Magic Explosion Card

Hey there?

Are you having a crafty time? Well we had a fab April with you all, thank you for all your love and support!

It's May and we, the Lulu Poohs would be sharing a whole new variety of Different card fold techniques for you to try this month! Did you checkout Khushboo's fab Six Fold Card Tutorial? It totally rocks and a must try! Super easy and fun!

So am here with a Magic explosion card. Its my favourite so far and i have made so many that now i've lost a count! I know i dont have a tutorial but i was in such a hurry to complete this one on a special request for a 25th Anniversary and had to be shipped a long way! But maybe another time :)

So it was a 25th Anniversary and it would usually be gliterati ? Right? Hmmm, well I went on softer tones of green, pink and orange with a dash of blue. And I feel its one of my best explosion cards and it was pretty hard parting with it.(am sure you know this feeling, wink) I knew i had to use these gorgeous lilies so i changed my usual paper cake to a 2 tier lacy cake with frosty sparkles.

So behold, its a picture heavy post! Hope you enjoy it.

  4. Its awesome box. Lovely papers and lilies are added. n Most lovable part is having few lovable pics of the couple. They can write anything on the other side which they would cherish forever. Loved it. I thought of leaving this crafting as my purpose is over now. but since I joined loads of crfaters now , everyday some or other creation inspire me to the core. Great job Karuna. Keep it up.
