Certifiably nuts is what I called myself when I finished this project of an explosion box. I don't know what I am going to do with it now but it is certainly adorable. I did it for a challenge from Magnolicous Birthday bash here. The boxes that I have seen are so wonderful. You Ladies did a super job.
Here is my top using Longing Tilda:
I stamped Dream twice using two different shades of purples. The little flowers are punches from other parts of the project. The dp is Euphoria from basic grey. Tilda is colored with Copics.
Here is the front using Wilma. You can see the punch I used around the lid of the top. That 's where the punch-outs come from on the sides.
Now a picture of the side:
Of course what has Tilda been dreaming of? Well that comes next on the inside.
What little girl doesn't dream of becoming a ballerina. You can see that Wilma was throwing flowers at Tilda's feet. Here is a close-up of Tilda.
I originally left the corners in but decided it was too fussy that way so I cut them out. Tilda has a rhinestone in her tiara, stickles on her dress and diamond glaze on her shoes. Here is a close up of the floor.
What a wonderful project but I still need to figure out what to do with it.
Hope you enjoyed. And as always I enjoy your comments.

Very pretty. I love how it opens up to the ballerina.
This is so delightfully thought out Peggie! You must know some little girl who would be so excited about getting such a treasure! Your little ballerina is wonderfully colored and I love what you did with the ribbon and flowers around her feet! Very very cute!!!
Gorgeous!!! I think you deserve flowers thrown at your feet..lol
You did a wonderful job!! Tilda is coloured wonderfully and your papers are so pretty and feminine.
