Crazy crafting: new cards and a new box

It's been ungodly hot lately, and I had to spend endless hours at work without anything meaningful to do - not really good for writing, but very handy for crafting. I made some more cards and an explosion box Mum has asked for, since one of her friends had name-day lately.

Let's start with the cards; nothing really artistic, just playing with paper application:

And now the box. This is what it looks like when closed:



And the same when opened:

Currently, I'm working on two more explosion boxes as farewell gifts for two beloved colleagues who're going to retire within the month (the lucky dogs!) and hiding in shame from the picowrimo crowd for not having done any quality writing lately.
