Ok now on to my Explosion Box!! I decided to make a birthday box for my BFF Ashley her birthday is next week and I got her a gift card {she is hard to shop for lol} I didn't just want to hand her a gift card so this is what I came up with!
Happy Birthday form Forks, WA?? I live in San Antonio lol
Here is the box opened up....
AHH makes sense now lol! My friend is a die hard twilight fan a Twihard!
I knew she would just Flip over this! I used her favorite characters from the movie!
Alice, Edward, Jacob, and her so called future Hubby Jasper! I made a little pop up gift card holder to go in the middle {I just noticed I put the card backwards lol its late!}
Here are close ups of all the characters
First is Edward
Jacob
Jasper {AKA Future Hubby}
and finally Alice
I also added on the second layer, each of the four books
How do you like my Twilight Explosion Box? I can't wait to give it to her! It was a lot of work but totally worth it! I am so happy with it! Those Greeting Farm stamps are too cute!
I have a little candy of my own to give one of you! Want a Greeting Farm stamp all of your own?! Well I am giving away 1 stamp of your choice from the greeting farm, just leave a comment,I would love for you to follow me if you would like but it is not a requirement!
Ok My Bloggy Friends it is time for you to hop on over to the next blog, which is my fabulous co-host Zeni@ Scrappy Zeni and check out what awesomeness she has created! Thanks for stopping by and have an AWESOME weekend!!

Love the explosion box. The theme is really cool. I am sure your friend is going to LOVE it. It's funny, when I saw it opened with the characters each in their own space, I thought "office cubicles" and something similar would be great from a group of people in an office setting! So you sparked an idea for me.
