Craft Along: Grad Explosion Box
It’s time for another Silhouette Craft Along video! Make a grad explosion box for the graduate in your life! This is a fun 3D paper craft to give away — full of treats or cash or gift cards or whatever!
When you lift the lid, the sides “explode” to expose four fill-able boxes and a message to the graduate.
Want to make one? It’s easy! Here’s the instructional video. (You’ll find links to the design and supplies below the video.)
