Default Bree's Explosion Box

This is probably a dumb question, but I'll ask it anyways!

I am just getting started in trying some hybrid projects and I thought I would give the Explosion Box a whirl. Before I buy it, do I need to print at 12 x 12 to do this project? If I do, I need to run out and buy some paper. LOL! I wasn't sure from the product description. Can anyone help me out with what I need?

Thanks...

Hi there!

Nope, you don't need to print 12x12 but you DO need some 12x12 cardstock in coordinating colors with the digi kit that you'll use. Everything else is just printed on 8.5x11 paper.

Here's the one I made.

That is so cute, Libby! You've inspired me to try my hand at making one.

Thanks for answering so quickly, Libby!!

All of my workshops are created to be printed on regular 8.5x11 printer paper so that anyone with a printer can play along! Some may choose to arrange theirs on 12x12 and send to a professional printer, but these all can be done at home!

I was scared too but I made the box itself (undecorated pages, wanted to see how easy it would be to make the box first!!) and it was pretty quick and fairly easy. I WILL be making a bunch for gifts though, how fun they are.

They really do look harder than they are...and I worked really hard to make sure the directions are REALLY clear about what you're doing with each step. Give it a try, and if you get stuck, I'm just a PM or email away!!
