Magic Box - Suitcase shape

A friend wanted to surprise her husband on his 40th with a trip to San Francisco. She had a friend get him to the airport and se was standing there with suitcases and this box. 

San Francisco Suitcase

This has all of their favorite places to visit while there.

I found this map of San Francisco online and printed it out on cardstock. I folded it up and then crumpled it up so it looked well used.

Another friend's daughter was graduating from college. She wanted to surprise her with a trip to New York and have a gift card in it.

Magic Box - Christmas sleigh

I have been wanting to try a magic box or exploding box. The girls I work out with wanted to give our trainer a gift card so I made a box to put it in.

Inside.

The three empty flaps is where we all signed our Merry Merry's.

I cut the deer and sleigh from Create-a-Critter. I made two cuts and then put them together so they would stand. For the sleigh I added a piece in the back to spread it so it would hold the gift card. I think for my first attempt turned out pretty good.
