they wanted to. 

 Sweet!
I'm gonna have to try to remember this one cuz I want to make one for sure!

 I'm marking it down on my calender.  Now I just have to figure out what papers to use since I'm not placing an order.

 I so need this.  I will definitely put this on my to do list.  Thanks tons.

 OMGosh....I am so excited about this class. You can definitely count me in.

 Awesome! I'm so excited

I hope I can join. But if I don't, I'll be checking it out later for sure. Thanks!

 VERY cool Jess! I'll be on vacation again starting that Sunday. I'm hoping you'll put it in writer format too so we can have it on the blog with the rest of the classes? OR, you could always PM me a link to your thread so I can find it later!
