I have a Gorgeous Explosion box to share with you today and I also have a tutorial on how I made the Hot Air Balloon inside. 
The paper collection I have used to make the project is the Pink Smoke paper collection and it comes in two sizes, a 12*12 and a 6*6 paper pack along with the Motif Sheet. The Motif sheet is a set of 2 which includes a lot of complimentary images to go along with the paper pack along with a few sentiments, which makes Dress My Craft paper collection is true blue paper pack.

Let's check out the project.

Excited? Let me show you the inside of this paper pack before I take you on a tour of the closeup pictures. 

When I had opted to pick the Pink Smoke paper pack as a part of my DT kit, I had already had an idea about the project that I would be making with this paper pack. I truly loved the paper pack for its purples and pinkish hues. 
Let's check out the complete box. Do stay till the end for the tutorial on how I made this cute little Hot air balloon using the 2 inch Circle punch from Dress My Craft.

I loved these little butterflies dangling from the lid of the box.

The motif sheet that comes along with the paper pack is a total boon. One really doesn't need to look beyond in search of co-ordinating images and text.

I hope you liked the project and do check out the video below for the tutorial on how to make the Hot air balloon.
