Exploding Book/Card for Halloween



My friend Judy showed me the exploding books she's been making. I loved her idea and decided to try it on a smaller scale. She was using 12x12 sheets and I tried 8x8. I like the smaller version...it works better for me. Please have fun with it though...try whatever size you like! I made a template (see the link below in the supply list) so it's easier to see how to do the folds and assembly.
