A Musical Box Card

Exploding Musical Box Card
Hi friends sharing my DT project for Crafters Corner- a  special exploding box card featuring a rotating piano and real music playing .



Do click on this short video to see the little piano rotating and the music playing while it does!
Piano Card
Here is my piano dressed up in glitter and a handmade red foam rose! I made all the red foam roses in this project using a Spellbinders Baubble Blossom 1 die but you can also make foam flowers by hand cutting  foam : Foam rose tutorial 1 and Foam rose tutorial 2 ]
Foam roses
On one panel of the exploding box, stamped "Love" and added a book style charm which opens to reveal a script inside!
Foam roses
This panel has a stamped bird silhouette+ musical notes, a bird charm ,fussy cut bird cage, a memory box die fence and more foam roses.
Handmade roses
Clock stamps are such useful stuff to have in a crafters armament and here I used it to depict " Timeless Love" And I think I am losing count of how many birds are in this project. The bird cage charm is a personal favorite!
Bird Charm
Another singing bird charm and a  silver "Key to my Heart" [ cut with Spellbinders Lacey heart die]
