Two posts in one day, I'll meet myself coming back soon! 😁  I had a request for an exploding box for a wedding.  The brief was neutral colours with a hint of music and somewhere to put some money.  I made the cake using a circle of card for the top and strips of card long enough to go around the circumference of the circle then snipped into it along one of the long edges so it would bend and glue to the top.  I made three of these in different sizes and decorated with ribbon and paper flowers.

I made two pockets on the inside, one to hold a card for a message and one to hold some money.  I hope my customer likes it.
