December New Release Blog Hop - Your Next Stamp

Whoo hoo!  It's release time at Your Next Stamp.  November's release was such a huge hit thanks to all of you, that I am pretty sure you will love this months too.  This release has so many super FUN sets and I will have to say that I cannot pick just one favorite.  However, the set of Boom which my projects will feature is certainly in my top 3!

With this set of Boom, I could not resist making an explosion box card to feature this with.  I actually was able to use everything in the set.  Usually, there are just a few go-to images or sentiments, but this set has so many uses.  I stamped the images on top of the cut outs from the coordinating Boom die set before coloring them in with Copics.  I assembled the box according to instructions found on SCS and even adding a few fire end pieces on some acetate to make them wobble and move a bit when the box is open.  The sentiment on the inside was made to look like a bomb which I made using a round die and making the top portion myself.  Here is the closed box and sentiment:

This box does lie flat and will fit into a standard A2 envelope.  A super fun project to make with this set. 

 

 

For my second project, I couldn't resist using Boom as a tag for some bath bombs.  Perfect for teachers or friends who would enjoy these relaxing items.

Again, I used the coordinating die and stamped the bomb image over it.  I colored it with Copics and made a tag for it to be popped up on.  The sentiment background explosion was hand cut and also popped up. I added some ribbon to complete the look and is ready for giving!
