My brother in law recently celebrated his 70th birthday so I had to come up with a special card. Whilst looking through my stash I came across an old kit for an exploding box card. The quality of the card was not as good as I would like so I glued everything onto some 300 gsm card stock and added some extra touches. The end result turned out quite well. I added a small card to put my greeting on.
