Created by one sentimental heart, for another 💜
This explosion box was requested by a grandmother for her granddaughter’s 15th birthday, both cherishing memories, nostalgia, and the little details that matter most. Filled with custom illustrations of her hobbies and wrapped in soft purples, blush, and rose gold, this is a keepsake meant to be treasured for years to come ✨

Some craft days are smooth and productive… and others come with a few speed bumps ✂️
Kicking off the new year with a graduation cap card and this one had it all: a sharp tweezer mishap, slippery embroidery floss that did not want to cooperate, and a few patience-testing paper crafting moments.
But in the end, the finished piece is always worth it 🎓

As I start the year growing my handmade stationery work and officially launching my wedding invitation business , I’m embracing every part of the process - messy moments and all.

This week, I had the joy of creating a personalized wedding explosion box for a client with a “Black Tie and Lilly Pulitzer” theme—perfectly aligned with my own tastes! The box features a luxurious black base with a floral pattern and gold foil accents, making it a stunning keepsake for the occasion. Inside, you’ll find a note card sleeve, confetti bubble, calendar, and a 3D heart-shaped note, with the Cake Slice box and 3D florals as the centerpiece. So excited with how this turned out!

Is 2025 a big wedding year for you? Looking for the perfect personalized keepsake to gift the happy couple?
