A couple of weeks ago, Kittie and I were oohing and aahing over the beautiful explosion boxes by Elaine at Magic-Boxes.com - since neither of us had really done anything like these before, we decided to give it a go together! Hope you'll check out her project too, and let us know what you think! Kittie's our newest DT member at Impression Obsession, and it is such a treat to work with her!Kittie and I decided we would try these just for fun, and not allow ourselves to be stressed over them. I don't know how her process went, but knowing her detailed work, I'm sure hers will be much more impressive than mine. I chose not to stress. I laughed. A lot. At myself. I am just not skilled with dimensional projects. It's why I work on small canvases, and I have no decorations in my house.
All the dies I used are from Impression Obsession. I also used a smaller butterfly punch from Martha Stewart.
I love how you captured a lovely outdoor butterfly scene, Dina! The tree branches, nest and butterflies are so perfect. Maybe we should challenge each other again to do a snowflake and snowman one. Yikes! LOL!

Mama Dini, your project is gorgeous! Love those exploding butterflies (ha!) And your beautiful leaves and twigs. Outstanding!
