Explosion Box with MME American Made Collection

I created an explosion box intended as a gift wrap for my nephew that just came back from Afghanistan a few weeks back.  His birthday is the tomorrow, but he always gets patriotic themed parties, etc.  And what a perfect paper is My Mind's Eye American Made

I found a tutorial at Splitcoaststampers that I liked using a Spellbinders die for the cover. Actually it is the YouTube video on the link and not the actual tutorial that I used to guide me on making the cover. I already knew how to make the bottom part.  It is really very easy! 

You can find the MME American Made Collection over at  Happy N Scrappin'
