Exploding Photo Box

I have been seening loads of ladies creating exploding photo boxes on Crafty Bums so I thought I would have a try at one for my mother-in-law.

First hurdle was all of the tutorials I found were in inches... and for some reason I don't have a single tape measure, or ruler in the house that has inches on apart from our huge 7m one for use in the garden. So after trying to adjust all of the measurements for cms I got started.

I haven't done the decoration or added the pictures yet (minor issue with the printer running out of ink) but that is next weeks project. I really like them. In the end I used a recommended tutorial on Glitter Adventures it's an old one but it works.
